11 Minute Castle Time on Black Forest!?

[@josephstevens5489]

5:24 I want a function for capture age - at the end of the game you can play the game backwards until it reaches the point where the unit who killed the most was created, and then you can play the game forwards again, with the view lock on that unit, and watch it's story unfold

Thanks to Capture Age, we know that MbL had 25 villagers idle while pulling off all that amazing micro.

Well when you still have about 120 villagers working, the 25 idles don't make quite as much of a difference.

and that he had 30 minute wheel, heavy plow, and basic mining upgrades which make the timeline look pretty but don't actually result in more resources. A 1600 could have gotten that army out with a 15 minute castle time and taking all of those boar on the way up to castle age.

[@Creed97xy]

@@ryannayr140 that is just straight up wrong. First he got wheelbarrow at 22 minutes which is roughly 1-2 minutes later than a "normal" boom and he had 30+ more vills than all the other players from minutes 20 onwards and that does resolve in having more res. That would even resolve in more res if you didn't make any eco uprgrades at all. He had 3 TCs up and running from minute 15.33. That is insane! Why can people not appreciate such a masterpiece/talent?

Also, this is a good time to say this since T90 brings up the Food per minute in this video; Mongol hunt is THE FASTEST FOOD SOURCE IN THE GAME. Yes you read that right. Even faster than Indian fishing vils. Hunting and fishing gather at the same rate (22 fpm) but fishing is usually more E-Fish-ient because fish dont decay. Indian fishers gather 15% faster meaning that they gather (25.3 fpm) Mongol hunt gathers 50% faster (33 fpm) Just dont ask me how far Britain crossbows can range

God I love you! For the CA team, it's great what they have done for the game, but I find that it would be less clutterd if the creation queue of the unit at the top left we oriented in the other direction.

You can wall of choke points which means most player won't attack until imperial because it's not worth the resources. A lot noob players like it because they can build up a base without getting rushed. More experienced players doesn't like because it's about slow paced to play.

All of these players are way better than me, but I still have tons of fun playing this game. That defense from I didn't do nothing was very impressive to me and I really need to work on getting my castle age quicker, but I get caught up making vils and researching stuff probably way too early.
