A video in the future on good beginner habits, and how to gain information and what tells should lead to what conclusions could be helpful. I'm very new and while I may execute my Age I-II build order well enough for my level, sometimes I can't tell during the game if I should boom or rush, I don't know how to place my Oracles, when I should take berries vs when to take a hunt away from my base, how to gather information about the opponent and how to respond to things they do. I realise you have covered these topics during other videos but I guess I'd benefit from talk about how to apply general principles I suppose? Similar to chess where they say control the center and don't leave hanging pieces I suppose. Your content helps a lot!

Amazing content as always, you're gonna make our task to understand the game really easy bringing so much details! I agree with the tier list and there are a couple of things I don't like about Raiding Cavarly which is the training time (18s is kinda slow) and the fact that you need a building costing 135 resources to get them. About the Poseidon special Hetaroi I didn't know the AoE thing for them are that good, I can see a strategy where you get Spirited Charge, Lord of the Horses and Tracian Horses to mass produce those in mythical, they would be really hard to kill with all those upgrades

Thanks for another very educational video! I can understand why you didn't want to get into all the tech, but I think some techs that really change the value of the unit and shape your whole strategy should be addressed. You already talked about Njord's Ring Giver being such a game changer for Jarls with its 25% HP and the bonus against myth units (especially if you also got Freya's Thundering Hooves for another 10% HP and 10% speed). Here are some more: - Osiris' Desert Wind is insane for Camels with 20% HP, attack and speed, especially if you're Ra and already get 15% HP. It's a myth tech of course, but worth rushing. - Toth's elephants with Tusks of the Apedemak 10% attack and pop/cost reduction and Valley of the Kings for fast production and a essentially half the cost (on one Migdol at least) makes elephants spammable. - Dionysus' Thracian Horses gives 30% lifesteal with the newest patch I think and afaik also works with the splash of Hetairos. In any case, fully upgraded Hetairos (Lord of Horses, Spirited Charge, Dionysia and Oympian Weapons) sound super strong. - Speaking of Hermes' Spirited Charge, that's a classical tech that makes Hippeus slightly faster than RC with its 10% speed and attack. Freyja' Thundering Hooves can do the same thing for RC in classical though. - Lastly, Theia makes Contarius even better with Lance of Stone giving them 15% attack and 30% slow and Poseidon's Secret 10% speed and -15% cost (bonus points for raiding when being Oranos with +4 LoS on all units, giving them 18). Also, while Hippeus are slower than RC, all three Greek gods can upgrade LoS from 12 to 16 in classical (Poseidon's Lord of Horses or Apollo's Oracle) which can be similarly important. There are also relics for 10% speed and +6 LoS, that make mobility abuse of Hippeus and RC even more viable if you find them (and there's a 10% HP one for even more insane Hetairos and Migdol units).

Jarl is just missing something. I can understand if they want the Jarl to be the “high base stat” Heavy Cavalry, but it just doesn’t bring enough to the table. In my opinion, I think they should give the Jarl an effect that reduces the effect of anti-cav bonus damage it takes by like 50%. I don’t think it’s really designed to be an oppressive presence on the map so much as it is to lead the charge and sponge up damage when you’re sieging your opponents base late game. The problem is, anti-cav multipliers are so high, and units like the prodromos exist, so the idea of “bulky frontline cav” just doesn’t really work in practice. Jarls die too quickly and are outmaneuvered too easily by other cavalry.

Jarl feels like it’s there as a way to dodge anti-infantry damage by throwing in a high statted but slower cavalry, surprise someone who went in on Hypatists or Axeman-Slinger. They’re not bad though, with no reliance on bonus damage, they’re a decent generalist, and with maybe a dash extra health, they’d serve a decent tank role.

I think Hetairos beats even camels if you have a good mass (they also have more speed than shown in your table thanks to Poseidon). An area damage of 2.5 is brutal when there is significant mass. Maybe Prodromos, Hirdman, Katapeltes and myth units are the only thing that stop that unit in Late Game. S-Tier in my opinion.

I think you messed up the math on survivability a lot. You multiplied the HP by the armor which doesn't make sense. If a unit has 100hp and 99% armor. It's effective HP is not 199 it's 10,000. This makes a big difference at higher armor values. In this case making the Prodromos looking tankier then it is since most other units should have higher survivability number. What you want to do is divide the HP by 1 - armor%. So for Hippeus Pierce armor it would be 150 / (1 - 0.40) = 250 effective hp. Much different from 210 effective hp if you did it your way.

Nice Magic! Also, keep in mind for those who are stat goblins like me, the stats here such as speed is not factoring in extra Minor God related tech (these are just the base versions), such as Freyja for Norse Cavalry, Poseidon+Hermes, Theia+Lush for Contarius and so on =) So best case scenario this actually moves Contarius up to the top at 7.7 Speed with the Lush+Theia combo and Camel Riders then become number 2 at 7.2 Speed with Desert Wind. So factoring that in or heck not even mentioning the funny Lush buff and with Theia alone the Contarius end up an extremely well rounded unit. Oh also of note is that again thanks to Theia, Contarius also has the best slowing effect (at least from memory) so that's fun and makes them even better at chasing down units hehe

Yes, that would take 3x the time. But I guess if you choose the topics you want to cover carefully and focus on quallity, I think you can make some supplementary income from KZbin by getting the crown of the best AoM KZbinr. Maybe not what you aspire to be, it would require some sacrfices. Let me just put it this way, I was interested in the topic, but I didn't sit through the whole video and cliked here and there (so I had to do the job of finding the most important talking points).

Good at being meat sacks if you look at overall resources AND have ring giver, but very bad at being cavalry. Even then, elephants "cost more" but most of the cost is in food, while costing 10 less gold. In late game, where you have fully transitioned to a farm economy, you have more than enough food whereas gold is a problem that needs to be fought over. Compared to hippeus they're only 10F more at equal gold cost. Jarls are a bad idea that sound good on the surface of it, even the 100% extra damage against MU doesn't mean much because 1) they are bodyblockable AND fat 2) they are not heroes so they take full damage from MU and get abilities casted on them. Early heroic -with and only with ring giver- they do give you some extra pep, especially because to drop some huskarls you need to lay down a few forts whom dirrectly compete with huskarl production in terms of resources, and you'd rather build a few battering rams as well. Factor in the fact that now even chariot archers have a bonus against huskarls (becaue infantry lmao)- so every single archer counters huskarls- and yeah jarls make sense in that tiny windows because they are good overall (whereas RC rely on bonus damage and have low DPS). Keep in mind that their build time is insanely long (24s), but that is common to all great hall units so you should have a few plopped down already from classical; great halls are more expensive than stables, but also much more versatile (you NEED them for godi, and I wouldn't want my hersir prod to rely on temples, as temples cost 100G and are needed for MU prod.) tl;dr they give you an additional edge in early-mid heroic (when norse are at their strongest if they maintained their classical edge through the opponent's heroic power spike -norse do not have a power spike upon reaching heroic; flaming weapons only makes what you already have a bit stronger and is hard-countered by chaos/curse), but not in late/very late game and are unfit to replace RC at doing RC stuff.

I might disagree, only on the fact thst some of the cavalry need fortresses to be produced, so even amongst the cav that are available in 3rd age, those cav are even less available because you can't make them as soon as you age up, you need to age up, construct a fortress, and then you can produce 1 at a time. By the time I get to age 3 I often have 2-3 military buildings producing units. If I'm going all in on cav my main force will be a different unit until I can get 2 fortresses, or until I can amass enough from one fortress.

Best looking cavalry is definitely war elephant if we get the champion ones. Also I believe war elephants might not be great alone but they are deadly in late game in a composition with chariots. It is difficult to think about them as a cavalry unit (as you already stated). It's more of a siege - a unit that prolonges fights. In a way they are kind of like colossus? I think so.

I feel like this chart needs to have separate categories for god tech buffed versions of these units, Thoth elephants should be in their own category separate from regular elephants due to -1 pop, -10% discount and a 2 for 1 deal, same for Osiris camels and Poseidon cavalry.

I consider elephants to be HP sponges to guard my Chariot Archers and priests. Or siege weapons that can defend themselves. Not really the same use case as other cavalry.

I think Prodromos with Poseiden MOSTLY - and Ares for the 1 divine damage (I know, no techs) seems interesting. The later Age IV healing off of damage dealt could be interesting with you not having to go for the Hermes speed boost due to poseiden 0.4 boost. The divine damage has felt good with 1.0 attacking Hoplite, Prodromos & then of course you get militia which benefit from it too. But question, do 0.4 additions onto the 6.0 base speed of cav units for Poseiden get % increases too... AoE III has even more funky alternate cases for things like this than AoE II, but don't know yet with Retold.

Hello I am trying to create a guide myself but I am getting frustrated on how to counter Hade's Archers as Loki when they mass produce them. Raiding Cavalry seems too expensive to contest them especially if he has Hoplites in frond to support them. But even if they are not supported the just wipe out everything before my units gap close. Any thoughts?

ok watched a little further and you explained your values, but I think you should have started with that before beginning your analysis of the units. Also, I think taking Tech and God bonuses into account is important in analyzing their performances, even if it's just putting up the best possible example for each faction (Like Poseidon + Hermes + Dionysus + Hephaestus for the Greeks)

How are you calculating cost? I don't think resource costs for units from different civs should be calculated with equal value to each other because each civ has different gather rates (and therefore the balance regarding the cost of one unit for one civ is very likely to be balanced against the gather rates for that civ). Atlanteans are the most extreme example, with units having to be much cheaper than normal thanks to their vills costing 2x and training almost 2x as long but only gathering 1.5x the Greek rate. Therefore their units are likely much cheaper than they would be if they were in the Greek roster.
