You're the best AOE3:DE content creator, thank you man! Every single video is just a big pleasure to watch. I hope you will get more followers soon, you really deserve it! Wish you best of luck, buddy! Keep it up!

BEST AOE 3 CONTENT 2020! Love it!

[@phoenixx51]

Really impressive defence at the end there, well played to both of you. Will you be doing any Dutch build orders in the near future?

[@Hannes2k]

you’ve got me hooked om aoe3 youtube content again, thanks!

[@adamhadamcik385]

Happy to see some Spanish action. I like that even though you lost you praised the enemy for his play that's honorable. Really like this channel and I'm looking forward to more videos.

[@scroogietw6878]

this kind of analysis was very entertaining to watch

Im glad that You upload video where You lost, not pretending to be a superman, but this was a good game. Diarouga good player. Good vid. Diarougas defence OP. Ill need to learn that timing.

People were doing the Spanish FF in 2008 haha, now in 2020 we have some random Australian guy doing it against one of the best players in the world

Glad to see the Unction card in Drongo's Decks on discord. I still wonder what unit works best with the missionaries. I hear they pair well with muskets.

Much better dude, clear difference with higher bitrate, gj!

[@AussieDrongo]

Glad to hear it man, I actually noticed this myself in another video and put it up before I read your comment. I spent around 2 hours comparing what I was seeing, to what OBS was recording, to what FIlmora was spitting out as an output, and came to the conclusion I needed to up the bitrate significantly. Thank you once again for pointing it out as it only confirmed my suspicions!

Will there be a build order or strategy for the Lakota in the near future? They are so much fun too play but not counting rifle riders they seem soo weak often in many regards. I must be doing something wrong.

Good video gamer. Is it viable to go for missionary's with unction?

[@hanstermen9141]

I normaly use that only in late Game where that diference in attack really matters to be able to break through enemy forces

[@vladimirlagos2688]

I am intrigued, you had strongly advocated for the Logistician as the most powerful age-up for Spain because of the tempo of pressure it allowed. Does this apply only to Age 2 rushes and is not as good for FF? What would be the disadvantages, if any, of using the Logistician in an FF strategy? Thanks for the post, it was both informative and very entertaining. By the way, do you think Spain with the new card changes and Logistician is finally on par with other civs or is it still a one trick pony?

[@AussieDrongo]

Funny you say that. I've got a logistician FF strategy I've been working on which enables you to age up very fast (20 secs faster than normal) - but you forgo the forward outpost, which is really whats so important in spanish FF. From now on vs Sweden I'll look to utilise this as to avoid losing my forward outpost.

[@bastienmeunier3444]

@@AussieDrongo Can you tell us more about this logistician FF strategy or you will in further video ?

[@GarfieldRex]

Saw a tournament game in which the German player scouted the map and destroyed the torps once, and again, and again. So after surviving the swedish push, should go for the torps instead of the TC. Still very well played 👌

could you show us a way to defeat mass pikeman and cannon? I have a friend that is a pain the only strategy he know how to use and i just cant get throw :(

[@MrSiLenTb88]

I have a question, if you have more cards in the game, does it take longer for the timer to go down? Or it's same as having 25 cards or 15 cards

[@AussieDrongo]

It's the same :)

[@caracatoacacepe]

Well that's great and all, but how do you win? Just do the same, but playing as Sweden?

[@AussieDrongo]

I could have won if I had microed my units correctly, I need to bring my rodeleros up to meet the top group of caroleans, and kept my lancer and hussar on the bottom group of caroleans, enabling both 2 falcs to remain alive and thereby decisively winning the fight, but I neglected them. So it was more a mismanagement of units rather than a failure of rock/paper/scissors.

[@caracatoacacepe]

@@AussieDrongo thank you for replying. I feel that anytime I try to FF the results are similar.

Hi Drongo, i've been struggling in 1v1's as Russia on the long run, specially vs France. I think economy is the key to make Russia good again, any idieas on how to setup a good Russia eco/military start ?

[@AussieDrongo]

It can be really hard, especially vs civilisations with strong cavalry. This matchup in particular is difficult because France really counter a lot that Russia have got. Instead of Strelet, focus on Musket production and map control through the logistician.

[@4lM0Th]

Ty, any thoughts about wood trickle? Tradeposts?

[@davidderr8705]

@@AussieDrongo I would love to see some Russian videos from you. You have been putting out so much content so I know it has to be on the list somewhere. Would really appreciate seeing a video for late game Russia, or Russia when the rush fails/isn't practical. Thank you for everything!

[@scroogietw6878]

thats some swe swe herding right there

[@insaneweasel1]

What do you think you could have done different to win?

[@AussieDrongo]

A couple of things, my macro was poor, I should have had 13 vills on coin 8 vills on food to maintain a better production of skirms and therefore increase my mass, also in the last fight I needed to be guarding my 2 falc more closely instead of going out to meet the enemy units, especially sending both rods / lancer / huss to the north, should have kept the cav down south to defend against Carls.

[@Duthjoods]

[@sickjuicysjamshack3580]

[@iwersonsch5131]

Why is the Philosopher Prince so weak?

[@AussieDrongo]

Because you can gather the 1200 food before you need to age up, and you don't need that extra 500 food. The outpost that the governor gives you enables you to have a forward base of operations and hit with a faster timing.

[@eget4144]

Your army lost so hard, I am not sure if keeping cav at south would make you win.

[@666MetaL4eveR666]

That is to say, the same FF for 15 years, it has no mystery, Diarouga only has to do caroleans and GG, Sweden is really OP and easy to play, Spain as always losing because you only have a single strategy, FF and if you fail in the first push you've lost. hahaha Diarouga saying in the forum that Spain is tier 1 or 2 makes me laugh . He didn't even need his 2 falconets to kill all ur army XD

Spain is tier 1 or 2 for 1v1 IMO, they are in a very good position. Only Sweden would be above them. Sweden don't seem to have any bad MUs (except spain, which can be handled somewhat with early aggression). I did mis-micro my mass and lost my falcs, where as Diarouga was able to time the fight perfectly, even though he lost his 2 falcs, the villager pop + MM + charge from carls was very well executed.
