I have a question. I've learned this and your 2TC build order for French, which has worked great! Can I use both builds against every civ, or does this suit some matchups while the 2TC suit other matchups? Thanks for all the great content btw, really helpful!

For the people who are also struggling with hitting the timings. The solution is probably to sort the villagers to a max of 3 on 1 sheep early on. This gives such a massive boost to the gathering. Even though I played plenty of AOE2 and that was key there I totally forgot it. It makes a 30 seconds difference in early aggresion which is a huge advantage.

Can the 8th villiager build the house on their way to the gold mine? That way you can choose to leave a farm right without adding walk time? It can't be important to get the house ealier? or is it important to not stall a gold vil vs a food one? I might try it both ways a couple times and see if one is faster to age up. vil 8 or even 9 building the house wouldn't leave you housing locked ...

woah ok, why build a lumber mill before touching any of your straggler trees? I'd shift click through the three straggler trees, that is 450 wood this will get you a blacksmith eariler which for French means a free damage upgrade as the knights start to harrass. Or in the case of this build the archery range faster. Is the walk time on the straggler trees too much?

Hello there first of all, i like your guides about specific playstyles, while i am not playing french like, at all, it is interesting to see what i should expect or at least keep in mind when going up against them, so your guides are super helpful in that regard as well Something unrelated to the video.. i have around 60 hours playtime which was mostly against bots (sometimes with friends) and want to get into online, is it ok for new players to start or will i get blasted by smurfs/high rank players because there might be too few low rank players (like me)?
@Valdemar19027 ай бұрын
If you have just 60h and none spent in competitive online play, you are very likely to experience losses. That being said, the ranking system pits you against average players and below if you lose placements. I recommend putting the game theory presented on this channel into practice. If you are willing to pay as well, then a coaching session also see new players skip parts of that initial tough learning period
@indigo78987 ай бұрын
@@Valdemar1902 So long as i get matched with people in similar ranks i am fine with it Was a bit worried it might be like league of legends where no matter what rank you would have smurfs sneaking their way in, which makes it quite frustrating for beginners I will keep the coaching in mind, for now i am going to try my luck on a few games and see how well (or not) i'm doing with my current level, could be interesting to have a comparison later on Thanks for replying and have a good day :P

Need help against mongols tower rush as France. When i open with archers, they follow with x2 keshisk and continue to increase the army non stop into wood line while trading slowly. So hard to catch up with their army (x2 with stone) while protect my vills from towers.
@LG-Moonlight7 ай бұрын
Mongols is a tough matchup, but what comes to mind is to actually counterpush with your knights instead of desperately trying to deal with the towers. They will tower up your gold, so personally I'd try to preemptively protect it with a tower of my own, or otherwise sneak out some villagers to take a distant gold vein. Mongols primarily play agressive, but have terrible defenses in their own base due to lack of walls.
@hatgiongecoseed62857 ай бұрын
@@LG-Moonlight they stills can find a place to tower your gold even when you already make a tower so you stills can't mining gold. Not a great option.

VALD, could you teach me how to beat palace guard + Nest of bee (China) with french combinaion in team game?
@LG-Moonlight7 ай бұрын
Your knights should do just fine. They counter Nest of Bees pretty well, and deal good damage to palace guards (and also outrun them). If both of you are in castle, you can get some arbalétriers to deal with their palace guards even more effectively, but you gotta keep these away from the Nest of Bees while your knights walk around and snipe those.

Hey Valdemar, please don't go down the Drongo-route. Your video title is not technically wrong, but it insinuates actual aggression at <a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="220">3:40</a> although it is the common <a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="280">4:40</a>-<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="300">5:00</a> first knight. Your content is stellar and I hope you can find success without playing the exaggarative KZbin-Game.

The point of the build is the very quick 3:40 feudal age-up with a knight in queue (at no tc idle time) so there is no clickbait (there never is in my videos). Hopefully that clarifies it

4:00 age up or later is normal for French. The title is well put. 3:40 age up which does happen here is rediculous and very impressive to start a first knight.

@@Valdemar1902100% agree, most French BOs out there age up a bit slower and get wheelbarrow. When I saw your title I thought how is he going to age up at 3:40 and start building a knight immediately but you show it can be done. I didn’t think how are you going to get a knight in a person’s base at that time because it’s obviously impossible!
