Lategame Byzantine Olive Oil Is Absolutely Absurd

[@set_5341]

I feel like Byzantium not being purple is a crime.

Limitanei (limi-tah-neigh) were troops on the borders, the "limits". It was more of a army command term since you could have limitanei cavalry or missile troops or whatever. They are also went out of use for most of this game's time period. They could have called those spearmen "skoutatoi" or "shieldcarrier" which would have made more sense.

Aussie Drongo's comment section slowly but surely gaslighting itself into believing that Drongo mispronouncing words is just the Australian dialect

[@blaiddwolf4315]

These videos with new civs have been really awesome. Great seeing the new types of strategies these civs can offer.

Across all Aoe4 channels right now, I have never seen the words absurd and insane used so much

True, It's insanely absurd!

That destroyed value was so out of balance, 110k for Vald and 64 for Beasty. The olive oil units don't count towards it, it seems. Bu the efficiency of the Byzantines is crazy good.

[@fearmaker1000]

this is quality content

Valdemar's infrastructure was insane. He's out there playing Cities Skylines 😂

[@christophermccarthy9318]

These new civs look a lot more op than the standard.

I'll be shocked if the cistern Aqueduct system stays the way it is. I played it last night and had a whole network and it goes crazy for production

I feel like 2 days ago he said he was a Japanese main. Like when he said he's a ottoman main when they first came out and within a couple days was an English main. Homie hopper lol

[@eristaviserbia]

A Byzantine late game focused on mercenaries is very strong because it allows a Byzantine player to leverage the mercenary system to hire what are otherwise gold-intensive units to overwhelm an opponent without having to rely on gold income. The versatility of the mercenary contracts and the artillery available from the Foreign Engineering Company will make for a potent force with which to attain victory without paying a single penny.

[@The_Rainwatcher]

That if you can reach the late game

Drongo: Ayyubids, ayyu-bids, ayyub,-ids Meanwhile closed caption: Aids, Aids, Aids 😂

Valdemar…he who must not be named. He is a PROBLEM

[@throwmeaname]

This was a super stressful game lol. Great work!

[@CrazyMiso]

I was just listening to this as a podcast and i hear drongo say "Great wHinary". I was like what? There is no way Valdemar or Beasty is whining in a chat or something :D

[@Schnitzel2368]

Good cast. But till now, i want every map "asteroid sounds"! :))) ... And valdemar becomes from month to month better. I bet, the day on that he will become place one, will come.

[@ShogunLazo]

this looks stronger than it kinda is ... if beasty when for a more infantry heavy army the spears would not have been able to hold, but because its the ayyubids and alot of camels and cavalry, he kinda got away with it xD

[@johnnypenso9574]

I've watched 3 or 4 casted games with the new civs and I'm confused about Beasty's strategy. He seems to be shooting for 150-160 vills in most games and seems to just leave the siege equipment unprotected quite often.

[@JamesCh.]

Very one dimensional player who capitalizes on his micro harass and I bet you we'll see him exposed as the game mechanics get more complicated and civs get way more ways to play with no certain meta. As was the case with aoe2, he was never even decent at that game. I always thought he's overrated in a new game that doesn't have much variety to its strategic part (yet).

[@emissarygw2264]

@@JamesCh. lol, see him exposed 🤣haters gonna hate I guess

[@jadwaymekenye]

Really enjoying these new civs

[@JVTVable]

yellow base is so nice 🔥🔥🔥

[@Trubripes]

good game didn't get called, Beasty got eliminated.

[@Manwu5]

The combinations of a late game Byzantine army combining Varangians , Cataphracts and elephants is at least scary. There is nothing in the game that can win it.

[@ChrisNihilus]

A good rule of thumb is to always pronounce these ancient word simply as written, with a latin accent structure (basically putting the accent where it would make the word flatter). LIMI like in limit, TA like in tarots, NEI like in Neighbour. The accent is on the A.

[@mstrolling2151]

More French variant casts please 🙏🏼

[@ReinhardvonHolst]

What a game!

[@GeorgeMasterclass]

Im Greek, when you see "ei" you just pronounce it as "e" like "e"qual.

[@firingallcylinders2949]

Thanks I didn't know that

[@Abraktil]

i have a strange feeling i have already seen this game on another channel

Hey Aussie … I studied Latin for 5 years. I would pronounce the spear unit, “limit-ahn-eye”

The Byz have made late game gold irrelevant. Last 15 minutes of the game Beast had 2500+ gold more per minute and still lost. Incredible.

[@yuriisieniahin1370]

Wtf that mangonel implacements are? Why all old civs have that useless springald, while new civs got mangonels in keeps (even in towers)?

[@Krash_TM]

100% it's (limit) (tan) (aye) limitanae

[@sc40223]

you pronounced ayyubids right, you emphasize the y, Ay.yubis

[@svenlambrecht8288]

I am struggling with the fact you call each strat / civ, either insane, broken or something else in that line... they can"t all be broken and be the best?

[@AussieDrongo]

its just marketing, i'm highlighting a strategy, but most people wouldn't click on it if i just wrote "a basic strategy for byzantines that is fun"
