Let's Play: Predynastic Egypt - Part 3 of 5

[@pixelgemini230]

Scout: "Sir, we met another Falcon tribe in the North." Quill: "That's great!" Scout: "Unfortunately, they are worshiping their falcons wrong." Quill: "KILL THEM!!"

[@talknight2]

I liked this game. Took about 4 hours to go through the whole campaign. :) Only one minor gripe relating to this particular episode - the name Palestine is extremely anachronistic for the period depicted in this game. It was called Canaan until about 2000 years after the campaign end date...

[@tay09876]

Every time Quill hits next turn with an idle worker, I die a little on the inside. lol

[@Ericshadowblade]

do i really not have enough hammers? *proceeds to place building project*

[@syriuszb8611]

And proceed to work 4 hammer tile when there is 3 slots worth 5 hammers in city... And work 3 food tiles when he is overpopulated and have plenty of food.

[@shiniselune399]

Just Quill things...

[@DKforever24]

Quill = Min/Max Fail

[@raskalthefirst]

lets give 60 hammers per turn to palestine while overpopulated and needing to build housing...

[@CarnivoreChris89]

I laughed way to hard!

[@sokiX1]

It would be cool to see a series after this on a harder/hardest diffculty maybe for a stream or something

[@METALFREAK03]

+1 would like to see this on stream, perhaps today? however, it is canada day and this game isn't really canadian lol

[@gametips8339]

i spent 3 hours trying to get gold medal on the first trial on hardest dificulty. I run out of ideas and at no point was i even close :(.

[@snow9209]

keep this series rolling quill, good on you.

[@shauncagney2811]

with the subdue/unite actions, the cost/military strength of tribes can be quickly determined by checking the stripes next to them. one stripe is weakest, two stripes is a bit stronger, three stripes a bit stronger still, then finally the lightning bolt. You have two tribes in the river delta that are both 2 stripes. They should be the easiest ones to subdue if you want to.

[@TonboIV]

I think there may be some buildings you skipped over further back on the tree.

[@joopie99aa]

Really loving this series! It was super frustrating not to see you trade more though. Most of those trades were really good, netting you 5 or more resources per turn.

[@JoaoVictor-fq6hz]

we don't have enough production, so let's spend more production

[@pietrosignori4095]

We are way above pop limit *4% above pop limit*

[@TheRevWillNotBeTelevised]

That wind noise is driving me crazy!

[@notadolphin9995]

I thought it was relaxing.

[@TomJakobW]

It happens when you’re zoomed out max on the over world map.

[@Adyen11234]

Hey Quill. Trading actually gets pretty lucrative once you get some trading bonuses (like 13+food for 3 hammers). I hope you check them out later and not just unite and take over everyone without checking.

[@PuzzlingGoal]

But he does eventually have to unite/subdue everyone together at some point, don't he?

[@matheusleal9586]

Not really. He only needs the tribes along the Nile (which he already has). The Palestinians and the desert tribes can be left along, except if you want some achievements.

[@dougformerlysekkohegane9303]

Quill describes the Seth tribe as though they were an STD "They can spread, and become really nasty" -Quill18

[@lonerangerv1224]

you can cancel construction. you need to select the building in the menu and it gives you the option to cancel its construction

[@Sirmenonottwo]

I bought this because of your other 2 videos. This game would be perfect for a school library right up there with the Oregon trail. Ive played a few games now, the last one I lost by 1 single turn, oh it hurt.

[@MrJMB122]

brother for the love of God click on the tech notification because it gives you information about that technological development much more than you seen the actual tech tree.

[@liberphilosophus7481]

You're going *down* the Nile, not up.

[@Unni_Havas]

A good tip is to NOT trade with your goal as soon as you reach them. Because until you do you get a free 50% reduced scouting speed. And the reward isn't all that. So just delay trading with them, until you have explored all/most of the map.

[@jeroenvanwees3250]

32:26 You can cancel construction, but it's a little bit annoying: you've got to select the building you are currently constructing, in the build menu. There you can cancel. WARNING though: you lose all turns already put into the construction, including those from the Horus boost.

[@S4RSZ]

By the looks of it, the bad events are because of the struggle Seth Horus, so getting rid of that asap is good. Not sure if that is how it works.

[@Kodasa_Sinclair]

3 episodes in and I've noticed, perhaps because of youtube and because I'm not playing but... it's really damn hard to tell if you have a new notification. I dunno if it's just my eyes or what, but I can barely make out the notifactions because they sit on that ornate and distracting as hell map border. Maybe it's all the Stellaris I've been playing recently, I'm just used to seeing notifcations over the empty void. I also love that you conquered the "Dum Palm" tribe. I love to think that their entire tribe was founded around this one particular palm tree that just looked really Dum(b) compared to every other palm tree. "Lo and behold our glorious gift from the gods, this Dum Palm!"

[@coolmanfight1827]

quill you make me buy this game, i got 12/33 for my first time.

[@METALFREAK03]

same, I also bought their marble age game (same as this but with greek poleis states) in a bundle. Only 12 quid.

[@Codan3]

really? I got 22/33 my first playthrough, I find it to be absurdly easy on the easiest difficulties

[@coolmanfight1827]

well that just means i bad at this game then. but everyway it´s very fun

[@noahfeazell3336]

my first time was -3/33.. im not good at strategy games lol

[@zapermunz]

Watching this makes me want to play Pharaoh.

[@peterteter4403]

i love your videos quill, please keep up with the good work and never let it down.

[@utajaz2000]

Dude I love these videos, maybe you can try a harder difficulty, I'd certainly watch that.

[@jeremyhooijer7229]

"Prosperity of crafts BEER, Yes let's take beer" ~Quil 2k17

[@Rahmanulordamau6000]

The battles between Nekken and Naquada or the Seth people is what happened in history.

[@nicholashatzis]

Shame that it's the type of game you will replay immediately once or twice then have no reason to return to again :/

[@MrJMB122]

Nicholas Hatzis the first time I beat this game of took me about 12 I replayed it several times since just to get the personal score I'm a huge history nerd

[@Alex-fn2hl]

For 10 dollars, that's fine.

[@arosisgod365]

That may be true, but it's only 10 bucks and it seems decent enough.

[@METALFREAK03]

Just bought this with their other game Marble Age. Both very addictive, Very much worth 12 pounds.

[@RiverHorse01]

oh my god just take the effin' upper and lower egypt thing!

[@KILLERMATYCZ]

You could trade with Snake and Croc at same time, it would be around 5 food and 8 hammers for that. Just two workers :D

[@Yougottacryforthis]

El Faiyoum aka Arabic names, in Egypt, in 3634 BC. L M A O.

[@Dan-kr9bm]

26:52 Was thinking the exact same thing.

[@Karagianis]

Fish tribe living in the mountains... LOL!

[@Simmlex]

8:54 lol that event XD I laughed so hard XD

[@todorov62]

32:04 *huh* so that's why there are so few workers in my country

[@daanrutgers4426]

The Egyption people discofferd beer and paid thier workers in beer @quill18 just a fun little fact

[@METALFREAK03]

no, that was Sumerian I am pretty sure. They might have made wheat beer first though.

[@dinoman1843]

hey great video!!! =D

[@RyanPHoferJr]

This vid is kinda ancient but anyone notice the 666 soldiers defeat that tribe at around 12:30

[@darkiceNo22]

BEER?! Lets get beer! *-*

[@JRufu]

Happy Canada Day Quill

[@Lawrencelot89]

I think the next video is gonna be A-okay

[@IMMORTALone84]

8:45 Game's got jokes I see.. lmao

[@021liman]

this looks like you cant lose

[@Exertios13]

It's not about losing. It's about how great of a win you can score.

[@Adyen11234]

That's not true. The big thing is that you need a lot of resources to win - even though Quill's been continuing through the game smoothly doesn't mean he won't get stuck on the actual victory conditions.

[@DankusMemicus]

He's playing on the easiest difficulty level, that's why it seems that way.

[@daredaemon8878]

And he's also playing on the easiest difficulty.

[@coolmanfight1827]

so many farms

[@lorddenti]

darude - sandstorm is playing

[@cantarmal1987]

continue with domina!!! its nore intersting

[@snow9209]

First?

[@FrejthKing]

congrats or something

[@METALFREAK03]

You know nothing Snow. ;P

[@snow9209]

Frank Spencer cheers?

[@TheRuski1]

Snow uh
