In case you forgot /sarcasm, all good. If not, I'd just like to remind that printing press was invented in Europe in 1440, carracks first appeared in Europe in 1300s and there's no historical source about man-carrying hot air balloons until 1783 in France Pizarro, the guy responsible for the demise of the Incas, arrived in Peru in 1531. Naturally anything before that can't possibly be stolen from Incas, and it seems unlikely that anybody would remember an obscure idea somebody had 350 years ago on another continent under conditions that wouldn't really support the preservation of information.

Few things I could point out that weren't mentioned in the video. 1. Cartography is very good for free in nomad games 2. I've noticed a lot that when going feudal agression, you don't build a market, only an archery range/stable and a blacksmith when enough wood. In these cases, specially when coordenating with others, it's a pretty good tech to have. 3. It's also very good for fast castle knight rushes because, even if you're going fast castle, you're doing a stables instead of a market. Doing a knight rush in a pocket position with cartography allows you to quickly know where to send them if an ally needs help.

You should have mentioned that the team bonus is useful for early scouting since it is like having extra scout in the dark age which means you can quickly find oppenents since if any one else on your team finds them then you find them too. You can also co-ordinate and each player can scout different parts of the map to avoid overlap. You can also completely neglect scouting and have your scout lure deer while your allies do the scouting for you. But of course if everyone does that it could lead to a problem. P.S Loved the 1:04 joke.

Portuguese ships have more hp because the only ships that ever returned, from the "spanish" armada that filippe send out to england, where in fact portuguese, like the flaggship São Martinho. And since then everybody knew, portuguese build the best ships. And where the first to shoot bronze canons that where loaded from the back. Maybe that's where they got the idea for the unique canory unit.

@SpiritOfTheLaw
@SpiritOfTheLaw 7 жыл бұрын
The big difference to me is the Japanese have a really good early game bonus. I figure Portuguese save maybe 1 gold miner worth of gold by 20 minutes if they go knights, and their scout rush has no help at all from any bonuses. Japanese save easily 200 wood in dark age, which means better scout rush and fast castle into knights than Portuguese. Maybe if you keep pumping out knights for 5 minutes the Portuguese bonus catches up, and in the long run they save more gold, but Japanese in the expansions are a solid cavalry civ until imperial age.
@tigerd7528
@tigerd7528 7 жыл бұрын
That is a great point. The last armor upgrade is huge. If your cavaliers only get 4 pierce armor, they die extremely quickly to arrows. But with 6 pierce armor, they take 1 damage from skirms rather than 3, and are much better at raiding.
@tigerd7528
@tigerd7528 7 жыл бұрын
But the Japanese lack the crucial plus 4 upgrade. The plus 4 cavalier early imperial age power spike can be outright game deciding, at all skill levels. Having 6 pierce armor means your knights are immune to castle age 7 attack xbows, as well as TC fire. having only 4 pierce armor means you take three times the damage from enemy arrows. Personally I would've given the Portuguese a higher score just for the plus 4 armor, but their knights also cost less gold. I think it's hard to justify not giving Portuguese a higher score in cavalry than the Japanese. Sure, Japanese have a better scout rush, but knights in my opinion are a much more impactful unit than scouts.
@genericpersonx333
@genericpersonx333 7 жыл бұрын
I suspect it is mostly because the Japanese have fully-upgradeable horse archers. Also, unlike with the Portuguese who have superior bombard cannons to counter siege in the Imperial Age, the Japanese really have to rely on cavaliers to keep those pesky onagers under control because they don't have siege onagers or bombard cannons themselves. In other words, the inferior Japanese cavalry are more useful to the Japanese than the inferior Portuguese cavalry is to the Portuguese in the late game.

I think you underplayed how useful free carto is. obviously it is completely useless in 1v1s, but in team games, especially 2v2s or in other game modes where feudal aggression is prevalent and resources have to be prioritized in favor of military, the 175 wood for a market is a waste unless your eco is unbalanced and you have to build one to sell resources anyways. for 5 more wood you could get 3 farms and advance to castle faster, or for the same price you could build another archery range etc. It is also useful for coordinating attacks since x'ing the map like a madman only works so well. it encourages better teamwork such as one person bringing over archers to help kill spears so his ally can use his scouts to raid the enemy. you can also use your scouts more efficiently since you wont both scout the same areas twice unnecessarily. I would even argue this is one of the strongest team bonuses in team games.

Or just go pure Caravel + Fire Ship and never build a single Galeon (you still need its upgrade for Fire though). 10:38 - Indian Hand Cannoneers beat Portuguese, that +1 range is really a difference. 10:50 - I remember I sent you, that Cannon Galeon is not affected and you confirmed it that time, glad they fixed it :-).

@Chenla
@Chenla 7 жыл бұрын
Yeah, but not this time. HC are so slow that even their bad accuracy will hit some of them, clumped especially. So by the time Portuguese will reach the range to fire, their dmg is already reduced. Turks HC are the only one, who beat the Indian ones. (At least Indians have something, for compensate their useless 'unique' castle unit).
@misteral9045
@misteral9045 7 жыл бұрын
I think it depends on the use of micro and the size of the battle. In small groups with micro (~10-20 units) Portuguese will always win since the opponents micro is nullified (HC vs HC). Very similar to getting ballistics for crossbows in castle age. In large battles with multiple kinds of units where micro is not practical, I think we can consider arquebus to indirectly make Portuguese HCs more effective, since they will hit more of their shots. However, here is where there is no objective argument as to what is better. Turks hp? Indian range? Spanish fire rate? Personally, I would go with Indians range, since it makes the HC more flexible, but there are strong arguments for each side.

Feitoria - was already not that great and they made it awful! Arquebus - why reduce the speed of cannons? What's the argument here? By the same logic remove the insane speed from spanish cannon galleons!! That coupled with terrible team bonus, caravels being very situational, and you've got probably the most underwhelming civ in the game. They went from OP to UP. These devs didn't manage to find a balance and ended up fucking it up. It really does piss me off.

I think you missed the Point of a carvel. You need you use it when you're behind in production of gallies in the late game. They are most effective against a large group. the same argument can be made for the combo fireship/Gallyon

Quite Interesting Idea here, but keep in mind that if you are already behind the investment in the carvel upgrade as well as the high cost make it unlikely that you can pull this off easily. But on the other hand I see your point, a small carvel navy has a lot more destructive power against an overwhelming fleet of galleys...

Once they complete bugfixes (check the comments on steam), I do wish for each civilization to get a unique economic building (except Portuguese they have feitoria as their unique economic building) and also a unique military building. The unique ecomomic building there are many ideas including a civilization to get a camp that drops off all 4 resources and unique military building such as the fire tower. The villager buildings and military buildings button has 1 spot available for economic buildings and portuguese get the feitoria there after the wonder, and also the military buildings have an empty spot after the siege workshop. Then an idea to make fishing ship become "villager of the sea" the way it was in the very early stages of the game in age of kings 1998. The fishing ship needs to be able to build fish trap, dock, sea wall, sea tower, and be able to repair anything it can reach. Currently fish traps are not repairable in any way, but are healable by monks I tried that and it worked.

hbarudi since we're at it, why not give ships wheels so they can be used on land and allow you to garrison archers on ships for additional attack? Yeah, let's make civilizations not unique anymore and make them all the same so when you get bored of playing one, you'll get bored of all of them.

Hey Spirit!, do you think one feitoria on a 300 pop, 2 on 400, and 4 on 500 would be a good investment on a standard map with trade and the rest being villagers for a steady income of stone to potentially beef up defenses and ramp up organ gun production?

8:19 you forgot/overlooked something about caravels: They are more versatile than Galeons -- that is: they are not as vulnerable to fire-ships; at least in my experience. They tried to lower that advantage with the [second to] last patch, if I remember correctly, but it's still a thing, as far as I can tell Note: I am not talking about attack-bonuses. They are just better at keeping their distance, as they don't have to concentrate fire on one galley, and then the next, and let too many come through, but instead can predamage even the ones not targeted yet, and thus do better. It's similar with demolition ships (compare your video about their effectiveness), but not as clearly; and those aren't a natural counter to Galley-line units anyway, so this is rather moot
@PyrrhoVonHyperborea
@PyrrhoVonHyperborea 7 жыл бұрын
gotta complain about your rating; you basically doubled the impact of their gold-discount by both listing it as an economy-bonus and a bonus to every single columns of units... chose one! I'd leave it with the single departments of their units, rather than attach it to the economy, as a discount really does nothing for your economy, esp. as long as you are not building units.
@PyrrhoVonHyperborea
@PyrrhoVonHyperborea 7 жыл бұрын
+ your advice to think twice about using caravels [at the end of the video] is incomplete, again; as, if a player concentrates on them, he can save himself some expenses, and it's esp. interesting if joining the naval warfare late, as you don't have to go from ground up to have decent units (same like other ship special units) -- that only works, however, when you have a [literal] save haven to get to a critical mass with these ships. (think: big islands, for instance (or archipel, etc.), when concentrating on land warfare earlier, to eradicate the more direct threat) But one might argue, that fire-ships can be forgone on, also, with the caravels greater versatility -- which again saves some resources. 15:50 "unless you are dedicated to be making a lot of them" -- if you are not, you are doing it wrong (see "critical mass") anyway, so that point is moot Their effectiveness, no matter what, depends on their numbers, anyway. If you _can't get there,_ they are a failed investment, if you can, most other lines become obsolete.

Wonder how good Portuguese will be on water and with archers now. Gold discount and 250 free wood is pretty good for those units. Thats 10 archers worth of wood now and just over 3 fire galleys worth. Which while your berries normally last into feudal, it means you can probably have 1 vill more on it instead of wood. And just extra wood when it is very crucial

I'd consider the Feitoria a really useful building to use in games with big population limits. Ones in the 400-500 space where it becomes a bit redundant, and I find in my games I'm never fully using my population space. Having 4-5 Feitorias in the background then is really nice, especially considering how hellish managing an economy in games as massive as what I described can be. Also, am I the only one who feels like the Portuguese got nerfed a bit too hard? Their late game is very strong, but I'd argue you could pull off the same sort of thing with the Italians, with their cheaper gunpowder units and Genoese Xbows protecting them from cavalry.
@rovsea-3761
@rovsea-3761 7 жыл бұрын
I'd argue that portuguese late game is stronger. Italians are still susceptible to siege and halbs, because they lack siege engineers (or ballistics) on their bombard cannons. That means that completely ignoring skirms, onagers would be somewhat effective without constant bombard cannon micro. Italians have a solid late game (I'd call them a counter civ to portuguese because Condotierro), but against most civs I'd put Portuguese ahead.
@genericpersonx333

Yeah, i find there is really no solid answer to the Portuguese when they have handcannons, bombards, and organ guns working together. The handcannons counter infantry and cavalry. The organ guns counter archers and cavalry. The bombards counter siege. If the Porty player can get the gold to pay for a critical mass of each of these units, they will eat up a lot of enemies.

i think the Feit is best for players who don't want to micromanage their economy. Also you only mention stone, but on island maps ot desert types, it's also useful for wood too. If you're being denied the abiltiy to go outside your base to gather resources, it seems like a solid investment

Ardith Prime It's also great for private games with you friends. If you can convince your friends to put on a treaty on any map with a 500 pop cap you can boom very quickly in imperial without the need of multiple town centres. After that you can mass walls and organ guns and you become pretty god like to anyone who tries to attack, no matter how good their army composition. Doesn't really work online as people put a lower pop cap and will harass you early

maybe gold mining is faster, but the time to deliver the resource and return to the mine is not afaik. Also mining must be managed as resources are depleted. So a 20% boost to mining is not actually 20% faster resource gathering rate in this regard I would prefer the cut. However the extra mined gold is very important in early game, because it can be used to develop technologies faster.
