It's actually pretty cool as a mobile game. I've probably spent days in total playing it, especially the modded versions. Too bad it's still so broken and buggy plus the dev quietly abandoned it after all the hype. P.S Just click the province for the second time to move an army to that tile 😉

The developer is back developing a third version 🎉

[@thunderousavenger2382]

​​@@achour.falestine like thats gonna matter ☠☠☠ Aoc2 is a bad game. And i do not trust the dev whatsoever. He never bothered to fix some of the most glaring bugs. (Relations stop working after couple hundred turns, after couple thousand turns saving dont work anymore or the whole save just straight up breaks. Just to name two) And not to mention the beyond annoying way how moving troops works. Granted if aoc3 comes out on mobile and wont be abandoned like the second installment he could make some fat bank, since no one really cares about bringing out actual quality games for the mobile market. I have reason to believe aoc2 never got much needed bug fixes or improvements is becauae of all the 12 year old fanboys defending aoc2 as the greatest thing ever. The least thing the dev couldve done is implement a simple mass division movement system so you dont have to do 50+ clicks per turn just to move your 25 divisions. Its tedious. Just to name one gameplay issue. For a free game its alright. For 5 bucks? No. I refunded it quickly. Then proceeded to crack it ☠ Its not worth 0.5 hours of minimum wage work.

[@-socialcredit]

If you're planning to do a series on this game Alex, here's a few tips that I picked up when I started playing this game 1 year ago. 1. Spam castles on your border provinces. You need that 10% Defence Bonus when you want to expand your land. And if you have high enough tech points, spam fortresses so you could get that sweet 20% Defence Bonus 2. The AI is kinda like Hoi4 in a way. Like they stack troops, they endlessly attack you and all the sht you can get from a paradox game so it's quite easy to outsmart (believe me I did a Napoleon on 5 other nations who declared a coalition against me) but don't get cocky though because no matter what, the AI will attack you with what troops they can build which can be so annoying if you have a massive front to cover so always guard your flanks. 3. Taxation. Taxation. Taxation. Tax the poor 4. Always remember to adjust your Taxation, Goods and Research bars so you'll get a good amount of Tax and Research points. 5. since you're new, always quicksave so you have something to go back to when you fck up in 1 save, you can just load the other save. 6. if you have a big enough army, you could threaten nations with ultimatums. you could either force them to become your puppet or just completely annex them it depends though on your army size, how threatening you are, and your great power status it's a 75% chance that they'll accept but it's worth the thousands of army and population deaths right? 7. Assimilation. make sure that once you conquered a nation, assimilate their land as soon as possible if don't want them getting funded by your enemies and just endlessly rise up. 7. do colonization at a later turn since it's really a late game feature and it's very expensive to colonize if you don't have a tech level of 85 above so just do colonization when you feel like conquering native peoples. 8. if you're having trouble with nation's vassals, send the vassal you want to "free" a trade request, select "declare war" and select their lord and that's it basically they just accept even though you didn't offer them anything which is great that's the tips that i could really give since this game can be fun if you know how to play it like me so goodluck Alex and hopefully you don't screw up this game in future videos like Hoi4
