Age of empires 3 DE - 256xTech Mod (Random thought)

Have you seen the mod in aoe2 where you can research technologies hundreds of times without limit?

I was wondering how that would work in aoe3 (including shipments).
So… which tech/shipment spammed without limit would be the wackiest???


Off the top of my head, I would say the IMPROVED BUILDINGS card would make even a lil’ house an absolute fortress, giving all buildings an extra 40% HP every time you send it.

A card that would make units invincible would be the AIGNATIAN SPIRITUALITY card of the Ethiopians, it gives extra HP appart from the ability to regenerate even while in combat, so if you have infinite regeneration, only units with damage bigger than the total of the unit’s HP could kill it.

But if you want to make units faster than sonic on ######## you could try the ROAD BUILDING card of the Inca, that’s 10% speed for every time sent.

And if you want to send nukes to your opponent, you can try the Portuguese RANGEFINDING card, giving mortars an extra 8 range!

As for technologies, I imagine the SPIRIT MEDICINE would be awesome to make villagers absolute units, it’s even better than BLUNDERBUSS and GREAT COAT as it’s cheaper doing both techs at once.

OMG, this one speaks for itself.

And a final one, if you use the Ottomans, might as well make an army of free super-spammable settlers with the MILLET SYSTEM tech, just combine them with the GREAT COATS AND BLUNDERBUSS techs seen before to drown enemies in settlers.

These are just a few examples, surely there are crazier strategies that could even make it possible to fight cheat units, after being sent a bunch of times. I wonder which card/tech would be the most OP, in the lesser amount of times used…

i think many of the french revolution cards would be insane

villagers sieging towncenters with one torch, scaring enemies so much, they wouldnt even do damage anymore and if the vills kill one unit, they get infinite xp

warchief cards could be interesting too

Might be the most OP if spammed.

incendiary grenades researched gives extra splash to grens, eventually you could hit the whole map with one grenade

Combine with the GRENADE LAUNCHER card and you get the equivalent of the super mangonel from aoe2

Wait… oh my god…OH NOOOO!!!

iirc interjection back in the day did a series where all shipments would have double effect which already lead to some hilarious effects.

the most hilarious that I remember is instant spawing(not building) which lead to this hilarious moment

In TAD you could build houses like that after british team card. Laming to locate chinese villages (land grab) in enemy bases and send 30 ratan shields, FCrows and consulate armies (which come faser thanks to confucian gift) haha

Yes, thats why i said war chief cards^^

The problem with town destroyer is, it only boosts siege
so u could easily kill the warchief with every other card
