You dont even know how much of an impact +2 range with +1/1 is going to have. Jesus. Stop the napkin math. Rage forest just showed us how strong hand cannons can be.
I also love how you list all the advantages of arbs but ignore hand cannon advantages.
How do I not know it?
I literally gave you seven points showing how Indian HCs are still not powerful enough to make them en masse, comparing them with Briton archers (who have similar extra range)
HC are just THAT underpowered.
What advantages? The advantages of having to pay 45 food for a frail archer unit?
The advantages of having to research 300f 200g tech before even making a single unit?
The advantages of dying harder to Cavalry due to lack of micro-ability?
The advantages of missing half the shots when at near full range?
The advantages of a huge frame delay?
The advantages of a being locked in Imperial age, also with a longer training time?
Of course, from the Incas they could get 2 new civs: Tupi (with the cunhambebe campaign that would go from 1555 to 1563) and Mapuches (with the Lautaro campaign that would go from 1553 to 1557)… and a Mayan campaign would have Hunac Ceel (1185-1194), who in 1194 conquered Chichen Itza and maintained control of the region until 1441.
We literally have a civ which gets the HC (an imperial unit with “advantages”) in Castle Age, and we HARDLY EVER see them making it. They always go for Crossbows over HCs
That I doubt that the Chinese like to play with their country divided into factions, not so much the Chinese as individuals but the Chinese government that seeks Chinese unity at any cost…
Yes, but the issue is that I run out of ships to free the area for the cargo to pass,and I can not tell to the cargo,“wait for me to create more ships to protect you”, the ship launches itself and what happens that the Han navy have destroyed it …I think that Lake Poyang must be the most difficult historical battle of the whole game by far…
And that I play more aoe 3 DE, I enter aoe 2 DE, I look at the roster of civs and I say “hey there are not like many European civs”?.. in AoE 3 DE you have the 9 European civs that were since the launch, the other 11 civs are from all the rest of the planet…6 American (4 Natives and 2 Post-Colonial), 3 Asian and 2 African…
There is always the possibility no?.. in AoE 3 DE they put cooperatives the historical battles of the dlcs, and you can play it with a friend, even if he does not have the dlcs…
