Oldschool and newschool friends welcome. Discuss favorite mods, interesting strategies, the sexual viability of vipers, you name it. Truth be told i've never played the original XCOM UFO Defense, but I do see that it has been put on sale for a buck on GoG. The reviews are high and I enjoyed NuCom 1 and 2 a fair bit. What's so great about it?

Base Xcom2 is a bit barren, but it's short and still a good time.

Do I suck or is the campaign kinda hard? Spend the whole day playing the second serpentholm level where Otomo betrays you (I'm playing serpent). You start in a kinda shitty unsafe spot and get fucked up by dragon and wolf clan every few min, even just trying to defend with towers and all was impossible. Dunno it just takes so fucking long to make some fucking units. I finished it by first rushing one of the wolfs clan areas, then I rebuild my army and abandoned my own base once I got attacked by the wolf and dragon clan, while they destroyed my stuff I finished the rest of the wolf clan so it was a fair 1vs1 afterwards. But I had to completely rebuild everything afterwards as I only took one peasant with me. I play on easy and set game speed to the slowest possible while in combat.

>>456279 The best strategy was to abandon the Serpentholm, rush the Dragon base right across the river, destroy Otomo's Keep and crush the Wolf bases on the north. The game always start the mission in bad spot so you really have to think outside of the box. One tip is to constantly harass your enemies, waiting for your population to reach maximum is a huge waste of time.

Is anyone here really good in BR? Any advice on how to control your units during battles? My Problem is that all units do what they want and die super stupid cause of this.>range units get raped by melee enemy Running away from enemies is so fucking hard, you have to permanently click so they don't fight back, sucks cuz you then can't do anything else. It's a little easier to flee if I sent some of my units on the attackers ass, but then I have to remove some of them from the front to help my back line.>geishas suiciding Those fucking whores won't stay in the back, read online that getting them horses would help them survive longer but honestly, that only makes them run into the battle faster from my experience.>units leave the place they are supposed to defend When you build a watchtower and put 1-2 units next to it to defend your base they always fucking leave their position to go into the battle or worse even follow the enemy in the woods or something where they get raped. The only way I got them to stay was using musketeers with the sniper skill activated as they are physically not able to move in that state. The ingame commands don't do shit either.

For me the saddest part is how much work went into all those start dates that are not palyable anymore. For me idea of replaying actual 30 years war, or surpressing Dutch revolt or altering Ottoman-Safavid war outcome was something absolutely unique all present in one game. But they abandoned all start dates besides the first one and made the game into fantasy bullshit that never follows or even resembles actual wrold history.

>>458848 >it's impossible to never war with hissho as other factions will eventually colonize your mines That's why you switch to religion, it doesn't count as war if it's never officially declared.
Those fleets bombing your capital are just fanatical militants bro, I never even heard of them, nor do they represent the enlightened HIssho religion (Blood Sisters or something? idk).
And even without religion cleaning up outposts isn't terribly difficult, although it does make your neighbours pissed off at you.
A tiny bit of war to put a retard in his place is different from a playstyle fully focused on it, even pacifists fight wars if push comes to shove.

Their old "set happiness to content" law drove the point home in particular, it was a big fat "I never want to be bothered by overexpansion or happiness ever", worked wonders on Cravers since it also enabled free slave usage.
But nowadays that law's been ruined and it's a party that exists almost exclusively for the sake of it's default law. Vodyani get something better out of it at least.
When it comes to pure happiness Military party is far better still.

HELLO /vst/ i am an elite skirmisher, the most worthless unit in AOE2. why i am i worthless? because the absolute dogshit AI in this game makes me attack the closest unit, instead of the archers i am supposed to be fighting. also, the dogshit AI means that enemy archers wont be attacking me since i am in the back and not in the front. therefore the bonus damage against archers is worthless. therefore the bonus armor against archers is worthless. I, the elite skirmisher, am a fundamentally flawed unit. of course all units in AOE2 are fundamentally flawed to the point of worthlessness. so that is par for the course in this broken retarded game.

>>455202 -Learn buildorders if you haven't already
-Know unit counters
-Hotkeys help as well
The AI is weakest in the early game, rushing him with a few scouts in feudal is probably the easiest way to beat it. Except maybe towers but that's a bit of an exploit since the AI can't deal with it at all.
Don't fight his army with your scouts, instead just use them pick off some his vills. If you manage that you should be able to go to castle earlier than the AI and beat it easily

What campaign would you like to see in a future Graviteams DLC? For me, I personally can see some Rzhev battles in the future It's 1942-43 so they could easily reuse the assets and show some futile meatgrinder soviet assaults on well entrenched german positions (both summer and winter campaings are viable) which would be pure Graviteam kino It's surprising they haven't done this already For something a bit more original, they could maybe do 43-44 winter campaign (Korsun Pocket) which could show newer German tech (Panthers, Tigers) facing impossible odds against Soviet offensives in hellish winter conditions Goddamn it, I love this game so much
