Age of Strategy Forums

I have a problem. I was last three days on a trip with my class, and now lot of my good games are now lost/unplayable due to others skipping my turns. Couldn't there be some mode, which when activated would freeze all your games? It could be activated a limited number of times in something (month, y...

Which level do you mean?

@Daniel - they aren't, but hey, I am attending school. I think I will get it finished around June.

Well, then I vote for orthogonal attack only.

Yup, and blacksmith gives +1 to each attack!

But then it doesn't pay off to research these techs, because the buildings will work later. (bridges, barracks, castles, towers, watch towers...)

Maybe only give the diagonal attack/movement to some units?

When I have Massive walls tech, buildings are built for longer time because of the extra HP. I think that this doesn't happen with Masonry.

Addition to the post above: Especially catapults, trebuchets and rams, which are slow. Build blacksmiths! A +2 atk samurai can defeat a knight! When the map is huge, it may pay off to build more blacksmiths and after the researches are done, destroy them. Fortify your TCs and especially if the map h...

Same here. Build lots of knights, surround Troy and then build spartans and catapults. Yes, it is ugly, but sadly, a lot of maps are like this

Specify. You mean fire archers, or some 'torchbearers'?
Also, it would probably affect ships rather than buildings, because most of AoS buildings are shown to be made of stone.

Lemme see - Blacksmith, the best of them all. I love the sweet bonuses, so I sometimes build two blacksmiths. :twisted: Second - I can't decide between longbow, samurai and missionaries. Third - Either dock, siege workshop or church. The worst - Horse archer, because of low damage output compared to...

Because AI is weaker than an average human player. Refer to the dev's topic 'How AI works' for more info.

Catapults are even now balancing between good and overpowered unit. Upgrade for catapults would result into everybody building catapults and nothing else. Same goes for ornithopters. If you've not noticed yet, rams have already tons of health and are nearly immune to pierce attacks.

Yes, it would, but there is no chat system outside the game and everyone sees it on the forum.

But there is a problem - poison archer can kill a healer/missionary in one turn, before he can heal anything.

There should be an invite into multiplayer game function, because before a little while I joined a four player game made by stratego with name 'For Mairon+Balint+Kirk', but when I joined, I saw that the other two slots were already occupied by somebody else tan Balint&Kirk. It should work like t...

Meee! If it's not too late.

Dude, don't worry! The more the merrier applies even here! I doubt that there are less Croatians than Czechs - there are only ten million of us, and no other Czech than me probably plays the game, but what if? Then a Czech translation will be handy! Same applies about Croatians!

Good idea, but maybe only twice per game? And it would be +24 hrs?

Native Czech speaker here.

The new chess map. It is simple, not like the rest, which are a competition 'who will design the strongest army against the strongest castle (and +20pts. for the mapmaker if each side has at least 3 catapults and 5 spartans)'. From random games I like the world map, because it has a good water-to -e...

The same here. I have SGS3, if it matters.

Oh, I didn't notice .

Well, poisoned archers now deal 10 dmg before the enemy can even move, and it deals at least 6 dmg regardless of armor, which is 100% more than the normal archer's attack, not counting the poison dmg after the first turn, making it roughly 150% more effective than the normal archer, costing only 50%...

175 hp maybe? Though ornithopters can fly above and destroy the catapult or other kinds of artillery behind it (and only if enemies will be enabled to fly/sail through/on them), it's still a lot more than normal walls and players may prefer to build this over normal walls. Maybe make workers deal 1 ...

I would think of it like a bridge. 1) I can't help you with that one. 2) Ship. Moats should be attackable. 3) Yes, he should be able to, but it will look weird if the enemy cannot walk on your bridge but can sail on your moat, so make both either passable or impassable by the enemy (and by allies, i...

We already have spartans which are quite the same. It would be better if you made it different somehow. Maybe a lot more hp than spartan but slow movement? Also note that almost nobody can strike through armor 20/10 and near nobody survives a 30 dmg hit. This can kill even a spartan in two hits, whi...

Wait- you say that he is made in 4 turns, has 20 hp, 2 range, strong bonuses against every 'normal' unit and CAN BE MADE IN BARRACKS??? Clearly OP. Weak 'defense' which I suppose means armor, is even worse-most units have none! AND THIS IS QUITE CHEAP ARMORED STRONG LONG RANGE UNIT WITH LOTS OF HP!?...

Berserker upgrade unit, costs 4 gems. Turns-5 Move-3 Hp-17 Attack-10 Armor-0/0 conv.res.-20% (explanation: he is so dumb that he doesn't care what the priest says) Ability-Rage range-0 (can cast only on self) effect-for the next turn he gains +4/+4 armor, +1 move, +80% conv. res. and +8 attack (and ...
