Reiters firing in melee makes sense historically since wheel/matchlock firearms were usually fired from point-blank range in order to not only ensure a hit (smooth bore being notoriously inaccurate) but also to ensure maximum armor penetration since the armor of the time could out right stop shots from longer distances.
As a guy who rage quit the game for about two years, after the Axe Raiders broke the game, it’s incredibly refreshing to see units that look cool and fun, but not OP.
I still think are raiders were the worst because of their combination of op ranged attacks and phasing through units. Outriders and shenji were op that season too but they weren't touched because they kept raiders in check. Funny thing was that it was my first 😅.
The truth is that team play is becoming more important this season. You can't play these units individually. Frankly, I was extremely complaining about people who didn't adopt team play in many games. It will be difficult to play these units, on the other hand, they are the units that will show the highest usefulness in a good team. Before the players knew how to play T5 units in the Iskender season, they seemed very weak, but after learning how to play, we realized their true power. I'm sure we will figure out the effectiveness of these units as the season progresses.
Cannons would be amazing for defense or offense siege fights. pop these guys down to defend a gate entrance or to stop the enemy from pushing a siege tower. These cannons will be super helpful to allow your team to push through mobs. Especially iron reapers since their armor is still in OP levels. Stealth/longbow players will turn them into free food though.
I have a feeling this is going to be a decent season, Im glad theyve added some units that can help with the current meta. Cav has been super op recently but obviously for good reason too. Do you know why they havent added the old maps back ? I feel like ive been getting the same maps, im a returning player so im not sure if that has something to do with the season
If you new player you kinda get same 5-6 maps over and over again until lvl 200+. That's because you face a lot of times bots etc. After that you get way more maps. With evry season there is always a new map too.
@@DuckyNobu oh ok, my account level is 500. I’ve been playing since the first season on and off… I haven’t gotten any of the maps I used to get recently. I’m ready for the new season though. Thank you !💪🏼
i was gona think the Tier 5 was gona be absolutly Op since they would be 3 canons and 1 singel canon ball wiped out 90% if a phalanx formation and the guns would be insane has a wall
I think its a gud T5 and even if its Ultra OP. The good thing is its range isn't like Falconetti and shoot time is high. You know what that means ? it will take only 5 seconds for hashashin to scoop in, then i hit Decimate (2nd skill) then run out. ez kills
T3 can't charge and survive properly, prolly skill 2 is best to use for hit and run missions, but then again why not go outriders for that purpose? T4 can block only small doorways with that wall of pikes, takes time and anticipation to know when and where to properly place them and the unit itself is really bad(lvl 24, 5.6 k life and literally worse than a T3 musket). T5 shots are very slow and not able to arc over obstacles, which was the whole point in sieging and pairing them with 1 falco unit(which would have been demented). This season is worse than I thought it would be.
Механики интересные, но юниты крайне сомнительные. Кавалерия мякго говоря слаба даже против пехоты с ммечами, мушкеты очередной отряд импотентов которые из за низкой точности даже на ближних дистанциях будут очень слабы и никакие шипы их не спасут хотя они и интересны. Артилерия зайдет для кланов на войне будет неплоха при дефе ворот разносить толпы при заходе картечью в рандомных боях при одиночной игре или игре без связи в рандомной пати ее будут уничтожать очень легко любой мимо пробегающий герой как это почти всегда в случае с лучниками. В целом юниты интерестные в плане механик, но многие не смогут на них давать хоть какие то удовлетворительные результаты.
With doctrines, Cannons might have more rate of fire & in blob fight, this grapeshot cannon can knock down entire group in single volley ( which is HUGE imo) .

axe riders was nothing compared to berserks, maa and wuweis now lol every season has them but ppl learn to work around it actually think a bit
@@Monkeesh bro when berserkers touched you it was insta death
@@kungpowsesame8260now max vet MAA is insta death

that was the worst season they ever released.
That tier five unit really embodies the 'Glass Cannon' archetype.
I already am concerned considering all longbow and shortbow mains harassing me no matter what

Seems like another good balanced season. They really getting the hand of the unit balancing
Dam those spikes look so op but need good timing as they only last about 15secs
this new season is going to be fire man
Ironcap scouts will probably be quite usefull to counter cannons. (with 30% speed doctrine)
the aim target is limit but if you aim at the right spot the cannon travel straight till the end of the map.

Infantry has been OP recently
I just started playing again too, how are you liking it so far?
Hashashin be like "It's free estate season"
they look sick, ima start the game again and see how this season pans out
Guess ill be main str Maul for this season. So I can spin on those ranged units and erase them
i was gona think the Tier 5 was gona be absolutly Op since they would be 3 canons and 1 singel canon ball wiped out 90% if a phalanx formation and the guns would be insane has a wall
this opens the door to so many things, imagine engineer units capable up putting up a form of wall or barricade
Those Tier 5 will really need coordination with your team mates, And i can see them in defence, Cause you will have time to set it up
I though T5 cannon unit gonna use like round shots but turn out it's canister shots seem like this T5 gonna need heavyly guard by team
The T4 need higher dmg, they use high caliber arquebuses which are more powerful than the earlier matchlock.
they look pretty balanced devs can always tweak things later on
reminds me of tiger knight which unfortunetly closed
shiet, i want my money back, or the canon fire all the way to the gate from that distance.
cannons free kill for cavs or any fast sword unit while building or reloading XD
Yeah they are free food for cav for sure.
@@DuckyNobu They can climb walls right ? becoz they seem to carry the tools on shoulder. Free food for Hashashins specially
@@rikrishshrestha5421 No.They can't go on ladders.But you can build cannons evrywhere.
You should've tried the other ability first with the cav. Might've went differently.
so hussars are the best in the game now?
do the pikes in the ground stay if you keep your muskets near?
No. 15 sec only
@@DuckyNobu ahh, sad, I hope that is changed
Swinfeather got some bugs. Sometimes they shoot at the wall. 😂
I did saw that.I though they just stupid.
are there any mansion guard nerfs coming?
Sadly not.
im feeling conflicted about the new t5 unit ngl
I think its a gud T5 and even if its Ultra OP. The good thing is its range isn't like Falconetti and shoot time is high.
You know what that means ? it will take only 5 seconds for hashashin to scoop in, then i hit Decimate (2nd skill) then run out. ez kills
solid anticav 👏
how can i change camera angle like yours
Angles you mean rotating around? You can use the thinkie wheel on the mouse to look further or closer.
thanks bro 360h in this game and i didnt know bout that
no future for cavalry in hot weapon era
gwuards
why i cant see that blood on floor in my gameplay??
Graphics? Maybe try some better graphics or something.
@@DuckyNobu which one graphic ??
@@aryankatheriya471 i mean use higher graphics in the game. Like normal or high graphics?
No he should turn on bloddy to show in settings then he can see blood
@@venatorking can you tell me step by step ??
