One time I actually used siege towers and they worked bc a lot of times he quickwalls and uses mangonels to guard against rams n stuff. A couple of times I've been raided but flanked him and raided his base, and we wound up base swapping. We know each others strategies too well and so we both have to think of out of the box things.

    Would have beem nice to have some error bars on those numbers. The lowest results could have just been random chance to my mind.

    Who wins? An army of samurai and arbs vs an army of huskarls and hand cannons.

  • @BlueShellshock

    Ah, it's so rare we see mass infantry battles. Usually the meta is archers duking it out with knights and everything else is support, but the existence of Goth Huskarls is probably the only reason they can stand on their own as an Infantry Civ. Japanese lack that anti-archer answer, Skirms falling off in Imperial, their Siege having no bonuses, and no Paladin -- Japanese v. Goth is probably the only time we really CAN see a battle like this.

    Japanese IMO are a better matchup over Goths. ACCM should have went full Champion over Sams. You can lose barracks, but you cant lose castles and that's why he lost. Gold control too cost him as well. Champs are cheaper and they have better attack vs other champs.

    • @jefffinkbonner9551
      @jefffinkbonner9551 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Exactly. Sams aren’t better than champs enough to justify the +50% gold cost (30 vs 20) and bottlenecked production.
      Also needed better walling to protect against raids

    Infantry battles are interesting and fun to watch, as are cavalery, archers , siege, and navy, but you rarely win with one type of troops alone. Daut won this game thanks to infantry AND Trebs AND scirmichers AND better multitasking AND map controle.

    What are your thoughts on mirrored maps instead of procedural maps? it seems to me that sometimes the terrain is in your favor and sometimes it is your downfall where people could argue about the result of the match due to luck and what not. Will a mirrored map even make a difference in the first place?

    I really don't think Samurai is the move here. Japanese Champions are just as strong as Elite Samurai when fighting opposing Champions, while also being wayyy cheaper and not requiring Castles. You should only go for Samurai if the Goth player is going heavily into Huskarl, IMO.

  • @bm8985
    @bm8985 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    Daut spent a lot of time damaging castles forcing Accm to repair using sooo much stone. Stone that could have been used to secure more map and gold and increase samurai production.

    Hey T90, I know this video is a couple of weeks old now, but I wanted to reply to your comment at the end about games we'd be interested in. I definitely enjoy these rarer style matchups and I'd be interested to see how naval civs play a "conventional" land game. So not Malay instantly going for a infinite fish traps + 2H Swords or fast Feitoria stuff, but like how do Italians/Portuguese/Malay play on a water-less map. Bonus points if its not Arena, but no judgment if it is. :P Love the youtube only content!

    A good viability for goths would be outposts have a tower attack. And at the imperial age they can standard wall

    lol I used to think this was how the game was played .... in the old days used to make cav archers as any civ because I thought you needed all three of cav, infantry, and archers, so they could get you two at once.

    • @simontheteacher1942
      @simontheteacher1942 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Samurais are stronger then goths champions, because they attack faster so have more dps. Compared to japanese champions, samurai are a bit underwelming for their cost though
