Aztec surprisingly have a decent late game. If you allow the Aztec player to get a decent gold economy they can spam Eagle Runner Knights which lose only to skirmishers and artillery. Which are easy to counter with coyote runners and arrow knights. Actually ended up beating a French player because of Eagle Runner Knights. Definitely their best unit late game. Maces fall off HARD late game due to having no shipment upgrades besides the health bonus. So you gotta switch off of them during the fortress age into Eagle Runner Knights.

*Ottoman empire* Let's see what he says about this civ. Ottomans are 1 of 2 breeds: 1st - They are from a country previously owned by them. *Sweats profoundly*
@@SamuraiRevolution You really nailed the nail on the coffin with this one. I am from Bulgaria and also an active Otto player and my country was under Ottoman rule for nearly 5 hundred years.
Ottoman: I'm a new player with the attention span of a fly and I constantly forget to produce more villagers, so Ottomans produce them automatically, which is good for me.
The french one cracked me up, I've never related to something so much. What do you mean I can't fix my problems with more Imperial Gendarme? Lemme prepare a one-man army instant invasion with a builder and a stable
I wish that the Huns in aoe 2 won the battle of the catalaunian plains and ransack the entirety of gaul so fucking Hard, that the french will litterally be destroyed until they simply become more extinct than the dinosaurs of the entire jurrasic era and therefore saving us from the terror of french mains and the entire french civilization in this game forever.
Dude the french are ridiculous strong. I dismantled the highest difficulty AI in 15 minutes. With every other faction I play I get absolutely fucked. Including the overpowered USA and the fucking annoying ethiopia.
Russia, quantity over quality , it's just a stupid stereotype. Russia defeated the Mongols not by quantity, but by skill. defeated the Swedes, defeated Poland-Lithuania. so it's funny for me to listen to this nonsense.
@@fyurerys Russia defeated Sweeds on Poltava fields by quantity(30 000 Sweeds X 75 000 Russians). They also went for quantity in Napoleon wars. In the first Commonwealth-Russian war the russians had two times the size of the opposing Polish-Lithuanian army in the most battles. In the second war, the numbers were 100 000 - 115 000 men for the russians and around 40 000 men for the Polish-Lithuanians. And I think that I don't need to mention that since spring 1943 the russians had around 7 000 000 men on the eastern front while the germans had only 3 400 000(but yeah I know WW2 is not in AOE3 so this propably does not count). You see... the russians won because they had more experienced commanders and significantly more troops than their opponent. So the "stereotype" is actually true in most cases.
It's been almost 10 years since I played age of empires III for the last time, but I remember I loved playing with Spanish and Portuguese. As Spanish, I produced many tercios and send them just to destroy enemy buildings and then avoid my enemy to have many villagers. As Portuguese, I used the boom strategy due to their many town centers it was quite easy.

Evangeline Anovilis The pikemen are no joke, they are anti-cav and have siege bonus, so you don’t really need mortars or cannons for building destroying, so you can skip artillery all together and focus on other units. And in coast maps, a single galleon spamming pikemen right in front of the enemy, raiding houses and halting the economy... ah, gloriosos días los de aquel nuestro Glorioso Imperio...
@@ricardodemarco3486 Yeah, you can use them early on with some crossbowmen for Age 2 rushes, but they still are good afterwards, given Spain can upgrade them to tercios. With the right upgrades, they do have a good bit of hp, they end cavalry and as you said, they are annoying as hell for raids. I typically don't forgo field guns for them, given the value of artillery against armies, but once the enemy army got wiped pikes can still make a great spammable unit to send into the enemy base to burn down stuff. Or, as you said, drop a few in a location where the enemy does not expect them and start pillaging.
@@Evangeline.F You can fucking mass them like zergs on the late game, and INSTANTLY create them. This is the closest to damn goths from aoe2 that I've found on aoe3.
I used to play russians until I noticed spanish can literally instantly create archaic units with like 1 or 2 cards and some minor upgrades. Who wants strelets when you can have instant tercios and crossbows (YES not joking when you literally vomit them out instantly they are very decent)
@@oom-3262 I am a russian player and I usually use muskets, sometimes along with cannons and cavalry. Occasionally grenadiers are interesting too. Strelets aren't good in the late game because they use population so inefficiently because they are so weak. Sometimes I don't get them in age 2 either because they are so easily killed by cavalry. I always use muskets but only sometimes strelets along with them. You get get more power on the board at at time with a stronger unit. One of my favorite tricks though was to do an age 2 rush, switch to eco after sending in some resource crates and military units, spam strelets while going to age 3, then use the card to change strelets into muskets (this saves you a couple thousand resources if you have more than 100 strelets when the change happens), then ship a cannon shipment. So it is a fast age 2 rush followed up 5-10 minutes later with +100 veteran muskets and cannons. Then I build 3 town centers and get 99 villies before my musket and cannon army is dead, if it fails to finish them off.
My fav is France, and not because how easy it is to play with it, but because I was into French history, Napoleon etc. back in the days when I started playing AoE3, so I wanted to see how accurate the game was. And it happens that I really enjoyed France and I still do, although I very much enjoy playing every other civ in the game. It’s just that France is the closest to my heart if you know what I mean ;D 👍
Every strategy game I've played, like EU3, Civ, Vikky 2, CK 2, etc, my first pick is always France. I'm a big Francophile so it's my go-to country. I do play other civs too, but I keep going back to France 💙🤍💗
Portuguese description accurate, can confirm. I dont even build any military unit until age 3. Only after i get attacked. Though that sometimes messes me up

I've played as the Ottomans for years (At least 10) but all I ever do is "Turtle", I don't think I've ever rushed once in my life....I guess in the words of John Green from crash course history...."I'm the exception" Queue the Mongols err Turks.
Ottoman player here... I have to say yeah... the cavalry is pretty OP, but I like the turtle strat with them cuz of the great f.kin bombard... and of course the broken as hell janassery abus combo
This was great! I started out playing with Brit but because of your videos, I’ve developed all the civs, basically trying out decks or strats I see in your videos! Aztecs are a current favorite at the moment cuz of that skull knight rush vid you did with danzil. Love the content man, keep it up!

@@SamuraiRevolution Russia, quantity over quality , it's just a stupid stereotype. Russia defeated the Mongols not by quantity, but by skill. defeated the Swedes, defeated Poland-Lithuania. so it's funny for me to listen to this nonsense.
Eagle Runner Knight has no known counter? What? Eagle Runner Knight is a substitute for ranged cavalry, countered by heavy and long range infantry. Coyote runner is a substitute for heavy cavalry, countered by heavy infantry and ranged cavalry.
"He's gonna say Russians love spam, I know it." *Russia & spam* "Knew it." Anyways, nice video. :p Honestly, I play Russia because I like setting up an area of the map as my own and defending it. I've always been more fond of quality over quantity too, but losing troops makes me sort of freeze up- with Russia, losing troops is so inevitable that I do a better job of replacing them and fuss far less over each lost unit.
Wow, just wow!Love this video (as every other video of yours) and I'm kinda India-main if there's a term like that, and imo India is the lamest when u boom with Karni mata colonial, super cheap TCs, 2 Mango grove in base with karni mata, etc.Then u hit imp eventually and spam the hell out of ur opponent with maxed out mahouts, gurkhas and exp tigers.Oh and also gotta love the opponent's walls down, cease, slowly march in their eco and use taunt 16 (I'm in ur base, killing ur dudes) part!That's the best about India!
unless you've been in a cave your whole life and play offline, then you would absolutely know how accurate this is. And oh yea... treaty players XD don't get me started with them
Russia: Rush quick, rush hard! Aztecs: Blooooooooood! Ottomans: Bombs, bombs, bombs! Sioux: Raid & pillage! British: For Great Britain! Portugal: Attack, run, repeat France: Build tons of Cuirassiers Japan: Build houses, make soldiers, sneak that horse in. Germany: Crush thy enemy with sheer power! Iroquois: Tomahawk your opponent; never use the ram China: when #'s don't triumph, make more #'s Dutch: Money, money, moneeeeey! India: Build a great fortress, build great elephants. Spain: Pikes & missionaries for the win!
As an Ottoman player from somewhere not previously Ottoman... totally on point. lol Edit: and then I lost my shit when also Portugal was accurate. Well played
for me, playing dutch is like "wanting to play hit and run comps without actually wanting to hit and run". Because that's essentially what the Ruyter feels like sometimes, lol
True...when i used to play as russia my mind was like lets see how far can u keep the fight on as im sending endless streletsy and musketeers at you.or when i play as ottoman just jennissaries and great bombards....we are gonna blow everything away in one punch.
I actually started playing france because a friend was being annoying as japan and frances good eco vils and good skirmishers made sure if he failed at rushing me I would russia him with skirmish some musk and cav and out eco him by a large margin Edit: Also some culverins so ı can snipe fire arrows
Mexicans from Wars of Liberty mod: - Free pistoleros/outlaws with each researched technology (highly effective raiders which you will automatically use since they use so much population) - Soldaderas (anti cav infantry) can heal. - Stupidly high hp for insurgentes (regular infantry). - Explorer can build three different presidios from which you can train settlers and soldiers. - Farmable XP from Generales if put on a capitol (Generales also function as an overpowered spy which can set fires). - XP overtime from houses (early shipment). They're just the perfect definition for turtling and winning but a bit op imo
I play French but use mostly skirmishers with artillery as backup. I usually bring a small squad of cavalry to snipe high value targets (like cannons and daimyos), go attack buildings while the skirmishers buy time, and harass weakpoints in enemy formations.
The last time I played this game was years ago when I was a kid who had no idea that multiplayer even existed. All I ever did was build artillery and blow everything up.
Funny...until this video I had no idea this game could even be played multiplayer, & I've played this game for many many years. Heck the AI almost always beats me, and I suck at anything PvP...so I'll skip it, but it's neat to know.
But cost effectively though? Pretty sure you can more eagles faster foe less than it takes to get 7 bombards, IIRC you can't train them, only get them from cards, factories, and the one mosque upgrade. Eagles you can spit out as many as you want whenever you want starting in age 3
@@21Arrozito: This was ment to be a joke. Now, you can have 7-8 great bombard cannons, and if they're well protected, they'll kill anything. But, I was messing around. Getting 7 Great Bombard Cannons in a live game is almost impossible.
I've gotta be honest. Although I haven't played AOE 3 for a while now. Because eventually I do get tired of a certain game and have to take a break from it. However I still enjoy your channel, like I've always had! And this video, man I love it! Everything about it is great! Keep up what you are doing and never change!
and then there’s me. Still only playing against AI

Cannons are the best counter to them I always find

The Eagle Knight Runners are the backbone of an Aztec army. Combined with jaguars & pikes; they are very formidable.

That feel when Sioux and French are your favorite civs.
"They love seeing players frustrated when they can't break their base that consists only of a few units and a tower"
So true tho 😂😭
Honestly I played the Turks for the bombards. I love the sound of cannons in the morning xD
I picked Russian because i could spam motherfucking Tchaikovsky's Overture during a rush and yeah...
"I can hear the sound of the bombards
My victory is insured"
Well you got me on the ottoman one! Fellow Turkish patriot here :D
:D
0:03 "conscript reporting"
Whoops, wrong game.
They're meat shields
Oh man that was pure gold
what your fav civ says about you :
(short version)
1. Brits = you love villagers
2. Sioux = you love horses
3. French = you love horses with pistols
4. German = you love fancy horses
5. Spain = you love black horses
6. Ottoman = you love to rush your military at all cost
7. Russia = you love army in huge numbers
8. Dutch = you think you're Rothschild family
9. Protugal = you like to spam city centers
10. Mohawk = you love stealth
11. Aztec = you love bunch of infantries with fancy names
12. China = you love junk ship
13. India = you love big badass elephants
14. Japan = you're villagers too lazy to hunt (land) animals
I LOVE the Sioux. I like to play with 20 minute treaties so that I have time to make a group of dog soldiers. 🤠
I've played as the Ottomans for years (At least 10) but all I ever do is "Turtle", I don't think I've ever rushed once in my life....I guess in the words of John Green from crash course history...."I'm the exception"
Queue the Mongols err Turks.
As Player of Dutch and India, This is So Accurate
Ottoman player here... I have to say yeah... the cavalry is pretty OP, but I like the turtle strat with them cuz of the great f.kin bombard... and of course the broken as hell janassery abus combo
When ur a french player who never uses the op cav but still win ;)
Very nice Video! Greetings from Germany and a Great Britan Player
Lelz, now i understand why france and japan are my two favorite civilitions.
It wasn’t a coincidence after all.
This was great!
I started out playing with Brit but because of your videos, I’ve developed all the civs, basically trying out decks or strats I see in your videos! Aztecs are a current favorite at the moment cuz of that skull knight rush vid you did with danzil.
Love the content man, keep it up!
Thank you! Thanks for the support
Great video dude.
I'm glad that even after so long, you've stayed committed to making different content out there.
I know for a fact you'll do great when AOEIV realeases. =)
Thank you my friend!!
Didn't expect the Dutch description be so nieche and accurate. Thank you.
Thanks for watching Andy!
I Like the habsburgs
What does this Tell?
I Like wol and OP civs
Oh boy so do I. Habsburg is quality over quantity
and incest
One of the most gold costing civ
@@radianceJR On the other hand, once you choose to marry your daughter with some holland dude, an get to imperial age, even spaming all out armies of dopplesoldner wont make a flinch in your endless supply of gold.
Never has there been a video more accurate. Wow. You need to make more content like this... how about a video entitled "10 Different Type of AoE Players". E.g. The guy that won't ready up until the teams are perfectly balanced or the guy that can only rush and refuses to do anything else, or the guy that is super cocky, starts to lose, lambasts his teammates and then resigns, etc.
Great idea!
YES THIS WOULD BE FUN!
Lol that rage quit vs the aztecs
Guess Samurai really wasn't worth that dude's time
My favourite civilization is Great Britain but I fight like the Russians.
Literally musketeers all in lines ready to fire.
The Germany one is too true for me XD
I never got any of the expansions tho, great vid
Thank you!
@@SamuraiRevolution Russia, quantity over quality , it's just a stupid stereotype. Russia defeated the Mongols not by quantity, but by skill. defeated the Swedes, defeated Poland-Lithuania. so it's funny for me to listen to this nonsense.
@@fyurerys it's in the video game man. We are not talking about real life here lol.
@@fyurerys you dumb, honestly
@@fyurerys You're stupid.
i've played with ottomans non-stop for over 3 years and still rush till 4th age and then start building things and training army
Dutch max bank with mercenaries is op especially with mamalukes
I love Portugal, i love multiple kills with organ guns, i love goon Spam.
You are correct about the british it is main to have as many villagers as you can
Eagle Runner Knight has no known counter? What?
Eagle Runner Knight is a substitute for ranged cavalry, countered by heavy and long range infantry. Coyote runner is a substitute for heavy cavalry, countered by heavy infantry and ranged cavalry.
"He's gonna say Russians love spam, I know it."
*Russia & spam*
"Knew it."
Anyways, nice video. :p Honestly, I play Russia because I like setting up an area of the map as my own and defending it. I've always been more fond of quality over quantity too, but losing troops makes me sort of freeze up- with Russia, losing troops is so inevitable that I do a better job of replacing them and fuss far less over each lost unit.
Wow, just wow!Love this video (as every other video of yours) and I'm kinda India-main if there's a term like that, and imo India is the lamest when u boom with Karni mata colonial, super cheap TCs, 2 Mango grove in base with karni mata, etc.Then u hit imp eventually and spam the hell out of ur opponent with maxed out mahouts, gurkhas and exp tigers.Oh and also gotta love the opponent's walls down, cease, slowly march in their eco and use taunt 16 (I'm in ur base, killing ur dudes) part!That's the best about India!
Hahaha thank you! I love the honesty...so true though!
unless you've been in a cave your whole life and play offline, then you would absolutely know how accurate this is. And oh yea... treaty players XD don't get me started with them
Russia: Rush quick, rush hard!
Aztecs: Blooooooooood!
Ottomans: Bombs, bombs, bombs!
Sioux: Raid & pillage!
British: For Great Britain!
Portugal: Attack, run, repeat
France: Build tons of Cuirassiers
Japan: Build houses, make soldiers, sneak that horse in.
Germany: Crush thy enemy with sheer power!
Iroquois: Tomahawk your opponent; never use the ram
China: when #'s don't triumph, make more #'s
Dutch: Money, money, moneeeeey!
India: Build a great fortress, build great elephants.
Spain: Pikes & missionaries for the win!
Hahaha
the french description was the perfect much for a friend that i have, that playes ONLY FKING FRANCE FOR THOSE DAMN REASONS!!!
LOL
4:07 Your hatred makes us stronger
Edit : you say that, but were fangirling over them quite a bit on the video you used as background ;)
Very funny video but most of these are facts XD
you are one stupid fuck
@@TheHalz lol
The clip of the British settler building a manor while a war was ongoing, is accurate.
My brother plays Ottomans, so he can get the great bombard. Late game he gets a factory, to get unlimited of the most OP unit in the game.
Just make Culvern
Very funny video. As a Japan player I'm painfully aware of the things you humorously pointed out. Spot on analyses.
How much Uhlans you have
Germany: NINE NINE NINE NINE NINE NINE NINE
Nein* moron
@@obiwankenobi785 if I said nein then the answer doesn't connect to the question in the joke you dolt
Make one on WOL
As an Ottoman player from somewhere not previously Ottoman... totally on point. lol Edit: and then I lost my shit when also Portugal was accurate.
Well played
Hahaha thank you!
As a ottoman and french user you nailed this. I have no shame lmao
Hahaha thank you!
Time for an updated version of this in aoe3 DE! With the two new civs and buffed/nerfed old civs
for me, playing dutch is like "wanting to play hit and run comps without actually wanting to hit and run". Because that's essentially what the Ruyter feels like sometimes, lol
True...when i used to play as russia my mind was like lets see how far can u keep the fight on as im sending endless streletsy and musketeers at you.or when i play as ottoman just jennissaries and great bombards....we are gonna blow everything away in one punch.
Exactly!
My counter for every unit of the Aztecs is "Eat all my Great Bombards."
This is true we use Blitzkrieg in every match in every game !!!!
Indians. The Mighty Elephants are hard to defeat.
I actually started playing france because a friend was being annoying as japan and frances good eco vils and good skirmishers made sure if he failed at rushing me I would russia him with skirmish some musk and cav and out eco him by a large margin
Edit: Also some culverins so ı can snipe fire arrows
Mexicans from Wars of Liberty mod:
- Free pistoleros/outlaws with each researched technology (highly effective raiders which you will automatically use since they use so much population)
- Soldaderas (anti cav infantry) can heal.
- Stupidly high hp for insurgentes (regular infantry).
- Explorer can build three different presidios from which you can train settlers and soldiers.
- Farmable XP from Generales if put on a capitol (Generales also function as an overpowered spy which can set fires).
- XP overtime from houses (early shipment).
They're just the perfect definition for turtling and winning but a bit op imo
Ottoman Settlers: It's free.
I play French but use mostly skirmishers with artillery as backup. I usually bring a small squad of cavalry to snipe high value targets (like cannons and daimyos), go attack buildings while the skirmishers buy time, and harass weakpoints in enemy formations.
"Eagle Runner knights have no known counters"
Like, known to privates?
Really good and creative video... you should keep doing "interesting and wierd things about civs" videos non-stop :D
Thank you!!
Now one of Wars of Liberty mod civs.
china - a normal day means 5 different control groups in fortress (skirm, changdao, cav, musk, artillery)
LOL
For me,
1. French
2. Prussia
3. Japan
4. British
5. Spanish
The last time I played this game was years ago when I was a kid who had no idea that multiplayer even existed. All I ever did was build artillery and blow everything up.
Funny...until this video I had no idea this game could even be played multiplayer, & I've played this game for many many years. Heck the AI almost always beats me, and I suck at anything PvP...so I'll skip it, but it's neat to know.
I feel a little insulted (I'm a French player)... But anyway awesome video, as always!
Hey man..it's for fun....I would have lmao if he had said something like "currying the game"..or something for India🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂😂🤣🤣
@@ProCs1100
No thanks
Eh, at least it's historically accurate! :)
"Armored Eagle Knights have no known counter"
*7 GREAT BOMBARD CANNONS WOULD LIKE TO KNOW YOUR LOCATION*
(I play Ottomans)
hahaha well 7 great bombards can beat anything, but that is a special scenario :)
But cost effectively though? Pretty sure you can more eagles faster foe less than it takes to get 7 bombards, IIRC you can't train them, only get them from cards, factories, and the one mosque upgrade. Eagles you can spit out as many as you want whenever you want starting in age 3
@@21Arrozito: This was ment to be a joke. Now, you can have 7-8 great bombard cannons, and if they're well protected, they'll kill anything. But, I was messing around. Getting 7 Great Bombard Cannons in a live game is almost impossible.
Formation Brit here, All True!
I've gotta be honest. Although I haven't played AOE 3 for a while now. Because eventually I do get tired of a certain game and have to take a break from it. However I still enjoy your channel, like I've always had! And this video, man I love it! Everything about it is great! Keep up what you are doing and never change!
Love the honesty and the support!!
