Single villager survives. _ Rebuilds an entire Kingdom - Yet humbly decides to remain a villager.
lol youre deftly very aware of social problems
The villager can't run fast enough to be king.
a real human bean
ran fast enough to survive lol
Good one. But is it really less surprising than the possibility gaining a 200 population from that same one villager? If you somehow explain that problem, you can simply say the villager hid behind and later in the just built town centre or castle he just built and got replaced by a double. Then he went on to become the special unit of his nation.
Villager in the dark ages are able to shoot accurately at wild charging boar and deer, but trained archers need to research ballistics and thumb-ring to hit a moving man.
hahahaahah truuee
lolol
Don't forget military missile weapons immediately rendering any animals killed by them inedible.

oh my god 😂😂😂
How one villager can benefit from two-man saw.
specially the female villagers
Hahaha!
You clearly haven't seen enough cartoons
You got me man 😂😂
Thanks for that funny comment though
and how do you get benefits from Horse collar if there's no horse? and what about the mesoamericans who don't even get horses?
Gimli is right. Elephants only count as 1.

You forgot that a single boar can destroy a civilization and a Japanese samurai speaks fluent Spanish immediately after conversion.
Miguk Moonpark have not you watched any “ninja/samurai” movie from the 70’s or 80’s translated to spanish?
lmao
As for the boar comment. Have you seen Game of thrones?
Thing is, to be converted, he probably was fluent in the first place.
Because 1 year in a game is three sec, so he could learn Spanish during this time.
Well obviously buildings are hardest to convert. It's like talking to a wall with them!
*Literally* hardest. :,D You know how walls are: hard and rigid!
"Hi, I would like to talk to you about our Lord and Savior? Hello? Anyone in there?"
Jehova Witnesses!! Don't open the doors!! D:
Maybe you are converting the people operating the building :D
My sofa is convertible
As an construction worker, i can confirm that repairing a building takes longer than making one out of scratch.
Because making one is just making one.
Repairing one means disassembling it, repairing the problem, then building it again.
Ah says the construction worker. How far over your time/money budget are you again? Fuckin LOLS bitch
@@rmilleriv1 ?
@@rmilleriv1 these dude is drunk ... just walk past him ... he talks nonsense stuff all the time :)
makes sense I'm in the construction field also
Except for the brick wall
"Yo bro, can you help me? My house is on fire."
"k"
*grabs hammer and hammers the house until the fire just magically disappears*
Reminds me of that scene in Hotrod, where he beats the piss out of the engine with a hammer, "working on it".
Life hacks
If you have a problem
Just hammet them till they disapper
Or the the police show up
Plot twist, the villagers are using Thor's hammer which is why they can extinguish the fire using a hammer
Maybe they have access to Fixit Felix Jr's hammer
Correction: Hammers the ground next to the house xdd
if I remember correctly:
villager kills animal = food
soldier kills animal = no food
Right
that shit halal if a soldier kills it boiiiiiiiiiiiiii
Only the villagers can slaughter it the halal way

We now have wheelbarrows.
Villagers: No thanks. We can carry 20 woods with out bare hands.
Wheelbarrows are strictly not to be taken outside the town centre at any rate
der Bridderlechkeet vun Wourecht
Not even taken out at a 10% faster rate?
They use wheelbarrows as motivation to work harder to avoid being replaced by technology.
Depends on how large the wood they're carrying is, and ropes too

-AoE2 Villager going to fight
I started on AOE4 and villagers are the most fearless and diehard of any of your units.
Not only will they casually keep building/working while being mauled by wolves they will pull out literal torches and pitchforks to attack an entire chinese artillery squad just to take the bombards down with them.
“An honorable duel it is!”
-AOE2 villager
"Oh dont worry little chap. This building have been on fire since the dark ages."
You'd lose more wood if you put out the fire rather than letting it burn
If you want to put the fire out, just hammer on the ground in front of the building.
That should be a line on a comedy skitch
Norte Dame should learn a lesson from it
I am sorry.....
Axemen never run out of axes.
Vadagar Neither does any ranged unit run out of ammunition.
CasualCactus Gaming But he does have a point. Axemen clearly only have one axe, and they throw it away. It looks to heavy to carry around more than one as well. Same with the Skirmisher. Other ranged units have arrows, that you at least could have 20-30 of with you before you need to resupply.
Morten Bakke And onagers only have a set amount of rocks/fireballs
+Morten Bakke I think they also carry an axe or two on their back.
+Morten Bakke Could be inflatable axes haha

Thats one wild towncenter

if you garrison 5 female villagers and 1 male villager in the tc, the tc will work a lot faster
As a lifelong carpenter, I can say that repairing a burnt out house does take longer than building new.
yeah, I'm no construction worker but I was pretty confused by that. Just about anything takes longer to repair than to build, for a multitude of obvious reasons such as having to work around what's already there to get to a broken part (fuck small cars)

You missed the part where villagers can repair a farm on flames with a hammer :D
That's so true. Also, the villager can kill animals and take the meat. however, if a soldier kills the animal its useless haba
That actually has some basis IRL: if you hit the wrong part of an animal, the ruptured organs there can actually poison the meat.
Actually, you could have mentioned that villagers can repair buildings that are on fire
This COULD work. The hammer pressing down on whatever the flame is consuming would snuff out the oxygen (similar to stomping on a fire).
No villagers can't repair fired farm by hammer . Only monk can repair the fired farm . Don't believe try it
How about units performing flawlessly until they die, regardless of their current HP?
+Jazz1992 this to me has been a myth for absolutely every game out there ;D
+YOUFAIL MON Moments like that are kinda the point of the video, so...
+Jazz1992 I think they don't perform perfectly until they die, but I might be wrong
+DrearyPlane8 You're kinda missing the point I think mate.
+Vladislavchooo in C&C Generals, wounded units are slower, both movement, and attack speed
I always provide my siege rams with comfortable beds
All this while the Battering Rams struggle to sleep on the battered beds you gave them
Random Villager: I'm hungry.
Me: WHAT? I GAVE YOU 50 FOODS!!!
Random villager: I have been working for 50 years.
Me: So?
Random villager: No, you didn’t give me 50 food, I was converted
*Troll face*
Villager: I have been farming for 3 hours the second I came out the town center, can I take a break or at least eat anything that I'm farming?
Me: Listen buddy, do you want to die? because the the goths are killing us right now. We are at war here
I think that a good way to redress this issue is a small maintenance cost for units - for example, a villager might consume 1 unit of food every 10 seconds or so. This would prompt players to focus more on economic growth and sustainability than waging war (just make some tweaks to diplomacy to make treaties for trade and commerce and you can convert this war game to a socio-economic simulation).
@@FrankCastle-tq9bz Considering 650 stone is enough to build an entire Castle. 50 is enough to survive a lifetime.
Unless 50 food implies 50 tons of food for lifetime of each villager or something. But then one would have to wonder how come this food never expires lol :p
It's what you don't hear in the convertion. Monk: "HEY! If you don't join me, I'm gonna beat you with this stick!" Enemy Unit: "You make a good point." *Changes color* Monk: "Protect me while I get the nerve to threat someone else."
especially when enemy unit is charging at him- "Argh im coming to kill you!!" - and then "oh we are friends now!"
The monk convinces units to join his side by waving his skirt showing them the real stick that may or may not end up in the enemys butthole
I'm seriously dying from laughter here lol!
"beat you with this stick" LOOOOOOOOOOOL
Monk gets charged by two dudes who served together, side by side, all through dark, feudal, and castle ages. They are brothers in arms, their families tied for eternity. Monk starts to hand-wavingly convince _exclusively one_ of the dudes while they have at him. Dude suddenly falls to his knees praying for forgiveness from the monk while his brother's like "dude, wtf? Help me with this douche will you?" Monk's eyes narrow to two slits while he commands his new minion to brutally murder his brother. The guy, without hesitation, bashes his brother's skull in. Anyone else think that mechanic sounds suspiciously like the work of George Lucas?
#21 - Villagers have a lifespan of 4 historical eras
And monks, born old, forever old
My number one question in terms of logic is: WHY are Teutonic KNIGHTS on FOOT?
Jedi knights are also on foot
Tired of waiting for its master to die, the horse tried tossing him off but of no avail.
Not all knights where on foot. The english prefered to fight on foot unlike the french wich prefered the cavalry charge. If you are refering to the uselessness of teutonic knights in game due to their extremely slow speed, then in my opinion mounted teutonic knights would make a good choice. Thir stat would have to be nerfed alot if they would have been moubnted. More expensive then a knight but somewhat stronger
more like; why dont they have a shield.
@@Nutellafuerst in the later middle ages shields were generally considered mostly useless, that is why you upgrade from shielded longswordmen to unshielded two-handed swordsmen
Takes berries from bush
The bush magicaly dissapears

At least not taking damaged by crossing it... Would be hilarious if been killed by bush berries
Takes berries from bush. Berries don't grow back.
~AoE Logic.
And all trees! I had it happen few times when whole map runs out of trees! Permanent deforestation.
Oh also- GOLD is on top of the surface... while gold mostly found underground.
I deforested the Black Forest map once.
I'm very proud of it. :3
Instead the bush disappears immideately.
one berry left in bush: big bush with loads of berries visible
pick the last berry: entire bush is gone
Look dude those villagers are a bit violent when picking. they sort of rip its roots out when picking. I mean they didn't go to university to learn how things grow :P
Another villager thing that has always bothered me:
They carry at all times: A fishing net, an axe, a bow, arrows, a knife, a pickaxe, and harvesting tools of various kinds. Even when upgraded, they can carry huge two person saws on top of this.
I mean, villagers are the most buff OP units in the game!
+Daniel Kemnitz Let's not forget they can build by smacking the ground xD
+rythmjc3 They are also using strong psychological tools when working. For instance, if you buy a wheelbarrow and simply tell the villagers "guys we now have a wheelbarrow!", then they will automatically start gathering more even without physically using any wheelbarrow whatsoever :D
+Daniel Kemnitz Hahaha yes very true xD
+Daniel Kemnitz and all of that in the pockets of their pants!
+Daniel Kemnitz Don't forget they carry an armful of gold weighing more than they do on top of it all ;p
Congratulations!
We now have double saws.
Villagers: No thanks. We'll stick with our axes.
But knowing that we have saws already makes us work faster.
I guess villagers are very conservative regarding their tools and methods. (You ever tried to convince a 1200-year-old lumberjack to adapt?) When handcarts and saws are invented they just work harder to keep up... which means they were just slacking in the Dark Age.
@@f.c.laukhard3623 emotional support in a nutshell
Guess the double-saws are used in the Town Centres, to saw off those villagers who slack off.
Repair takes longer than construction in real life.
(From a family of contractors)
@@Expialidoucious its the same dude, one place with damaged planks fundations, and your building is screwed already cuz of rest of the building weight, the fact that there are no materials like iron used in buildings like that, makes it even more possible to collapse, so yea repairing is much more time taking in medieval than in todays world, but that also depends on damage taken

about #24: in the ps2 version bombard towers can flat rams with two hits or so. dunno why the devs didn't carry it over to the pc version. maybe the bombard tower would be too OP then?
@@Daxter250 Could be the Bombard Towers are supposed to be OP in the PS2 version because the game would be too dull otherwise, I would think a console game would typically be designed to be higher-paced. I did not even know they had it for PS2.
@@romanlegionhare2262 the thing is actually that you could easily win in the ps2 version with towers only, 'cause the ps2 only supports a population count up to 75 per civilization, making towers much more valuable in fights.

+Ping Pink
good point, but they can somehow do it without walking into the building
(They're not monks, they're mages... They just don't want to be burned at the stake that took one damage 200 years ago)
Actually, if your building starts having ANY sort of debate with you, seeking a monk might be a good idea
yeah.... but what about the people in the smithy? they can be converted.
Even if the villager is carrying 1 meat, its like he/she is carrying half the animal
Or carrying berries. It still looks like he is carrying meat.

We have Aztec warriors, whose weapons are iron.
(Men-at-arms, longswordsmen, Two handed swordsmen, champions)
Quetzalcoatl confirmed.
@John Before the Americas were discovered (again)?
Not to mention how the Aztecs have full-on Arbalests while the Spanish just have plain old archers.
Wheel as technology was Not There.
No balista, no trade Cars, no Katapults........
It was an international UN agreement of the time which stated all civilisations should be allowed to use iron weapons
They got amor clad warriors wielding swords as their rank and file troops, but the elite troops run around naked using obsidian clubs
The AOE logic about building/repairing buildings does actually make sense. I work in construction and this is legit, i'll explain.
Lets make this simple and use drywall. Constructing one piece of drywall takes maybe 10 minutes at most. Yet if a person knocks a hole in the drywall, you need to cut a matching piece, make sure it fits snug, do the same steps as just adding a new piece but with much more precision. It does take less resources, but more time consuming.
As far as wooden construction, lets say you have a beam that is rotten. A builder needs to brace up the roof, cut the rotten piece, cut a matching piece, all of this is without a pre-made plan. most of the time when I build new buildings, I can zone out half of the shift, similar to riding a bike. But repairing requires a new behavior, planning, and precision.
I can imagine that AOE played this part also for balance issues, but the logic actually is legit - it takes longer to repair than to build from scratch. It sounds weird, but anybody that does construction would agree.
Edit: Obviously it also depends on the type of repair, but generally speaking

11:03 Easy. The ram is flipped 90º to a vertical stance, then it pounds the farm. Logically, that erodes the soil and makes it hard for a farm to ever recover.
One thing that most people overlook is how ships are just as agile as horses and shoot forwards
when a unit gets converted they instantly change from their uniform into a different colored one
which they happen to be carrying around
even the siege and the elephants
The monk secretly throws paint on them with such good accuracy that he hits exactly the right spots.
Roses are red,
Violets are blue.
W O L O L O O O,
Now roses are blue.
That's the standard rts logic of an opposing unit that gets converted to another player's side.
Ever heard of 'turncoats'? Historically not just a metaphor, troops actually turned their coats inside out to change their color.

Hitting a castle with a knife for long enough will set it on fire.
Yeah, friction ya know

The Knife Slashes the metal or stone, creating sparks, setting the building ablaze.
But remember. Today's iron is completely different to wrought iron which is a very raw and diluted (full of impurities) version of casted iron.
They fixed this in aoe 3 they throw flaming sticks ... but ruined the game completely orherwise
Why does it take wood to seed a field? Sure, you need wood for farm equipment, but not each time you reseed. It takes twice as much wood to plant a field of crops as it does to build a 5 person house.
3:04 how stupid we are. AoE2 was practicing social distancing 2 decades ago
I just like the idea that an empire can gather tonnes of stone, stockpile it someplace, and one guy can use it to build a castle ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THE DAMN WORLD.
They got credit card system for gold payment and pneumatic parcel chutes under ground for transporting wood, food and stone :P
but they probably don't have iron arrows or ballistics

I've always though of units in this game representing a small team of units. One villager is actually a team of 10, one sheep is actually a family of shepherds. This helps explain several of the weird quirks in the game.

no wait there.... omg yoir right there arent any donkeys anywhere how do they get them then? huh
they built them out of wood, just like seed they planted. basically they are "the creators". :'D
sounds legit
People had to hide them in mills to prevent missionaries from stealing/riding them.
Easy: you grab a horse, find a monk, say a couple of wololo's, and presto! Donkey.
Even WALLS have a faction.
hahahahhhahaha
undercat and a religion
Wait I just realized can you convert a wall? I never tried?
Monday's insanity no
Walls have a faction but you can't ever change their ideology
Where did all the dislikes come from?
Edit: oh you killed some deer. That exlains it.
That's actually a really good question. Where did all those dislikes come from? I mean, this is an old video from 4 years ago, and there are clear editing flubs, his humor isn't as refined, and the 30 second intro was long even by his own standards, but still...why so many? Are people just mad he didn't include their personal nitpick?
People of another colour disliked his video
@@derbridderlechkeetvunwoure2493 he needs to get his monks, research theology and go full wololo rush on theirs.
vegans, probably...
"Sheep can explore.
What is this?"
The moment he says "what is this" I couldn't help but to explode laughing hahahahaha
It takes longer to collect food from one sheep than it does to build a house
Monk converting an elephatn: Hey, I have peanuts!
Monk: join my side and you'll get the peanut!
Elephant : *joins the monk's side*
“Ye belongeth to the largest mammal specimen on Earth. Come join us and be more responsible regarding your life”
And monks can also convert self operated siege equipment
I think things that are missing are:
Why are some siege weapons driving and shooting without a anyone leading them?
Completely! On their own
Why can't you use ships as place to live in, like a house? Ancient Greece did it for hundreds of years especially during Greek/Persian war
And the worst one for me:
Why can't you use Wonder as a place to live in
But ffs some wonders are MASSIVE like the Franks, Britons, Celts, Teutonons and on and on and on
Those things are bigger than the cities I get it for Saracens, Berbers, Vietnamese and... perhaps... Slavs

That poor woman that got left behind..
She died alone, hopeless and with noone to hear her screams of agony as the knight drew his sword through her heart..
That is brutal. Man, those knights have no mercy.
Chivalry was dead even then.
The repair vs. built time part, it is logical and true. I work in construction and when repairing, you need to remove the damaged parts and then replace them with new ones. Meanwhile when you are building, you just install them without having to remove anything. It does take longer, and material cost remains the same, meaning that in the game it should still have a relatively higher cost to repair buildings, and it should take longer. And realistically people are faced with such decisions in every day modern life, should I fix my broken car or is it cheaper to buy a new one?
Unit987654321 higher repair costs could've just left the reason to repair useless? As to, why not rebuild than repair?
Back then they would just abandon buildings and build new ones.
You need space in your base, if you are limited by space, you need to repair building. That's why you need to repair, even if it takes longer time. In reality, if you want to replace building on same spot, you need to destroy building, in past time, it was much more problem then now (with explosives). So it's logical, they used repair even when it took longer time.
Wololo
My dad (a finish carpenter) often comments about how much more work it is to do renovations / repairs than to build new houses.
1) Spearmen lose to a villager 1v1 without armor or weapon upgrades, despite the villagers not using hunting bows to defend.
2) Teutonic knights don't ride horses.
3) Farms are harvested best when placed in the center of the city (the town center).
4) Cliffs don't need elevation gradient whatsoever.
5) Trebuchets have a longer range than cannons.
6) Cannonballs from cannon galleons travel as if they're in the Matrix.
7) Ships have less HP than paladins.
Spectre how about training foot infantry units when playing as the mongols when the real Mongol army only uses horse cavalry.. Or being able to use cavalry if playing as the aztecs, mayans and incas when the real life ones never used horses
You don't get a Stable when you play as the Native Americans.
PARTH Singh unless you enable the full tech tree as the aztecs, mayans and incas plus access to gunpowder.. And speaking of the aztecs, mayans and incas, you can train horse units if playing as them with the full tech tree yet their trade carts are still pulled by a person instead of a horse
kirk jason beltran Mongols had foot units they just didn't use them much but they had them, who do you. Think ran their trebuchets they used to launch dead bodies during sieges?
AZTECS MAYANS INCAS using cavalry and stable in rise of nations
For some reason, the second an animal dies the food starts gong bad, but when the food is placed in storage (in the dark ages) it stays fresh......... forever
-AOE logic at it's finest
Ice vaults were known even in the ancient era. And yes they kept food fresh for months like your freezer!
@@calmariusdescent3707 But what when you play as saracens, or turks ? In the middle of desert ? I think there is no ice m8
@@derpik18 Yes there is. Search for "nocturnal ice making". Nights are very cold there and radiative cooling works as well. Then they put the ice in the ice vault before dawn.
@@derpik18 That's what salt was for...
Never underestimate the refrigerators of the Town Center
The sheep one cracked me up, when the wolf just casually lets the sheep stroll by.
But wolves will instantly attack villagers and soldiers but the ignore the sheep
Plenty of wolves in sheep's kin, they say....
Makes the transporting a wolf, a sheep and cabbage dilemma far less taxing.

lady: "no i won't share a room with someone. I'd rather die!!"

also love it when the wolf gets out of the way to let the villager build at 6:48

Hahahaha... When you choose to be feminist... That's what happened... Hahaha
The thing that annoys me most is that siege weapons move, despite no one being there to move it.
It's even weirder when you consider that one siege weapon, the cannon, has someone pushing it.
I'm pretty sure there's at least 1 person in the ram who is controlling it
bit the mangonel and scorpion.. No idea...
Even weirder is you can convert a siege weapon to christianism
A trebuchet can pack and unpack and be on its way to take down a city. All by itself.
Stefon Joseph i just did that minutes ago
I spit my noodles when the fat king was running faster than the eagle warrior.
Then i literally choked(and hurt my throat lmao) when the ram was attacking a farm.
This is too funny i swear
I now want to see a sitcom where an elephant, mangonel, ram, scorpian, and a (fishing?) ship share a house.
I don't know why you can't walk through a Market. You can walk through a Town Center...
Iconoclasm_
you need a market pass to go in.
Villager: "Sheep! Go out and Explore!"
Sheep: "Baaaah!" *sheep heads out
10 minutes later.
Villager: "And? What did you find?" *pulls out map
Sheep: "Baaaah!"
Villager: "Uh huh...."
Sheep: "Baaaaaaah!"
Villager: "Mmh.. very interesting..."
Sheep: "Baah. Baah!"
Villager: "So there's a lake there? Good to know!"
Sheep: "Baaah...."
Villager: "An enemy Barracks? Nice work scout. Now we're prepared."
Cyrikyty An enemy Baaaa-racks
Villager should have placed a GoPro camera on the sheep's head
this seems correct, nothing is wrong here nope nothing at all
Villager: Now, time for a snack
Sheep: Baaaaah!!?
You herd the sheep and keep them from escaping? PAH!
In RUSSIA, we put stupid sheep to work! Saves time, and calories.
More on number 5.
When they convert it, in those seconds that takes the conversion, the converted unit instantly learns all your lenguage.
I laugh Everytime I have a samurai speaking saracen just because a monk yell at him while waving his staff angry
And forgets their native tongue.
"Oh look! A deer, shoot it!!!"
"Oh crap an enemy is here, but *don't* shoot him. Yeah that's just how we do things here."
Oh yeah, the monks.
They carry relics with one single hand! No wonder why they need to carry a stick in the other hand.
wait, I've figured it out
"Oh... you would not part an old man from his walking stick?"
All monks are Gandalfs
+Jack Opulski Wrong. All Gandalfs are monks.
Unit takes 99% damage- totally fine, still walking around with the best of them. Unit takes 100% damage- dies instantly.
lol and what would you do if you took a sword blow to your arm.... roll on the ground crying?
That, my son, is the tiny point between life and death
The part with the elephant always broke my immersion during the Barbarossa last mission (in which my whole strategy relied on converting as many elephants as I could). I always tried to picture that there was somebody riding it.
I researched writing in the Bronze Age, only to have to research cartography in the Feudal Age. Similarly, I could build stables and archery range in the Tool Age but not in the Dark Age...
a guy yelling wololo is enough for me to join his side
It’s so convincing you can’t simply resist it
you made my day, just by imagining it
The Chinese have bombard towers and cannon galleons but dont have access to bombard cannons, too hard to install wheels on a cannon
or Celts dont have STONE WALLS !?
+digimaks I think you are referring to the Goths. No they dont have stone walls, its not logically and more likely to be a balancing issue
Not a popular choice for the Chinese, more efficient to mount them on ships and fixed defenses.
Most certainly for balance since their M@A rush with Skirms for support or their late game infantry spam is a bit too OP
Pretty sure both branches of the Goths did make use of stone walls once they settled historically, mainly building upon former Roman settlements, and wooden fortifications prior to, and during, the Great Migration Era. (Could use some fact checking on that claim, of course.) In fact, the only civilisation in-game for whom walls don't make much historical sense are Huns as they were nomadic for the most part.
@@Volcano4981 I think that not only Huns, but also Mongols and Vikings have not build many stone fortifications (if any) in middle ages (Vikings built circle wooden fortresses). Maybe also some of the empires from The African Kingdoms dlc (which was not out when this video released). Khmers and Ethiopians for sure built stone defenses, but I am not so sure about the other african empires, as I know nothing about these.
One of the things that always annoyed me about castle building games is how ridiculously weak they make the walls and how overpowered they make catapults there have been seiges throughout history that lasted for months you don't just blast the wall a few times with a few rocks and then get in
Absolutely. Theodosian walls withstood for weeks against a shit ton of CANNONS.
there are a lot of logic holes in the game:
why aren't wolves attacking scouts.
why do mongols have a town center when they were a nomad tribe.
why do bowmen have infinite ammo?
why can you freely use a demolition ship? those things were set on fire and set in one direction in hopes that it hits a target in real time. and these ships were actually called fire ships.
wth are those aoe fire ships??? only one ship type comes into play and that was the dromon which was able to "spit" greek fire, that's it.
why does a galley only shoot one fucking arrow? xD
why don't we have galleys that can ram other ships?
ships don't give a damn about water depth. you can park a galley on the shoreline and move it back into the water without any problems.
war galleys clearly shoot a ballista, yet the projectile doesn't pierce through several units like the scorpion does.
feudal age galleys and dark age fishing ships can ship over deep water without any risks.
china used junks and not galleys during medieval times.
fish and other animals don't repopulate.
wood can't regrow.
why are those cannon balls so friggin' slow?
why can't i place bowmen on top of my walls? did they forget to implement stairs to it?
where do all the horses for my army come from? i don't recall every catching a horse ingame. same with camels and elephants.
weather and climate is always the same.
once you "produced" a soldier it doesn't need any food anymore (seems like 60 food is enough to survive hundreds of years).
speaking of hundreds of years: soldiers can live on forever as long as they don't get killed, same with the villagers.
why do i have to pay wood to reseed a farm? normally, if you plant stuff you will get seeds from ya plants once they are grown and ready to be harvested...
how is it possible to create a farm on the dessert? =O
why do aztecs, incas and mayas have crossbowmen?!
why can't knights trample over foot soldiers or attack on the move?
why do some soldier shave better armor than others even though they visibly lack said equipment?
japanese civ without yamabushi? what a wasted potential here.
you can't repair destroyed bridges in scenarios...why?
a single military unit won't flee when facing a large army. he still fights to the bitter end.
how come that my villagers always run to the town center or camp to store ressources but i can instantly train a soldier from a barrack that is on the other edge of the map without having a villager carrying the ressources to the barracks?
calm down bro ....... its just a game 😂😂
#1: Wolves honour the Scout's right tp explore
#2: Mongols wouldn't be provided a membership in United Civilisations Organisation(UCO) if they denied a town center
