I don't understand y tho. He seems like a pretty decent guy. And what's wrong with having a standing army? Especially when you have 3 neighbours and you're the Zulu?
@@DivyenduKashyap It's true that with more neighbors having a bigger army can make more sense, but what about your non-neighbors? If you build military that isn't strictly necessary for defense, don't take any cities to benefit from it, and aren't forcing every single other player in the game to fully keep up with you, you're just falling behind on growth or infrastructure or science or whatever you could have been doing besides getting a bigger army.
@@DivyenduKashyap Also, even if you want to take over a neighbors lands, especially as the Zulu, isn't it a better idea to just get ikandas up in all your cities and start pre-building spears so that you can rush finish a bunch of impis immediately after getting civil service? That way no one sees your army score creeping higher and higher so they can prepare easily? Heck, I'm pretty sure the same advice applies (depending on city placement/terrain of course) for defensive military as the zulu, that way you're paying less maintenance costs since your actual standing army is fairly small.
15:20 to skip the lobby after Cole and Cleftor dced
From 38:06 to the end it's another DC/reconnect, so you can just skip to part 3 unless you're dying to hear their conversation.
Just watched Game 23 before that one, the change in attitude toward Yoruus is a complete 180° that's pretty funny
