      the single mangonel shot was excellent. but what changed the balance of power was his mangudai. they raided constantly (quick and with almost 100% accuracy) and they wiped out any seige the other dude brought. i've played mongols thousands of times. it's the mangy-dogs AKA mangudai.

      @zonda_r2 If you watch pro games they generally 'play to the meta', because scouting is good enough that they'll know what their opponent is up to. Most pro games I've seen w Franks, esp in tournaments, they play scouts into knights.

      @zonda_r2 That sound like a very nooby game tbh. No decent player would build 2 stables in the feudal age and not make cav. Too much of a waste. In the time it would have taken to build 2 stables the other player would would also likely have some military production and/or walls.

    Mongol Hussars are ridiculously good as a meat shield. 112hp for an 85 food trash unit is tremendous. Their downside, that they don't get the last Cav upgrade, is largely irrelevant in the face of so much extra health; they can take an entire extra hit from a Halberdier, something that armor doesn't afford. Plus, Mongols is terrifyingly fun; faster Rams feel so natural to use, Mangudai/CavArch are easy for a beginner learning to use control groups, the comp doesn't have a hard counter, and they have useable options like Camels or Steppe Lancers depending on the need for counters and availability of gold. A great 'first main' Civ.

    What do you think about about using stone walls instead of palisades right from the start? In my opinion in early feudal wood is more scarce/needed than stone and walling stone saves you some villager time later, as you don't need to add house-walls etc. Also more secure for remote locations.
    It seems to work quite well for me, but there might be some tradeoffs, ofc in castle age there will be some delay with castles etc.

    I never thought mixing champ' with Mangudais in post-imp cause never pay attention there were fully upgraded, hum.
    What do you think about cav archers in the game? They are almost never played in castle age (only Huns players really use them). I tried them several times as magyars or tatars and I really think they need a buff. IMO, the delay before the first shot make them painfull to micro. I think they should have the same as Mangudai to be more used. I don't think they will be overpowered because you can't mass them in feodal as archers and they need a lot of upgrades to start being anything else than a raiding pack.
    I'm curious to know what you think about this.
