"I need to switch out this necromancer from this mismash of units...." proceeds to take Merlin out of the army... - Arumba 23.06.15
De10re Yep, 'this guy' happens to be Merlin the awesome, annihilating armies with a single spell :P
De10re There was so much fail in this episode my face hurts from facepalming.
BIkaloss He is still pretty new at the game.
trace rutherfurd And recognizing beards, apparently.
That lightning spell was glorious Arumba. Merlin was clearly asserting his claim that he is the greatest sorcerer in the land with that display
He is for I am kar dachi the beloved I left my people to join the greatest sorcer Merlin
The terrain like, dislike, hate is based on each units race and not the army as a whole.
Treasure sits with red glow (Brigand Hideouts, Necromantic Circles, Winter Lairs, etc.) Spawn wandering monsters every couple of turns, so it can be useful to clear them. (Boneyards can be especially nasty, they start spawning Bone Dragons after a while)
Happiness bonuses to cities go up every 200 morale (i.e. at 200, 400, and 600) and are +15%, +30% and +50%. Happiness from terrain isn't a static boost per liked tile, but based on the fraction of total city tiles versus preferred terrain in the city - I don't recall the exact math, but the basic gist is that morale won't necessarily increase along with the city if the surrounding terrain isn't overwhelmingly your preferred type.
The better choice for Human Racial Governance 1 is almost always to go military. Throw Net is a moderately strong chance to completely immobilize a target for two turns - the target can't retaliate against attacks and every attack is an automatic flank, which is a major damage boost. Normally your irregular racial unit doesn't scale past the early game very well, but Civic Guard with Throw Net (and half upkeep cost from Volunteer!) can be useful the entire game. In comparison, most games don't see any settlers produced at all.
Terraform is... not very good. It's not actively bad or anything, but you almost always have something better to be spending mana on. Plus it takes up like four spots in your spellbook, which makes it really annoying because you'll have to switch pages all the time. :/
Your question on damage from 12:00 - it's spirit damage, blight is the blobby green as opposed to spirit's squarish yellow. They're the hardest to tell apart, fire/frost/shock are all pretty obvious from their icons.
orangelex44 As far as I can tell, the happiness granted for each liked tile is static, but the amount given is dependent on the size of the city. A small town will give a lot of happiness per liked tile, while the largest city only grants 2 happiness per liked tile. This makes it important to use terraforming as a city grows to retain the happiness bonus.
Split your armies up, the main army is fully capable of dealing with a lot of the armies that are in those nodes. All treasure places like tombs are worth it completely for you gain equipment that gives you bonuses. All so Phantasm warriors when I played this game were fantastic against any physical based damage dealing units especially melee troops.
liked / unliked terrain helps with crit chance or to avoid fumbling (missing your auto attacks), but it isn't such a huge deal as long as your empire happyness is good (which comes from the positive events you have, victories, etc.).
on which terrain you fight on is not dependant on the type of terrain your troops stand on if they attack an enemy but on which tile the attacked army is located. so you attacking a bandit camp from fertile land where the bandit might stand on volcanic land means you fight on volcanic land.
wisps, ravens, lost souls, etc. are almost purely meant for scouting! now lost souls in larger numbers can be dangerous for mostly physical based dmg dealers because of the 60% physical damage reduction and because the revive after certain turns of being killed.
one general advice is to focus on lower tier spells at the beginning. spells are randomly generated in your spellbook, so research is mostly random (thats why they added the seek inspiration spell which lets you reroll your research page). empire improvements are not random and are tiered correctly. so you unlocking the sorcerer aprentice means unlocking higher tiered class specific units.
you're making some decent decisions but are a) overly cautious with your armies and the battle you pick, most tier 1 enemies are too weak so if you attack with overwhelming forces they flee. now getting good karma might benefit you if you have the good alignment tech (or you wanna RP a good character), but other than that fighting is always better for getting exp for your leader, heroes and units.
b) you leave your city unprotected, while early on with enough vision you can stay relatively close and get back to the city in order to protect it. if you are too far away and some independant units come along they WILL attack your city and steal it. if you lose your throne city and your leader dies its game over for you!
This video posted while I was watching the first video...just in time for me to get less sleep.
Your leader always runs his army, but you should be able to have the necromancer and theocrat in the same army. The one on the far left runs the army. Wisps need to find independent towns and grab up loose gold. You really need a rouge or warlord next, to be a melee tank for all your ranged casters. Theocrats are really good though. They can heal, have good ranged damage, good spells and army buffers. Eventually they can give the army resurgence, where if a unit dies, it comes back to life if you win the battle.
Great game love it play more please
Arumba you want to get that wizard tower in a city you control. once you clear it it unlocks a builing which gives all units summoned in the domain of that city plus 1 rank and supercharge. A sorceror relies on its summons to the greatest degree. Be careful though mythical is the highest level of ruin you will need higher level units to take it out. Also magical structures affects ALL treasure sites even your gold mine and great farm.
There is no research or production overflow in this game. It is best to use resarch techs boosts to pop very cheap techs as they will be very inefficient later. The most important factor in choosing research is getting the closest possible candles to the amount required. This will make the research the most efficient possible. also the bane fire fromt he goblin did extra damage as it was flanking deamage becasue your guy was stunned. Still you should research your own apprentices asap. They get a free rank from a laboratory in a city and can heal your summons. All healing powers, but not spells, also heal per turn on the campaign map. Then you can unlock your phantasm warrior. it flloats like the wisp but is very tanky a great frontline unit especially with apprentice support.
I like this game, looking foward to series
make a ranged hero that has 4 or more wands with different attacks, get a blunderbuss or a long bow on him also from item forge, make a melee hero, always garrison your throne city and take care not to have Merlin killed and the capital gone in at the same time, get apprentices and other support units... you should do fine
I just got into age of wonders 3 and I'm glad I ran into your channel.
When leveling up heroes, go for about 70 health first with defense and melee/rangd strenght. Maybe a little resistance if its below 10. It makes them a lot sturdier. You can also focus on powerleveling them.
You also have another unit (other than the hatchling) that evolves: The cavs that you own has that ability as well (though I really didn't remember them having it before...).
I only noticed it because you were looking at them last video.
Adyen It will evolve into a Human Knight (Tier 3). A lot of stuff has changed since launch, I think this change was made with the free patch released alongside Golden Realms, along with a bunch of other changes to other racial units to make them feel more unique to their respective race.
i give it one or two more videos until arumba finds way to "optimize" thing
Matthew Hall Most of the people who play AoW3 are like Arumba so Triumph gets a lot of feedback and all kind of minmaxing for each race/class is already done:P
Matthew Hall The patching process for Eternal lords is over so the feedback won't help as much. Besides Triumph ran a multi-month open beta on steam to test eternal lords and all its patches with extensive interaction with its fans. If they make another expansion the open process might make Arumba very interested in participating.
This game is pretty cool. Keep 'em coming.
I can't wait for the next episode!
Loving the series !
Arumba you know that it said if merlin dies you lose at the start....right?
Soulcrusher669 Leaders respawn after 3 turns, if you have your capital city. You get a bunch of negativ modifiers until then though.
Soulcrusher669 Not completely true. Merlin will respawn in 3 turns as long as the Throne city still stands.
Didnt it say if "Your leader dies you lose"?
"Protect your leader and Throne city"
"If your Leader falls, then they will return after 3 turns at your Throne City. if you lose both your Leader and your Throne City, you will lose the scenario."
To be completely exact :)
ohhh thanks for clearing that up for me lol sry guys
...Fear me for am Merlin "Cowers in fear and screams like a Grunt out of Halo" RUN AWAY RUN AWAY! :P
Please play more of this arumba
you need to keep an army in your city!
because if you dont, enamy troops can just walk in and take over
"Fear me for I'm Merlin" - my sides xD
I like it!
his seems like a mix of heroes might and magic and civ
Keep playing this.
You could have your necromancer build his own army.
Please more of these Age of Wonders Series
Holy shit, at 7:30 into the video does anyone else see an olde Roman art style face? With the sparkly map dot even being the eye? :0
You should try powering through your research till you can summon eldritch horrors then spam them.
Hey guys, noob question here. I have built race buildings, but I can't produce my racial units from the ''produce units'' tab. Do I need to build other buildings as well?
Episode 2 and he forgot the number of episodes he's played for a bit.
Damn, that was some grade A bullshit timing of the planetary alignment. Completely wasted the scrolls you just picked up :(
You could lower the music volume,just a bit.
Can someone please explain how damage is calculated. How much damage would a 3-10 axe do?
This game looks awesome! Can I play as a Dragon army?
i mean, human dragon hybrids?.
whatever they are.
Someone call northern lion!
What happened to galactic civilizations 3?
arumba you dont need both armies to take out an encapment
arumba u aren't moving your wisp into stuff like the wizard tower and ancient ruins
This game seems a bit faceroll. Why do his armies outnumber the enemy ten-fold and why is there no retaliation from enemies ? I mean no enemies are encroaching on his land or trying to apply any pressure.
I read that the AI is pretty bad in this game and just sits and waits until the player snowballs out of control. Does that change on higher/max difficulty ?
It's epic tomb not epic tome isn't it?
Tome - book
Tomb - grave
Or is this just another word like solder that Arumba decided to pronounce wrong?
Please make more Age of Wonders 3 vids
"probable victory" yea sure okay game
-199 to 199 city happiness= no buff/de-buff
200-399 city happiness= 15% buff
400-599 city happiness= 30% buff
600+ happiness= 50% buff
wow this was posted at 1 my time
Arumba is more of king not a General
Taking out ur most powerful unit which is ur leader Merlin is not a good idea.. just create 3rd army from the full strength Merlin army n that mishmash army. Arumba dont be a noob please, even for a 1st time playthrough you should be familiar with strategy games.. gosh
DO IT necro town all spell caster city /play thought
Ah the Age of Wonders.... First one was the best, now they streamlined the races with this unnecessary class wankery....
Undead AND corporal? Doesn't sound as good as undead and sergeant.
I do believe the word is cor-POR-ee-ull.
third :P
first comment
Congrats, no one cares.
