>t. someone playing HoMM3 since last month
Third of those advices are wrong, another third is highly subjective. Most of it is useless without knowing how to play on your own, which renders the premise moot.

>It's another episode of longbow memes
I'm not sure you understand the issue at hand. Or even care to notice it. The range of longbow, the effective range of longbow, is pretty much equal with contemporary range of crossbows.
But sure, let's confuse tactics with weapon capacity. This longbow bullshit is one of the reason why it's so heavily pushed into games of all kind - stupid morons designing them thinks it's inherent to the weapon, rather than the effect of tactics (or lack of them) leading to the longbow meme being created in the first place.
There are dozens, if not hundreds of reasons why bows are inferior to just about any possible ranged weapon, and each time someone defending them goes "but muh English longbow", ignoring all those issues due to being too fucking dense to know about them.

The same way how Gandhi is a nuke-loving warmonger. I guess the term is "ascended bug". Originally due to some coding lapses, Phalax were pretty powerful in later stages of the game, against any sense or reason. Eventually it became a meme for spear-totting units to trash everything, with actual coding to support that.
Either way, Civ 3 is infamous for the tank vs. spearman duels always ending badly for the tank. You literally are more likely to pull some obsolete unit or infantry than try to handle spearmen with tanks.

You are one dense motherfucker. And somehow confusing regular large empires with ICS.
Do yourself a favour and learn what ICS even means in terms of playstyle. Pro-tip: it doesn't mean just setting up a large number of cities.
