Some quick tips:
Practice using your hotkeys in the scenario editor with buildings and units available in general play. You'll want to be able to select both one building of a set type with your hotkeys, and multiple of that type to sustain unit production.
Deactivate "Default aggressive unit stance" in [Options -> Game]
Look at Spirit of the Law's civilization overview videos on youtube. Some of them are outdated, but they do a good job of getting you familiar with the factions. There are 43, and in a few months, there'll be 45 in total.
Learn a few generic build orders: 21-pop archers, 19-pop scouts, 21-pop M@A, and maybe a 25+2 FC.
Practice small-walling, quickwalling, and just getting used to defending when you have only villagers somewhere.

Finally, you can also look at the "Art of War" modes, intended to get you familiar with the game's mechanics and give you a way to measure your progress.

>Practice using your hotkeys. You'll want to be able to select both one building of a set type with your hotkeys, and multiple of that type to sustain unit production.
Because you won't be able to capitalize on build order or wall quickly and responsively until you learn your hotkeys. In fact, rather than "21 pop archers build order" just start out by figuring out what unit you want to make and then make it. Then, when you're more used to the flow of the game, you can start learning how to optimize your opening and your strategies. Starting out having not touched the game and using your mouse to click buttons and being expected to learn specific timings and pop numbers is way too much at once. Get used to playing faster first, then you can learn the specifics.

It's an important part of learning eco management. It gives you a clear output to work towards, and underlines the importance of villager management so you aren't just aimlessly plopping them onto resources for the heck of it.

I'm not saying never learn build orders, I just think it's more important to learn how to play the game first before you commit to trying to match specific by-the-second timings of specific strategies. I believe simple lessons like "try to always have villagers producing" or "use hotkeys to speed up production of units" is a more valuable lesson than "by 10:32 game time you should have 3 villagers on gold and send one to build a house" for someone who has never played a match in their life. Eco balance and optimization can come after they've got past that initial hump of "I don't know what anything is, everything scares me, and I don't know how to do anything". Really, the order of importance for completely new players when it comes to getting comfortable with the game and finding success is
1) learn hotkeys so you don't have to waste time moving the mouse and finding each specific button, can keep track of idle eco, and can keep your unit production as high as resources allow
2) learn general unit match-ups so you can be more effective with what you do make
3) limit your town center idle time as much as possible by keeping villager production up
4) pick a unit you want to make at the start of the game then work towards making it

Build orders with specific timings and pop numbers can come later when they know enough about the basics of the game and are comfortable enough to start optimizing their strategies. You don't put a rookie driver in a F1 car and tell them to race a circuit as their first driving lesson.

>is a more valuable lesson than "by 10:32 game time you should have 3 villagers on gold and send one to build a house"
That's not it. A build order just shows an efficient way to allocate villagers and resources. I'm not saying to follow it religiously. This gives them something they can do while gaining experience in a traditional way, but I do see your argument. It makes sense.

There was a lot of factors.
AoE 2 was mostly improving over AoE 1 in every single regard. AoE 3 made many decisions which weren't improvements but took things in very different directions which wasn't received well by franchise fans. The more hollywood styled campaign with magic bullshit like fountain of youth turned away lots of people who were expecting campaign based solely on history like it was the case in previous games. The shipments/cards system was the killing blow to the multiplayer scene because it required grinding specific civs and players weren't at equal standings when they were getting matched with each other.
It's quite similar to how HoMM 3 vs HoMM 4 is if you're familiar with those.

I think my two main issues in RTS is that build order gets thrown out the window the moment I start panicking (ex. getting rushed) and I tunnel vision way too much when I micro and my macro just goes to shit.

William Wallace campaign is a stealth tutorial with very basics of the game and some hilariously outdated advice which works in single player but not online. Other campaigns you can do in any order, lots of them are fun, scenarios are very varied.
Art of War mode which was added in Definitive Edition is an advanced tutorial which should give you some basics for actual "meta" online play.

Yeah, don't worry too much about build orders. Just get more practice. As your muscle memory develops, you will be able to spare more attention to thinking about what to do. 43 civs are overwhelming, but stuff like "crossbows" or "knights" can be done with almost any civ and is pretty effective. If you find a civ you like, stick with it, practice until you know it well, then branch out to others.

One thing which can be surprising depending on what other RTS you played, AoE 2 doesn't really have hard counters. Camels beat knights one one one but knights can win if they have better upgrades or even small numerical advantage. Mangonels are supposed to counter crossbows but with micro xbows can turn it around. Etc. Often sticking with your upgraded unit and massing it further is more successful than immediately tech switching to counters all the time.

That was Moona who said that. That was in reference to the fact that she hasn't played the game in over a year, but didn't bother to practice up to the match. And in the end she didn't even know how to click on the idle worker button.

Kiara was the only one who knew how to make all idle workers work

I refuse to play 2 over 3 because the pace of 2, especially siege, kind of infuriates me. Lord knows how much more reliving it is when all your artillery (except Gatling Guns, Organ Guns, Chinese Flamethrowers, and Tanks) are reasonably efficient at taking down buildings.

3 has gotten so much better with the addition of new civs, fleshing out decks, and what not. The only trash faction right now is Japanese, but six months ago they were top dogs because of stupid hero tricks that understandably got nerfed.

I also love shipments, batch training, asymmetry, and the gunpowder warfare aspect. There's a reason I'm an Americans main, they seriously emphasize the hallmarks of AoE3 more than all the other civs do--no melee infantry (unless you wanna pay out the nose in Exploration Age for the ability to pop a squad of really efficient Consulate Pikemen every 3 minutes), extreme emphasis on sensible deck construction, and strong native or mercenary play.

For AoE2 enjoyers, you still have Aztecs and Inca who normally have no gunpowder. Or Maltese if you like tower and keep-focused strategies. Or British who can do well with Longbow+Walls.

Review of the support players.
Kronii: It wasn't actually her fault she built the Wonder. She did ask Moona for advice "should I build the wonder or not".
Moona doesn't understand the overall picture and just says "sure, that's really good" So this miscommunication lost them the game. But I don't think it was Krony's fault.

Anya: She was kind of... just there. Never build any military. She was just there to soak up damage and buying time for her team mate to build elephants. In this aspect she isn't really better than Reina or Kronii. She didn't even build a military until Fauna had already won the game.

Reine: She appears to be the best support player in my opinion because she always assisted Kiara when they where on the attack. This makes her better than Anya, but she might not have been better than Kronii, ut's hard to tell because Kronii got gangraped early.

No more need to unlock cards in Definitive Edition. This actually makes civs like Haudenosaunee fucking usable because you'd no longer have to grind for things like European mercenaries or Canadian Dragoons had those been available in Legacy (they're not but now the Haudenosaunee have it). Italians would have been dead in the water in Legacy if you had to grind for Broken Lance Company.

There's only two truly unwinnable civ matchups in the game right now AFAIK and that's:
1) Ottomans vs. United States (fairly common at the moment as both civs are strong, but USA has no answer for Cavalry Archer + Abus now matter how much stronger their late-game economy is. At least at lower ELO Azap + Falconet can be faced by monocomping US Marines.)
2) Lakota vs. Mexicans (the all-cavalry civ versus the civ with perhaps a dozen anti-cav options in Age II.)

Review of the main players.
Kiara: She did her prep work, made a livestream the day before where she made a lot of mistakes but learned from them. The only player who knows how to detect idle workers. The best player.

Moona: Way out of the loop, it's been over a year since she played against some noobs who never played before. Gave Kronii some fatal advice without understanding Kronii had no military.

Fauna: Her prepwork consisted of watching some other youtuber dominating with elephants, so she decided to do that too.

I saw that game yesterday from Moon's point of view.

You can tell Moona has the explorer's instinct, she is good at scouting, and every time she found a gold mind or stone mine, she would set a villaager to harvest from it, and later build a watch tower at it. And eventually use castles as mega watch towers.

I bet you Kiara studied that video and that is the real reason why Kiara build all of these castles in this game.

Unfortunately for Moona this map they played wasn't large enough to benefit her explorer's spirit. Plus they were all walled in, which is another factor that made it so she isn't playing like she used to do.

I love big RTS games, skill gap is not nearly as important in FFA scenarios (or multi-team which is basically team FFA) and you can get all kinds of weird, unpredictable outcomes. That said the girls failed to do one mega important thing when it comes to FFA - which is talk to each other !!!

Vikings are performing better on land than they are on water. They are one of the top 3 on Arabia but aren't top 10 in either Norther Isles or Migration (the two water maps in rotation).

Reine is calling for Kiara's help "Fauna is coming", Kiara's reaction? "well, Wawa's coming" but she didn't even look at that battlefield. Kiara kept underestimating her opponents and handwaving all of Reine's worries.
Or a situation earlier, Reine is losing a castle and army, calling to Kiara for help but what does Kiara do? 17:57 "maybe it's just her scout. like, one". Girl, you can just look over and see you're wrong. You don't have to gaslight your partner into believing they can't see what's on screen.

Proportion matters.
The warship discount would mean something if you sustained production, but it's essentially a small lead unless you commit heavily to water, and that's how you get land rushed.
Moreover, Moona's not sustaining production for anything.
The Vikings have always been best as a land civ, having easily one of the best kits for land play and the best land eco bonus in the game, which harmonizes well with Moona's willingness to send villagers to long-distance wood, stone, and gold.
The bigger issue was no one telling Kronii what she should be doing at any point.

It's actually extra resources for Fish, which Moona is expert at taking full advantage of.
But you never watched her AoE collab from 1 year ago, so you wouldn't know.
Exploration and taking advantage of resources found during explorations is Moona's main strength.

If you pay attention, you'll notice that instead of randomising the map, Moona had Coastal preselected. Of course, not intentionally, but this was the thing Kiara brought attention to: the map isn't random, change the setting. That she later recommended adding Arena and Black Forest to the map pool is a separate matter.

When you start a custom lobby it starts in random map mode which defaults to coastal as the first map selected. "random map" means it's not king of the hill, or regicide, or empire wars,or any other special game mode.

Yes, anon. I believe Kiara watched a year-old VOD of Moona playing to determine she's able to expand to the map (in a game where the worst player floated ~5000 resources and played dead), then explicitly...suggested two of the game's most popular maps to Moona, who chose them and then added Majapahit because she's Indonesian.

AoE3 is a bit less repetitive, since you could theoretically play the exact same civ three different ways before even breaking out another deck.

Japanese are the worst civ at the moment but I have one deck for them from last year that still kinda holds up--the way it's set up allows you to either rush with Ashigaru Musketeers, set up for late-game with an Ashigaru + Flaming Arrow (light artillery that beats infantry) combination, or boom early with greatly increased increased experience generation.

The only civs really constrained by a build order are United States (which I main), Germany (who has some hyper-specific civ bonuses), and Portuguese (who HAVE to sit in base, wall, and make units reactively until they hit Castle Age)

Anon, just admit you've never played this game before. Britons love Arabia. Britons absolutely love open maps because they get a dark age food bonus, faster ARs, and extremely cheap extra TCs for midgame expansion.
Persians are notorious for their drush potential, most of all. A bit of a one-trick pony, but they don't have trouble playing open, especially with durable TCs.

They don't. They have a perfectly viable roster outside of that. It's only in late imp when they hone in on range alone, and that's not a failing of the civ. That's just what their endgame looks like. If you wanted something else, you wouldn't be playing Britons.
>Britons have a 47% win rate on arabia, ranked 33 out of 43 civs, so maybe YOU should play the game
"no u". Cute.
Their winrate above 1200+ (which is when people actually know how to play the game) is 48.28, which is extremely average. Britons are highly specialized as a civ. If there's something they're good against, they're really good. If there's something they struggle with, they really struggle. They fuck up civs who use bespoke ranged tools to answer archer masses, like Bengalis (Elephant Archers) and Celts (Woad Raiders/Siege), but lose hard to dedicated cavalry civs because they just ignore the Britons' main advantage.
Even with this being the case, they manage to be just short of 50% in a game where cavalry civs are generally popular.

It makes for good viewing content, but has very poor gameplay potential because of mangrove terrain's strategy implications.
And "benefiting civilizations" really doesn't mean anything when someone is hitting imperial and trying to drop a wonder on an infinite-resource economy before meeting even the faintest resistance, but you have civs like the Goths, Cumans, Aztecs, and Bohemians who would be utterly shite on that map, so no.

A few reasons:

Any map where demos counter scout rushes, or where paladins counter fishing eco, cannot be considered "normal".
The Marshall Islands strategy isn't supposed to be the closest thing to an answer to the chaotic hell of stone on water.

And second of all, why he's trying Moona vs Kiara? that's pretty much over since 2 years ago and both are doing projects together as we speak. Kiara's antis are truly the most pathetic fags in this board, no wonder even chinks didn't bother with eggs.

At first it was just a commentary about how petty Kiara was. It only escalated because you astarted to defend her rotten behaviour.

Nope, she didn't even bother to check Reina's situation. We literally know this because we can see Kiara's viewport.

Nope, Reina was dismissed.

You're misinterpretting that video, it's jumping around in time and in multiple point of views.
Kiara only intervened when Reina was already slaughtered. She used her as padding against Fauna.

>> No.60453633

It's not interpretation because Kiara's stream is available. And we can see she never once scrolled her viewport to check up on what Reine was crying about.

And so because she never cared about tag teaming, the Fauna / Anya team picked them off one after another.

It's not exactly that. I would definitely want sex with Kirara very badly, but that doesn't mean she can't be called out on her stupid things. The other Anon disagrees fundamentally on that question.

In fact some of the criticism of Kiara can only be leveraged you you watched the stream exactly from her point of view.
If you watched any of the other 5, then you would have never known.
