  • 🔶 Charlie (The Family Bovine), returns to his favourite game mode in Empire at War: Thrawn's Revenge. The Infinities gamemode has you & the AI start with one planet! It's a challenging, but really fun gamemode that tends to not get much attention!

    How did you like the editing style of this video? Too fast? Or perhaps you enjoyed only focusing on the post-planning and space battles? Let me know in the comments guys, I'm interested in how you like this style of campaign edits.

      I do like the space battles but is there any way you can move the face cam to the bottom right so we can see the ships you have

    • @spartanspaghetti2983
      @spartanspaghetti2983 Před 3 lety +1

      Can you put in time stamps for battles?

      The editing was nice. I got to see all of the fun bits, and you skipped the parts I normally skip for me.

    • @nicostrabac768
      @nicostrabac768 Před 3 lety +1

      I'm excited for this. If I can make a suggestion maybe put the cam in bottom right as top left obstructs the reinforcement pool

    Charlie, be sure to get some crimson command victories. They are a bit tanky and they can dish out some good fire. They are expensive though

    The only problem that I have with the vid is the camera position because it’s kind of blocking some stuff.

  • @ton5meire289
    @ton5meire289 Před 3 lety +24

    Love the video! May I recommend moving your camera to the bottom right? Seems like a lot of free space as opposed to sometimes obstructing fleets and the like. Keep up the great content!

    • @EcksToo

    I love Infinities. Having played through all of them I can tell you that the Corporate Sector Authority one is the most difficult as they have the worst overall roster of all the factions. I also do a lot of planet hopping, with my goal being to get close to enemy territory as quickly as possible and then just bounce around, destroying their fleets and bases, the goal being to prevent them from getting access to capital and dreadnought shipyards while I build up my economy and defenses before advancing one again

  • @mattparker9726
    @mattparker9726 Před 3 lety +3

    12:16 I would have immediately gone for the Bulwark's engines, you have enough bomber power to drastically slow those old CIS ships. In splitting the AI, there are two ways I have seen. First is to sacrifice a 'juicy' ship, like a carrier. The second is to make a threat appear on a flank or rear of the formation. You are also doing a LOT of extraneous clicking of units. Just draw a box. Use your special abilities, like when that heavy Victory didn't have shields, perfect time to use it. Use Victory SDs Arquintens and Victory 2s in wolfpacks of five or more ships, space them in as close as they will fit relative to each other, to create a mass of overwhelming firepower. IT's especially helpful with the Vic 2's power to weapons ability. A good, albeit difficult strat, is to rush the enemy faction homeworlds early game and crush them.

  • @louiswinterhoff334
    @louiswinterhoff334 Před 3 lety +1

    I've found that bringing ships in either corner of the map is effective at splitting larger fleets. If I'm facing a larger fleet I usually try to split them up and deal as much damage as possible without losing any of my own ships and then retreating, do that enough times and a large fleet is now either equal in strength of weaker than my own.

    • @Anaxibois
      @Anaxibois Před 3 lety

      It's a bit cheesy but the easiest way to start is to go the closest planet and retreat until you get a raid fleet, then let them fight the garrison and clean up.

    Hey guys! Corey sent a trailer for a new mod called Empire at War Expanded: Imperial Reign...we still don't know if it's really a mod because it was uploaded in April's Fool but, knowing Corey, i think it will be a serious project, (also, because of a new UI that was shown in the trailer)

  • @suntsutoriden
    @suntsutoriden Před 3 lety +1

    A slightly better way of baiting the ai in fleet battles:
    1) bring in a ship in one of the corners, or two of the corners. A small ship will do. Try and put the enemy fleet at angles that turn them away from your incoming reinforcements
    2) once the enemy fleet is turned away, bring in the big guns. Your ships will arrive hubs blazing into their side/rear, While they have to waste precious time turning to face your ships. This increases your firepower while decreasing theirs in the initial few seconds, which can massively swing a fleet engagement

  • @shadowulfhedinn8261

  • @gargillaape5292
    @gargillaape5292 Před 3 lety +1

    In order to get the ai to split off, save a few ships to bring in on the other side of the map, the ai will send some ships their way and some ships will continue to your original spawn ins, makes it easier to cut their ships off from each other
    Edit: also for the Garos space battle, I realised you didn’t really use the victory 1’s special ability, special abilities definitely can mean the life and death of a ship

      If we're asking that type of question, why did you watch the vid? Why did you waste time to make this comment? Do you have any valid constructive criticism other than just saying, "It's utter shit. Not really fun"?
      To answer your question though, the EcksToo crew probably plays TR so much (often, but not all the time) because it's a fav mod of theirs, and also probably because one of them is the lead dev of the mod itself.
      You're entitled to your opinion, but many/the majority of the viewers here more than likely really enjoy TR content, seeing as they're even here watching the video.
