    I swear from the beginning of the game. When Drango said Abbasid have only two landmarks. I was like why not pull out a Szalami mass scouts at the end and just destroy landmarks. I was rolling in my chair when I saw what he did at the end.

      @a5t3r1xd3 Před 2 lety +2

      You need to keep in mind that the second landmark get more HP every Age. So it is not that big of a difference in the Imperial compared to 4 landmarks.

      @hiimrezgaming9885 Před 2 lety +13

      @@a5t3r1xd3 It is tho. With 4 landmarks you can split them up throughout your base, making it hard to even find them all. With the abbasid, you know they are going to place the palace thing close to the first TC, since they dont want to waste villager time. That makes it insanely easy to snipe with fire lancers and such.

      @a5t3r1xd3 Před 2 lety +6

      @@hiimrezgaming9885 I play China a lot and I don't see the splitting as a big advantage. When you have only two landmarks you have only one point to defend. The firelancers are stuck and you can kill them. When you have to run after the firelancers from landmark to landmark you have less time in fight if you don't have 100% cavalry. It can happen that your infantery never catches up an you lose. And why should you have trouble finding the landmarks? They are marked on the minimap. With China you have your spotting landmark... Furthermore, at the TC you have your villagers. So you can react fast an repair the landmarks. You often don't even have this chance when your landmarks are split.

      @@a5t3r1xd3 I think it is a big disadvantage, but yea agree it's not necessarily a fatal one. You play with this in mind and prepare for the possibility. I think Don Artie might have had a better chance if he had invested in walls and then been able to concentrate the defense a bit more (and had like.. a couple mangonels). But obviously, he probably should have been pushing for Kasva's landmarks, instead of leaving large parts of the base unharrassed for so long. Don was melting them through them, to your point. Oh well.

      @Nil-js4bf Před 2 lety +6

      @@a5t3r1xd3 "You only have one point to defend". Well Kasva says, "I only have 1 point to attack".
      Splitting landmarks is a massive advantage. Super obvious in base trades where both player's armies are out of position to defend. This game is a prime example, Don was already on Kasva's side on the map killing landmarks before Kasva moved across the map and he still lost. Don knew he couldn't continue pushing into Kasva's base to kill the rest of the landmarks cause there's too many and who knows how far apart they are - they aren't necessarily on his minimap if he didn't raid that far into his walled base. Which is why he turned back. Not to mention how Chinese could potentially throw down another dynasty landmark in a corner if they're close to losing all their other landmarks. Never base race a Terran? Never base race the Chinese.

    Had a Game as Abbasid yesterday, against a Chinese.
    Feudal Age he tried to rush me with Spears and 3 Rams. At that point, because i had a Second Towncenter already, i also walled my Base with stone Walls, so i knew he was coming. I defeated him by burning down his Rams with Villagers and his Spears being caught between 2 towncenters. He got my main Towncenter tho.
    I still managed to Age up and rebuild my Towncenter in time. I then shifted my Focus on Men at Arms to counter his Spearmen, since he was still in Feudal. His next Push came, again with three Rams. I killed his Spearment with my MaA, burned his Rams with my Villagers again and pushed him out of my base, where more Spearmen waited already, building 3 Rams again.
    I had to fall back, continued to push MaA and made two catapults. At that point 5! Rams pushed my north wall and went for my other Landmark. Those rams had no protection tho and got burned down quickly, before they could destroy my Landmark. Then again, Spears and Five Rams from the south again. Spears got slaughtered by my MaA again, Rams got taken down, again. And then the Guy left the Game.
    It was probably the strangest Match i had so far. But it showed me the importance of walling up my Base.

    • @AgoristDryad

    I really like the landmark victory, but I think you should be able to "upgrade" another town center to a "capital" as well. Sometimes you may wanna just abandon your base, and start a new one.
    And that would allow Abbasid to have more than 2 landmarks as well.

      @@AndiSamiKnoll True, the nerf to the clocktower I can fully understand and I support that. Because until now siege workshops were completely useless for the Chinese. But some buffs to their early game would have been nice. The most obvious ones would be either buffs to Song dynasty or dynasty cost reductions in general, or some buffs to the officials. Maybe cost reduction, better controls, a free one in feudal age, making them faster, more of them.... Of course not all of this, but just one would have been nice. Instead they nerfed them throughout the whole game. I just don't get it.
