I hate to be a drag, but i want to see some pics of battles!!

Hey WTF...some fiend removed the sig you made!!!

[Chrispy]

My units gathering near the west edge of the map.


Forming a defensive position.


Falling back to regroup, etc. (I think it was the castle and its towers that were attacking.)


Destroying the towers near the western gate.


Getting up again.


Getting up and destroying any British defenses.


Getting quickly to the north-eastern gate. (I then scrapped the plan and took a shortcut lol.)


Damn right you tired of lickin' British boots lol.


An SS of an area lol.


There's ya exit ye' Franks!


The surviving units.


Whoopdeedoo!













And by the way, the start of the last level? I'm doing great. The Arbalests and Cannoneers are good in groups lol. I set up a defensive perimeter and I'm gonna sweep Burgundy's ass!

Chris

[Chrispy]

I think I'll do good on this last level lol.

Yeah front-liner I told you on MSN yesterday but I'm gonna say it again, building a base in Burgundy sucks lol. That's why I'm attacking Shrewsbury...

If I successfully attack Shrewsbury, and prepare to make a base there, I will still have to blow Burgundy's town centre; and therefore, when I blow it, I get cash! And then I build my base in Shrewsbury.

The thing is though, you know when the British attack? And they always go to Burgundy? If I build a base in Shrewsbury, they might never find me there...

Chris

[Grenademan]

Don't count on it. The AI always knows where you are. There is no hiding....well i dont hide anyway. I fight

[Chrispy]

Alas, crap.

I gotta build my base in that small Burgundy base lol. Doing good, but the ships kill me...

Chris

[Chrispy]

Well, I built my base in that small base in Burgundy, and I then realized I was next-door to the British turds...

We were seperated by a block of trees and a river going through... and when I looked on my map, the objective wasn't that far away, and in the AoE2 walkthrough, it said ''The British base is a joke if you go around it.''

So... I DID!

And those Bombard Towers seem awfully gay with the firing lol. They sometimes look like they're guided Imao.

















And you sussed this mission out on cheat codes eh?

Chris

[Grenademan]

Yes, but you went around. You didnt have to fight through the horde of Longbowmen like me. And are you trying to sound superior because you beat the final campaign mission? Try the other campaigns then we'll see who has the last laugh.

[Chrispy]

You're still more superior lol.

I used strategy and planned where I was going to build my base and believe it or not, I wasted all my time building up defenses and crap when I could've built a dock, get a transport ship, put my flag on it, and get to the other side!

I'm currently doing my skirmish called ''The Battle of the Mediterranean'' and fark I'm allied with the Vikings! I just built a Wonder too...

The AI are so sloppy with how they build and crap...

And in my opinion, in a Deathmatch game in AoE2, it's more harder for me as when I have so many resources, I tend to build heaps of buildings and units and it's hard to concentrate sometimes lol.

Chris

[Grenademan]

Just remember that the AI always get twice as much resources than you do. So in deathmatch...

My MSN appears to be being uber stupid, so I dont know when i will be able to log back in again.

[Chrispy]

I was up against the Koreans, Japenese, Britons, and the Turks... and I was the Franks, having the Mongols, Chinese, and Celts on my side lol.

And crap we got pwned! And in this current match I've only got the Chinese left on my side which is totally inactive! I think it's unfair lol... they get extra-terrestrial crap!



















Next match (if I lose... again!) will be a team island one... see how that goes... hehe...

Chris

[Grenademan]

I find team island maps lacking, as the AI run out of resources quickly, and they dont really launch ground invasions all too often. But hey, whatever floats your boat.

Thats some nasty ownage you're copping there. The only possible reason why your ally is inactive is probably because he's exhausted his resources. Give him some and he should start pumping out some units.

And for a real challenge, turn locked teams off. Player's diplomacy between one another changes freqeuntly. I had to turn on my own ally once as he betrayed me and allied with the enemy. That mongrel...

[Chrispy]

It was a DM game so resources were... bloody many lol.

And I had teams locked so that no-one could betray each other!
