Do Hausa have anything besides Fulani spam? I really wanted to like both the Africa civs but I found them to be pretty unfriendly to beginners. For advanced players only?
@AlaminMacharia5 ай бұрын
I play allot of Hausa, even though I'm still a beginner around 1100 ELO. With Hausa. You could spam Akan, a really good musket type unit with one area of effect and 3x multi against cav. They also shadow tech when you age up and have good 2 cards 15px upgrade in age 3. Build artillery and you can play Falc-Musk composition which we've come to love from our great sensei LionHeart.

If you want to learn Hausa I have a channel dedicated to Hausa strategies! For comps here are my takes: Fulani + Raider: Essentially your skirm cav. For rushing and early pressure Fulani raider should be your go to. Fulani counter all raider counters in age II. However beware of enemy heavy cavalry as raiders are trash vs other heavy cav. Fulani + Jav: Your skirm goon. Trades very effectively and javs have great melee attack vs heavy cav allowing them to body block making them some of the best skrim goon goons. However this comp severely lacks siege and adding cannons is awkward as you sacrifice your kitting ability. Also this comp is very micro intensive hence not very beginner friendly. Akan + Falcs: Your musk falc. Akans can be trained after sending gananci card age II. They are not good in small numbers but scale incredibly well in mass as they have aoe damage. Protect you falcs with the akan and your only threath is culverin. You can also add lifidi to snare. Jav + Falcs: Similar to the akan falcs comp but does not require the gananci setup. However I find this comp relies to heavily on the falcs as the Javs simply cant dish out much damage. I have a beginner video on how to execute the Akan falc FF, I think its a very good start if you want to get started with Hausa. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/gcljotGdkrGvmok.html

You can Akan but yeh mostly its fulani spam with javs and cav added. Go watch 3dJakob as he knows more about the civ than I do :)

hello there, which legion card from the US deck is the best? i quite like the magyar hussars but havent tried out the grenadiers. is every unit from a legion card buffed in comparison to their standard counterpart?
@lionheart90155 ай бұрын
Yes it is and once you have sent them you can remake the units at USA forts. Magyar huss are by far the best, then the Uhlans. The Grens are good but should not be sent before magyars.

I think the reason you don't see Hausa/ethiopians on ladder is because they're so hard to macro and play right. I have a ton of fun as them, but I'm really bad at them. I feel like I need a Phd in math and economics just to play them. Where if I just do something simple like an Ottoman FF into Sipahi and 1000 wood for 3 TC, it takes very little thought to do right

Isn't the tp based on a fixed rate of res/sec generally speaking? So they offer the same per tp regardless of map. Portugal ofc is great because it offers 5tp on one route
@lionheart90155 ай бұрын
I think there is an average yeh, but obviously some maps are way better due to how many tps there are.
@djnefrozhardstylepromotion35275 ай бұрын
Yes, it's always the same average, but depending on the map the first pass you get can get you a very high bonus or not, which is significantly impacting the first shipment time

How do you get 24 range on fulani? The card only gets them to 20.
@albanismaili82715 ай бұрын
i think since the last update they get more range with the age ups.
@3DJakob-hx1hp5 ай бұрын
If you go with fulani age up it ads a tech in the university that adds a long range attack with longer reload. Also allows them to chop wood. The card is rarely used though as not only do you need to age up with fulani but also the tech is extremely expensive at 1000 influence.
