Those #5 losses happen long before they happen. If you've got trebs/seige and archers hanging out at the enemy base, and don't have some kind of meat shield, my recommendation is to not take a breather until you've got something to block with, even if it's just some pikes or light cav lacking upgrades, anything. Cuz they are preparing a response, and you have to anticipate that. I don't know how many expensive seige rushes I've seen completely lost to trash because there just wasnt anything there to block for them.

I managed to move my eco, create some archers and pushed his units back. Then I went to Caste age, however he made more MAA so I had to split my crossbows army to deal with his infantry again and therefore my first counterattack was weaker... It also took me to much time to take out these towers in my base (I found out the scouts are not good for this job). I made knights, send another counter attack, but he had a castle and small walls around his TC and farms. I managed to get inside but there he had pikes (I didn't know), so it was prostě naprd. I could try to fight more, however I still needed to recover and he was in much better position even with smaller eco. So I resigned :) But it was a good game, because I as a noob wasn't totally destroyed in 10 minutes. The oponent had a fun at least. :D

When I was really careful about having a clean install, no firewall and antivirus meddling, the bug didn't occur for a long time so I though I was safe... and then bam, it turns out that occasionally the game detects my video card driver as a threat and just closes the connection or outright crashes. And I'm not the only one... and other games run fine... I hope there will be a fix soon, else I might just go on and never play a game again, just watch others play...

@@krystofcisar469 it depends on micro obviously, since mameluke have some range, but the stats really aren't in mamelukes favor, even before you factor in cost. First off HC are slightly faster, so Ms can't hit and run forever. HC has 10 more HP (10 less after zealotry for the Ms, but that's also expensive tech), there's no base armor for any of the units, so that's even there. Elite mameluke does only it's 14 dmg (10 base + bs upgrades), while HC does 7 base + 4 bs upgrades + 9 bonus vs camel class (bonus dmg vs its own class, I know kinda weird), so 20 dmg once they catch up. so yeah, as always, it depends, but the mameluke player has to be super on point to not let the HC get close.
