 Hello everybody and welcome to a video that is um is definitely different um we are playing uh Age of Empires 2. If you remember a while ago I I made a video where I commented over some age of mythology footage because I was quite into that at the time and this channel has always been anything that I enjoy we make a video on it so this is however a little bit different because I'm going to be playing this live in the last one I was sort of commenting over what thoughts were going on in my head while I was sort of live viewing the things I am an ELO a low ELO legend I think I'm not very good if anyone knows T90 there you go you got a shout out you're welcome I'll be watching a lot of his like ELO legends and that's the main reason why I'm I'm like playing this right now is uh is that I I'm not very good I lose quite a lot of matches I know a little about a bit a little bit about build orders um and a few hotkeys I know Q and W but I don't have a dedicated like blacksmith hotkey or any this hardcore stuff that people do there's gonna be a lot of my audience like what is he even talking about so while you're playing this it's a real-time strategy game like halo wars age of mythology anything like that some of you guys might know this game like I'm excited I'm excited I'm super nervous oh oh vikings interesting okay so we've got the cues so we're gonna set our scout to just do a quick perimeter check we've got our uh okay that's good we're gonna move the cows into the center oh we got dear we've got a oh what are you doing we've got build orders there you go okay so we've got a bore our boys on the left um oh we've got a berry bush that's good that's good we're gonna we're gonna say good luck have fun because you know what we're nice like that second boys over that yeah maybe so basically all I know I've watched I am spirit of the law I'm watching for a very long time um oh same to you all thanks man okay uh and then once uh okay so that's six so we got six on there so next we really need to find out wood I'm assuming oh we got some sheep that's okay uh so I'm just gonna schedule those I don't know where oh look at that almost almost uh so I'm just gonna drop that off and I need to find a good source of wood really I mean this is all right it's not the best so you know I'll send it there for now that's something there for now that'll do so once I've got that I will send my scout on all those scouts we're all good we're looking good guys I'm losing apparently I'm losing the eco game there we go okay so the the beginning of this game is basically just to at least what I find is just to keep the villager production going whether I have to sort of micromanage and do like have one of my villagers drop off meet manually just to keep that going that's that that's the important part okay I'll set him off to just manually do now I'm worried I'm worried because I've won two games in a row which means that uh oh I've got an idle villager because I set him off to the lumber ah you fool okay so we got four now so we're gonna send the rest off to the berries um just need to weigh a little bit because we don't have any food so we're gonna have to have blue then there we go got another one that's how you do it and I don't know like this is a lot that I'm learning a lot I'm learning a lot I was I was up to like two o'clock last night playing this game I was like I must get a win I did eventually get one just took a while oh okay there we go another one off uh I'm gonna have somebody lure a boar now oh that was a sheep oh also uh tactic is not to kill multiple animals at once but I don't care I'll cut the straggler trees if it means I win okay we're low on houses should have seen that coming so that is not a perfect boar uh lure unfortunately that's a bit of a shame we got a lot of running meat we also now do not have villagers being produced because I forgot about the houses also got an idle villager and we got two idle oh there you go cut down that and there we go okay so the problem with the boar is the villagers take a while to drop off their meat so you have to kind of micromanage them whoa I've never played this one before there's so much gold in the middle okay so you need to control that middle like right fair enough okay so I'm just gonna yeah that there's his scout okay I'm just gonna explore this area there we go keep going now I don't have a particular number I go to before I uh research uh what do we call it uh feudal age uh probably need to lure that next ball now there we go keep that villager production just going so we've got two more go and shoot it there you go okay and then these guys can just yeah get through perfect just don't let her die because we don't have lume yet there you go that'll do very well done okay so now we need that next house or else I don't know we might be we might be okay we might be okay I still haven't found them geez yeah I know I know yeah I didn't make that house quick enough unfortunately what you can do is just once you make that house send your villagers off like queue them but I'm not good not good enough yet okay so at this point we're doing good I think he's oh no I'm winning oh wait was I always blue okay oh well we found him we've found him he's got a lot always hunting his deer he's oh interesting interesting so he could yeah he's trying to snipe me nice this guy knows what he's doing okay he's on berries he's on berries he's probably gonna send his scout now to try and finish me I think so with that in mind I might just like try and run away that's probably what you'll do oh god uh probably just go to feudal yeah we're okay that'll do so I am the francs which means that I gather from berries 15% quicker um I don't know what the bike bike is mainly I think a um uh what do you call it a um um uh like a boat save like uh oh god we've got people who are just doing nothing great uh so what I'm gonna do here is just send a couple of these guys on to wood do we have it oh we have another sheep we have another sheep oh we have two sheep brilliant okay you can go get those guys right so while we're aging up this is worth I like I need to see what he's gonna go for here that was clever that he put his um his uh duty dudes in the town center his villagers I was very clever of him um like down where I am I think I'm like 600 yellow so I'm basically I'm as if I win a loop win one lose one win one lose one win one lose one basically that that's the strap that I'm going for uh oops I put the wrong thing there yeah forget about that okay so we kind of want to make because we've got quite a fair bit of wood here yeah I'm just I'm just gonna try to wall this off the best I can okay so we've aged up he hasn't aged up yet so that's okay but as Frank's we get the free farmer upgrade so I I need to get on to this as soon as possible really um also not queuing any villagers which should have been doing um right there you go he's aged up now he's aged up so it'd be interesting to see what how like if he's being aggressive or what there's a load of wolves in the middle like jeez I think I'm gonna hide my scout for a bit and I just want to see what he's gonna go for so we're getting the barracks there um there's I guess we could farm near here there's four villagers idle Jesus do something okay we've got yeah these are all idle now we can send him off to do that yeah he's scouting me now he knows I'm in feudal he needs to see what I'm doing I don't have loom so he might try to pick off a villager here um I've got two villagers here that's okay though uh oh he just so runs by runs by okay he's scouted me though he's scouted me he's probably gonna run to my scout so I need to get him out the way because if he sees my scout he will go for him he will go for my scout a hundred percent um I'm expecting that scout to die so we've got two idle villagers again baby what are you doing there we go there we go that's what we're getting these trees we're making a little bit of a defensive line ah this is where I should have really gone for let's see what he's doing shall we let's see we're probably gonna lose a scout in a second anyway but hey that's what it's all about now we've got a lot of wood which is good because I kind of want to just see if I can progress a little bit here uh with my buildings oh he's he's getting walls he's walling okay interesting oh wow okay he's he's really walling wow oh he's using some house yep he's doing a similar thing that I'm doing okay I'm just gonna follow this wall uh that's a blacksmith he's starting to build as well this is this kind of works in my favor I feel because now I've got map control if I want to uh I just want to see yeah he's pretty much got all of this okay I'm just gonna just gonna go off uh make a market I don't know like that I need to keep those villages queued man okay okay so with that in mind let's uh I want to go for horses I want to go for knights as frank's I think that's the best I could go for I think so I'm gonna also get some uh why am I doing this I'm not using hotkeys you fool um yeah we'll do that those oh they're all gonna go on gold so that's good actually we'll keep this wood production line going uh I guess we could do like a line like that we got loom now so we don't need to worry too much food's gonna be the issue though I feel uh okay we'll just oh no don't get a trade card this is what I'm doing I don't have hotkeys uh whoa okay guys you need to you need to go over here yeah everyone everyone go over there this is gonna cost me a little bit in the resource department because nobody's getting wood for a bit for a hot second um see what he does like what's the worst what's the worst case scenario he could go for just like a rush with militia or something oh well you go there and then you once we get a little bit more there we go keep going all right we got the gold on the flow uh okay you don't have anything go over here if I can I'd love to make another stable so now we're just I want to get to castle because I want these knights so I need 175 wood I want another stable so we'll build that there uh sheep production of the village is up let's see if I can is there any way is he completely walled him so he's walled himself in completely fair enough fair enough that's what he wants to do that's what he wants to do uh so now I'm just waiting for 800 food and then we go to car this is like because he you know I don't know man I don't know I don't know I'm very vulnerable at this point um I'm gonna send my scout over this way because there's no way you can get you could get around that way actually oh I'm gonna get some uh blacksmith upgrades no I can't okay so we're going to castle now we're gonna castle once we get this tell you what I will do is I will just house off this bit I haven't got small trees new mistake I know okay well you can go off and get oh I don't know you've got fire okay dump the wood and then go and make a uh a farm uh ha ha you can't get out now suck it I'll keep my other uh my other one oh I could kill him here just kill him just get him yeah boy got him okay that's good okay so we've blocked off that way um I now just want my upgrades for my horsies and when I actually do have enough resources which I do uh and because knights cost a lot of golden food I'm gonna send these three off there and then I'm also going to make another stable just to preemptively pump out these knights because that's what I want to get quick there and then I just if I can I maybe get another TC the stone there like I could get a forward castle if I wanted to that might be a decent idea uh tell you what I'll also just make like a bunch of houses just like going around and then as soon as we age up here I can start going for knights I just need to remember to upgrade my lumberjacks in my mine camp it's gonna take a quick dent into my economy uh look at husbandry as well so a 10 percent faster so we're gonna we should be good with raids uh I have no have no food for villagers brilliant that tells me I need more food so we got these two once they're dropped off and one two very good uh okay and then it is now just a race for knights race for knights I have a lot of gold and I'm getting more food production set a waypoint there are they evened out do they even out when I do this they do oh nice okay that's that's that's good to know so we do need the wood we also do need the food but it's okay now we have a little bit of attack a little bit of defense uh let's go with these three knights uh let's have a look around this way now he's in castle age now he's in castle age um so we just want to keep on going back here before he gets anything we can easy destroy this palisade wall now there's nothing here from what I can see he's making a lot of archers oh he's made houses but this way is empty if we can just get in and raid his economy would be pretty good right he's got archers perfect okay yeah he has a few spearmen that's fine that's fine okay okay yes right he's gonna have to pump into uh friggin what do we call it now he's gonna have to pump into uh yeah we'll get more attack upgrades oh oh what's he doing what's he doing okay we can do a cool pencil movement here so we're inside so we just want to raid his economy a little bit here no there we go right we stopped his economy oh god oh god yeah so he's got fightman oh no oh no this ain't so good okay this guy's good this guy's really good okay okay I need to change my plan I need to change my plan okay uh we need archers or do we we should we can just get a load of spearmen I guess um so some of the dudes that are over here are gonna have to make a barracks oh he's good he's good he got he saw me getting knights and he went for the um he went for the pipes and fully upgraded they said oh wait what the wolves attack me knights because I'm not scouts burgers okay so we might want to age up as well so we'll just grab some of these make a monastery and then make a university have somebody else make that with them very good okay we'll just attack this wall too just keep on moving about oh god dude who's not doing anything oh hello the wolves are attacking there comes a pike oh hello he's got wood is out here I'll take that I'll take that I'll take a couple of those oh nice you made a tc out here okay that's interesting um wait wait why am I not making this make that first uh I'll grab a villager uh where do I want to make a tc definitely need to make another one but I'm a bit worried about making it outside in the open um so I'm thinking I might just might just make one here it's not the most advantageous place but I don't know man I don't know I'm not feeling good about this game so far this guy knows what he's doing he's better than it than me that's for sure a forward castle would be good uh I just need more stone need more stone more villies but he does have uh that tc that's all the way out here I wonder what he's getting so we should probably have a look around and see if we can just snipe some more right dudes oh god I'm not feeling good about this I'm feeling the pressure feeling the pressure and that's part of it part of it is just like can you deal with the pressure and I said he says probably not oh oh he's got his pikey's he's got his pike boys okay where's me monk can you pick up that probably not okay here we go here we go there we go I'm not getting any villagers as well which is also bad um gold is okay we've got enough for a castle now um we got another monk got another monk did he just slip through there I think he slipped through there okay well that's the case can these guys slip through yeah they can can we make oh we can make a castle up here we can make a castle up here this is this is a risky strat risky strat don't know what he's got don't know what he's got uh might as well just go for the horse defense uh archers would be great but if I can get this castle up I don't need to worry oh what are you doing help with the thing because we want trebs we want trebs and then we want a lot of just stuff you're also doing nothing do I have a waypoint set up there or something oh he doesn't expect it doesn't expect it coming from the other side though didn't expect it coming from the other side the pizza maneuver yes care for the sake of like a couple of nights completely destroyed his economy he rang the bell completely done and done oh that was good I enjoyed that okay okay um can we not get anything now we don't have enough gold I'm gonna make some uh there we go he's having it he's having a scout to see what I've got now and he knows I have this I need to get to the next age though I need I need the gold I need that gold okay you're on gold now so I don't know throwing axemen are very good but I'm gonna I'm gonna give him a shot I don't know okay so there's nothing here there doesn't seem to be anything here just pretty pretty pretty good there is some stone over here it doesn't seem to be specking into cavalry it's just all infantry and archers so that's interesting does he upgrade a palisade no he hasn't he hasn't okay right okay he should he should start to be coming over now right yep and he comes oh he's an imperial he's imperial and he's got a bunch of uh what do we call it uh I need to get some siege I need to get some ornages to take out all of those uh all those pikemen uh to keep getting the wood uh can we age up no we still need the gold uh probably just gonna sell some wood and that would give me the gold there we go it's got a micromanager so a little bit right send some scouts over there so it's it's not that it's not rams oh hello he's got a castle he's got a castle interesting interesting okay well he's done better he's he's he's claimed the gold and he's probably gonna start getting trebuchets now all right I'm aging up uh two yeah that's fine start getting over there build a couple of houses just to block that off I have not been okay that's good oh he knows he knows very well played very well played I'm gonna try and do like a little pin some maneuver here get around him yep there we go oh he left a few he left a few well done well done well done well done okay so I've got my I've got my manganelles oh god oh oops we got about those whoopsie daisies we've got a priest in here somewhere they can heal stuff so that's good so we're gonna mangadize or whatever they call not mangadize manganelles right okay so income these guys this is gonna be this is gonna be the fight here like oh man oh man uh my gold production ain't too great uh and I haven't been getting villagers for god knows how long because I completely forgot about him he's getting a lot and a lot of gold oh he's probably gonna have some good blacksmith upgrades he's probably getting some trebs now it's not looking good I probably should be making another thing there okay getting the trebs on the go uh maybe just take one out can I get the oh I need some more gold sell some more there we go get the gold I need those for the leonages that's what I need if I can take down his castle and get like one treb up and just start firing that's how I can do it I don't know if you can see oh there's the treb there's the treb I was wondering when his treb would come out yeah yeah there it is okay here we go here we go here we go here we go okay let's take that out that's that then okay you got some of those right oh wait why I'm not that far oh that's not good that's not good I'm too far away I'm too far away there it is there it is okay oh there's another one all the way over there oh okay take that I don't need any more stone really but I guess oh here come here they come here they come this is where I'm hoping just a blast a lot of these there we go just blast just blast oh this ain't so good this ain't so good oh he's doing well he's doing well yeah yeah I think he's got this I think this is the I think that's decided it I'm just gonna resign now well played well played I just couldn't I couldn't get it I couldn't get it Gigi Gigi I could have kept on going but with him with all that gold me running out of gold I should have placed my castle more oh he just had me on the back foot I feel like he had me on the back foot for a long time I know just oh I just ended up the confidence to go in damn it oh oh I just got so nervous damn although it was I mean it felt like it was a close game it felt like for a while it was a close game yeah I got more stone I really didn't need what my rating is 957 I thought it was low oh god okay yeah I got more military faster than him but when he walled off that was that was clever that was clever and look at that he knew he was just like gonna build a wall there so he can't get through and I can't hit his economy well done I mean for a thousand I didn't even think I was close to a thousand didn't even think and if I'd brought some horse some knights around I could have just ran in wrecked havoc with his eco I didn't even I didn't even see that well well played well played I want to do one more though I want to do I want to win one oh a Mongol interesting all right I can't remember what this one was I think it's a rabia doing the same tactic same start as usual let's see how this go oh oh my god an elephant this is Africa this is a is it yeah I think this is Africa okay what is she doing that is the weirdest pathing I've ever seemed to cut down a bloody tree around the whole thing what the hell great you've just cost me again how come as soon as they see my scout they just no they just flipped in no it must have been like right on his villages there damn it okay it's an elephant harder to take down than a than anything else there we go beautiful taking down there you go have some of that on your villages a little revenge okay going into feudal good good good oh he's got a lumber camp over here oh that's interesting so I could probably I'm gonna keep my scout safe until he reaches feudal I think right send some more on lumber because we're gonna need that in a second in fact all of these can just go on lumber sort it I got plenty on berry bushes food's not a problem so I'll just queue up some villages to go on there he's got a lot he's got a lot of school how come he has a lot of school kind of curious now oh he's starting a palisade wall up interesting interesting okay so this is still open this way so if I do want to go I can go around that way this is gonna be a this is going to be an interesting one I can tell you that it's gonna be an interesting one well you might as well scout my little bitch aren't we oh he's got a barracks oh he started to always blocked himself in okay okay might just go a few scouts maybe put a council on the other scout he's he's definitely walled in all the way around now oh he's completely walled off this place oh wow okay let's see if we can get a rise out of him he's got two barracks so I'm assuming he might go full three may as well get an archer range as well just in case oh hey just got random okay aging up to castle age now yeah he's got those spears okay I'm gonna see if there's any way in first yeah there is that's good that's good I like that I like that well let's see what he's got we can just kill a couple of villages that's a good trade off for me he's got his own scouts which have more attack and he's got his spears oh god yeah okay let's just have a quick look around see what else he's got well we age up okay that's fine he's got his farm over here that's good that's good so we're probably gonna have to go for spears as well by the looks of this I would say yeah he's getting a lot of spears getting a lot of spears uh with that in mind let's uh let's get archers then sod it it's got a bunch of archers okay so we probably need another town center as well over here let's get that on oh he got us here all right got some knights what's what are these are good against what are what are horse coveries strong versus slow you know it's a long range okay so I don't think he's he's aged up just yet so we are getting a quick lead with economy so that's good I think where might just quickly just get some arches I think in might might do kind of one another another stable there is that up yet oh it's almost there it's almost there there are a few villages there another two villages there or probably send them on on that so we're getting we're getting a good amount of gold we're getting some upgrades here now depending on what he goes for we've kind of got it sorted and the only thing I don't really have too much is food but I have plenty of wood we've got a lot of people now idle so we may as well just stick them on food okay okay we go we do we go on the offensive now I think that's what I do okay I've brought these guys over here you know what sod it sod it they can they can stay out here and just uh right I think what I might do because there is a farm this way I'm gonna head off over this way see if we can just keep on queuing those fillies oh right yeah we need a lot of we need a lot of spearmen and I only have one building that is a barracks oh dear uh yes now he's in the castle so quickly go go go go oh he didn't he didn't repair this oh that's good okay so I've got my I've got my nights in now to split them up oh income is pikeman income is pikeman run yeah there's his load of pikeman that's fine uh oh god no no no no no no no what we got what we got maybe some siege to take on those like the onages and stuff I think uh just keep on getting loaded loaded those well good we're away oh we can oh god there's a lot of scouts oh Jesus that's a lot of okay well I'll take those I'll take that yeah I was gonna say he's just wanting to to bring me back to uh to when those pikemen come that's what he's wanting I can tell you what to have a siege from this side if we get this pikeman spread out enough we might be in with a shot here just gotta make sure that I keep an eye on those pikemen in case they show up which I think they have yep they showed up okay go go go go go go okay this is the time this is the time now it's the time it's pikemen are here okay where's me villagers villagers make a monastery make a university thank you okay is pikeman actually now can't get over here quick enough there we go let's kill that villager right okay and then we head off we head off we just want to disrupt their economy just a little bit uh our economy is disruptive because I'm focusing all on this which ain't so good uh do I need to get a stone can I upgrade it where is my stone quarry where is my stone quarry do we even have a stone quarry I don't oh no I do I do okay well that's okay here's getting a castle which is interesting uh okay I'm think we do a bit of a pincer maneuver here we try the pincer just try and really get him worried really get him worried okay here comes a pincer maneuver going through this way and going through this way oh god what's that oh god I think we're gonna die here you might die here I don't forget yeah pikeman's on that great but we do have a castle oh god oh god retreat do the retreat oh he did have some lumberjacks he did have some lumberjacks out here he's got his siege here they are here they are here he is let's take these guys out destroy the rams and we've got this whoa that was a that was a good pick by me there oh he came for me she throws in the tower with the resignation what I was not expecting that even oh my god oh my heart guys my heart oh I mean now I look at the score the economy was going up but I think once he saw that I saw this area I mean what what did he have he had is he had a few pikemen just scared about just to take on my knights but I think just just just the pressure that I was putting on him I mean he could have just went around and you know caused me pressure that way he actually blocked his way off so wherever you know he could have seen me coming in if he went round with horses but the thing is pikemen aren't too great like what what upgrades did he have on his pikemen plus two got the uh the castle upgrade that I was hoping to get soon but once like the the thing that showed me like the one the game was when he put his lumberjacks in front of my siege workshop and I just caught it and I was like go there yeah and he was just hoping to uh to build out a base oh man you could have easily have just plowed so much into pikemen and made me worry I did have a few archers but they weren't but they weren't even upgraded never any upgrades like I was just hoping to get to tribuchets do a knight and halberdia whatever it is tactic there let's have a look let's have a look at the statistics um he had more technology his military he had the largest army the carnary stone was collected um I did beat him in aging up but that doesn't really matter uh I didn't feel like in this way um yeah look at that look at the amount of pikemen he had this is all he scouts as well like he put a lot of money into scouts um and he had caught it off a fair bit although I didn't make any pikemen all of this and made no pikemen well guys oh my god that was intense that was so stressful I probably even talked too much it was just like am I getting villagers no but there you go one loss one victory it is the way like what is my what is my score now uh 954 I that's that's pretty much where I just stay I think um and he had a castle I oh I didn't get the shot oh well he did make that castle so that was a defense basically he could have made his castle if he wanted defensively around some resources maybe but there you have it guys just some knights running around doing a little bit of a pinsome maneuver I think that just that the pressure he just couldn't take it with like knights coming from different angles and to split up his army oh that's the first time I've ever tried to like micromanage like units like that like two different armies and that's not even micromanaging really but here we guys enjoyed the video well that's a bit by his two oh it's so stressful but in a way it is loads of fun and uh yeah if you enjoyed the video maybe like until next time I'll see you later oh bye bye
