BEST Artillery in Age of Empires III 

Your finals should get the priority! We'll wait!

Option 3 is defenetly the best arty ^^

It's not that great btw.

Where's that axe ?

Mediocre Cannon

Nah, tuck tuck tuck is better

I have all cheats in my Minds 😂 all.

Kv2 early access

AKA the World of Tanks (WoT) equivalent of the KV-2 and WoT Blitz's equivalent of the Smasher

L'il Bombard suck if you don't have like 80 fishing ships on whales ... They will never worth their absurd 12000 G cost

@@eniotnayssaneb3442 that is why you should use Lil Bombard in masses. It is an expensive and a slow unit, but its quite powerful on its own right.

@@aaronlimeuchin7352 that sounds like massive opportunity costs. Why dedicate so much resources and population towards a unit that doesn't really provide you the dps nor the tactical advantage? I think a combination of falconets and culverins could achieve more, without needing as much

@@aaronlimeuchin7352 I just get them from the Home city for 2000 g and it dose the job well as long as I can protect them. There like a merc version of a great bombard.

10 L'il bombard =12k RIP my wallet. Also, elephants are not that great. Especially against infantry but hp is insane

Drakan R Yeah I agree

gilbert montagné That's because you don't see them coming ;)

Iroquois has the best cannons you can easily train 30 of them

With siege damage dance, yup really destructive

@@syntax2004 theres a siege dmg dance??

@@alexmeekelk1912 Yes, Sioux can perform "Fire Dance"

Well they're stats arent even that good but they still are so op in masses like 15 cannons .U cant even counter them with culverines because they are culverines because of their speed u can easily fight culverines in the most sitation because u get the range difference behind u very fast because they're so speedy.I think they fight better than u might think when u see the stats.

S.P.Q.R Roma invicta Thanks!!

SamuraiRevolution Are you maybe online later today or this weekend so we can play together again? :D

They're very effectiv with dutch or russian because u can spam ruyter or musk in combination with horse art.

It's not cheap even relatively, it's the most expensive artillery you can train in terms of gold and only the canon elephant is more expensive in total ressources.

You never push it unless you are committed to not gathering any more resources.

if you are allied with the Cherokee you can hire villagers from them. I think there are also other ways to cheese in villagers post revilt

@@alack3879 and Cree.. I use Cheat Engine to Max villager count via Infinite (I HATE) Population Limit, and I noticed something odd with The Turks. It seems when you Go Revolution, not ALL citizens turn militia.

@@DavidMyrmidon I like the idea of unlimited population potential. limits are so unrealistic

Daniel Sillito I agree!

Last First they are terrible against infantry, absolutely! But they more more of a mortar culverin than a falconet. Honestly 2 or 3 siege elephants is plenty. Guarded with gurkhas they are pretty difficult to counter

Last First culvs dont get a bonus against them, no. India is probably the worst civ to balance eco and military because a villie keeps showing up every shipment even when you have enough and the elephants are impossible to mass. Ah well the seige elephants are good at what they do but bad at everything else but thats what the consolate is for i guess

Last First to answer your question about culverins, yes they get a multiplier BUT they also have the negative multiplier against cav so the bonus is halved plus the seige elephant has a massive amount of hitpoints and counts as a culverin as well so can take out culverins faster than they are killed (unless range is a factor but seige elephants are also very fast)

Last First grenadiers are fantastic units if the enemy has no cavalry- and yes japan is ridiculously overpowered and with that export card you can mass those stupid consulate samarai that have like 200 meelee damage with like a 3 or 5 multiplier agaianst cav and 2 area of effect... i never play as japan online it just feels so... lame. China would be the best civ in the game if it wasnt for the banner armies. The eco, export, shipments, diciples, units (missing a dragoon and musk type unit but more than make up for it) 2 factories (wonder plus consulate) but being unable to carefully pick units makes countering very difficult. Also that they have no good seige without artillery and hand mortars are... questionable at taking down buildings. India is powerful age 2 becuase you have every unit type in the game (musk skirm pike lancer dragoon that flail elephant) and a fort and enough wood to acually build houses. Late game they suffer from getting housed (villie with every shipment becomes real frustrating when you have 90 vills already) from elephants and vills competing and your units train soooo slow. Japan has similar problems with slow train time but the mobile daimyos can compensate by dropping troops where you need them and japan units are OP to the max. Even their cav archer unit is amazing

Reiz beeee

Nah they suck against cav and inf send in 30 husars and they're dead.They're ok u can take a few to counter artelary and destroy buildings and they do dmg to inf but its not that high that i'd call them alrounder.Horse artelary is way better because they can handle everything quiet good.

@@thenarkknight278 clearly, you do not know how to use Iroqouis light artillery and underestimate it. Of coz the iroqouis light artillery is weak against cavalry like all other artilleries. It is quite an obvious weakness that everyone knows it. Even HA is weak against cav. The Light Artillery is an all rounder, slow, expensive, and less damage than HA, but it had one of advantage that all artilleries do not had. Range and switch mode. The Iroqouis light artillery had more range compared to the HA, so it can act like a culverin against all artillery, even horse artillery as well. It also had some part of Falconet power which makes it effective against infantry and buildings as well. I once got my HA division ambushed and pounded hard by Iroqouis AI light artillery when I positioned my HA on the Iroqouis cavalry units. Moreover, Iroqouis light artillery had faster switch mode compared to HA. Its Bombard and Limber mode had equal speed, so yeah, this kind of allow the artillery to instantly change to mobile and ready for combat.

@@aaronlimeuchin7352 I clearly know their powers and weaknesses. I've never said that they are bad but they are just not an alrounder unit. Alrounder means that the unit has to be atleast ok in dealing with all other unit types. But the artillery has as u and I said a clear weakness , cavalry. Well they atleast do ok damage to range cav but get absolutly obliterated by heavy cav ... even with masses . The horse artillery is more like an alrounder it can even obliterate heavy cav and does more splash damage (correct me if I'm wrong) its fast so it can counter artillery pretty well even culverines a little bit and inf has no chance to do any damage.

It's going to be a while...just put out a Dutch video not too long ago!

Yoeri Hengeveld Decent unit!!

Sharnoy Yeah I enjoy making artillery from factories too!

Modderhoop true!

Ai fucking abuse spamming HA, really annoying.

Practically the Dutch ai

Saddle up your hussars and get to the front. Artillery are shit against cavalry.

Yeah, they're basically the Outlaw version of Ottoman Great Bombards, only slower moving, costs coin, and higher Hitpoints.

Lil bombards are better than great bombards in my opinion

Sioux cav can eat dat thing easily

Henry Clark How have you not?!

I guess i'll turn on notifications lol

No Attack Ground in Aoe3. You might be thinking of the Monitor Special.

Range 100?? No they don't

I love Natives, but marching ANY Infantry against Artillery let alone L'l Bombards.. is a BAD idea.

Ive learned that the true aztec apocalypse event are russians and otromans bringing a Lot of artillero. Big f to my guys

Michael Zeigler Yup!

Stian Schmooples I agree

Use flaming arrows or yabusame

Heavy cannon > great bombard. Rate of fire makes graat bombard way weaker than you think.

Haha, mediocre bombard

Chuck Finley 1) Factory 2) Fishing boats (build them before the revolution) 3) Market 4) Banks

I know it's a late answer but that's not possible because great bombards use 7 pop. and your pop is limited at 200.

i know it's a late r/woosh

@@spudrospadre9171 shut up

@@aoe3Chusik ITS POSSIBLE IN WOLOSEUM ........

Yes, this is true but in the early game you only have falconet and almost all the games i only make that because i win or lose in te first 20 minutes

Ben :D

EpicName build random columns of walls outside your base. The AI attacks anything that's closest to them so they will be distracted with the walls

Flying animals > any cannon ball

Erebor Hoamato yeah!!

Last First you can dodge morters and rockets cost to much pop.

70 * 15 with upgrades... that´s 1050dmg at a range of 34, while a Rocket has 2025dmg at a Range of 28, and the big and most important difference is that a culverine outranges a Frigate, which has 30 Range! And I know.. Mortarships have a Range of 36...

I know... I ment mortartships have a Range of 36... "And I know.. Mortarships have a Range of 36...", everyone who saw this video knows it has 40(+10). That´s the big Ship with a mortar

Not in my language, if I translate it 1o1 its Mortarships, and even if its wrong you should know what is meant by it, Iwas speaking about ships, and the range 36 ... you should know by heart which unit has which range!

You basically just described Revolt. It's in Aoe3 Definitive Edition.

Last First Take it back. Strelets are literally everything. They're artillary, cavalry, infantry, and villagers. They're the best unit in the game for a reason, sweety :).

Last First Take it back strelets are not spammable they're the greatest unit

Bummer Drummer strelets>redcoats Riding lil bombards

OOM- 32 Finally someone gets it!

What ???

Check the right panel when creating a new game

I know right...my favorite!

@@SamuraiRevolution they are da best and have a op area of damage

@@eu6688 I agree 100%

@@eu6688 and they sound amazing when firing!

Mobility>Massing Units

Brits!

@@SamuraiRevolution Most cost effective too?

@@Luciferofom Not 100% sure on that... With upgrades they are extremely powerful. Here they are in action: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-XvLYExMQtxI.html

Nick Karsten hahaha make sure you use hussar/ruyters or culverins

SamuraiRevolution yeah but the get fucked by those janisaries

SamuraiRevolution Culverins do work prety good tho

My Dutch army consists of 20 horse arty and 30 ruyters. Main power comes from the arty and the ruyter are there to cover arty weaknesses. A great asset of this army is also ofcourse it's mobility.

Culverins get the job done best. They're amazing against ships.

@@Amp661 Rockets are inaccurate and go wrong. culverin is the best aganist ships

@@academyofaccidents7861 I literally said that in my last comment. Lol.

Neko Pafu I just get excited lol

lol good enough i guess
