Definetely top tier civ due to the 15% movespeed bonus on their bombard towers

@sebastianmitderaxt203 Год назад

well technically... their villagers are 15% faster after the monk tech... so... you could say that their bombards towers are moving faster too... in way (just from another civ bonus, though) :P

Fun fact: houfnice was a mortar-like cannon the Hussites used in conjunction with their wagons, and is considered to be the root of the word "howitzer"!

@bedwarssimple7615 Год назад

In German there is even a closer link between the german word of "howitzer" which is "Haubitze" and "houfnice".

@BoroMirraCz Год назад

@@bedwarssimple7615 Which is funny, because the word "houfnice" comes from the word "houf", which means "crowd" in english. But the word "houf" itself comes from german "Haufen" (meaning crowd, but also a lot of something).

@xplorethings Год назад

@@bedwarssimple7615 It has a similar origin as "pistol" / "Pistole" from the Hussite times, when the German mercenaries and HRE soldiers couldn't quite pronounce the Czech "píšťala" which is closer to flute in meaning, coming from the similarity in sound that the bullet makes as is whizzes by.

@CrnaStrela Год назад

Another fun fact, when using wagons as wals, they use all sorts of Shooting weapons from "Hakovnice" (early version of arquebus), crosbows to slingshots,(I gues thats where one big shot and lot of smaller ones cames from) while defending in melee whit flais and scytes....

@geeshta Год назад

The bonuses and design of Bohemians ties really well to our history, especially to the hussite wars. Jan Hus got really sick of the catholic church being a political and economical power instead of bringing people to God and that is nicely reflected in the Hussite Reforms tech where the common folks started they own church and separated from the corrupt and wealthy catholics - that's why the gold cost of monks is converted to food!

Since they got bored just trashing crusaders in their own homeland, they decided to go for a very enthusiastic walk in north direction. And no one was able to stop them untill they reached the sea. At which point they made a "Hussites were here" sign, grabed a bit of saltwater as memento and sucessfully fought back the entire way to their homeland. So even if only for few weeks, historicaly Bohemians had at one time acess to sea :-D

@SuperD863 Год назад

The 15% faster cannon galleons mentioned at 13:00 is technically incorrect. Yes, you get 15% more speed from Wagenburg tactics, but Dry Dock, a missing tech also would give 15% more speed to ships. So overall it is normal cannon galleon speed and slower than normal for Galeons and other ships (assuming you consider the speed with Dry Dock as normal).

Interesting point. You can even argue it's worse. Because you have docks for sure, when you have bombard ships, but not necessarily a castle. So the tech has some sort of "additional barrier" for watermaps.

@thefidgetspinnerofdoom Год назад

@@bedwarssimple7615 Yeah, I don't know that much about the survivability of siege towers in real game situations, but that 100 pierce armor could come in handy in range-vs-range conflicts. I mean, a few well-placed Huss. Wagons can turn the tide of a long-range scrap easily with "only" 10 pierce armor, so siege towers could in theory be a hard counter to hand cannoneers / jannisaries in the late game

Such a cool and balanced civilization, out of all the new civs they feel the most "OG" like

@acehughj4527 Год назад

I remember that spirit mentioned he wouldn't cover economy anymore since it's a aspect covered for by the other segments. That said, I do end up curious where they'd rank to other civs with a, at least on cursory glance similar slow powerful defensive siege based playstyle like the byzantines and Teutons. Facing those guys in a team with a Spanish ally for a gold bonus is a scary prospect, forcing anyone to rush them before the frighteningly efficient trade route that costs less, is produced faster and gives more is established and the many defenses are set up. On the late game, it would be a slow death by an endless rain of siege behind layers of walls and castles...

@Handygamer Год назад

I actually jumped the comment section to check if SotL had forgot about the eco section - glad you got him covered there. Still, I was kind of missing a mention of the Bohemians lack of early (Dark / early Feudal Age) eco bonuses that may be one of the reasons for their low winrate on Arabia, kind of as a contrast to the Arena section.

Thanks for the content, it is always a pleasure to watch your videos! One thing that made me think is whether the Bohemian team bonus really puts you 2500 gold ahead of other civs. This sounds way too much given that other civs can always counteract the Bohemian bonus by building more markets to keep the same rate of production. So the bonus could be framed as Bohemians need ~45% fewer markets to pump trade carts, which could be a saving of around 500 wood. Putting it this way sounds way less impressive in my opinion, especially in the late stages of the game.
