Strelets cost 47.5 resources (37.5F, 10W) each Rekruts cost 75 resources (56.25F, 18.75G) each difference is 27.5 resources he converted 80 strelets which is a value of 2200 resources not 3.5k but still nice for age 3 card :)
it'd be mad funny though 🤣the more realistic version ofc would just be massing strelets normally->suvorov->milyutin then using strelet horde as another tech switch later assuming the game lasts that long even.
The thing is: the sheer amount of firepower you can get with a large Strelet mass and Suvorov can be enough to end the game (it's similar to a revolt, where you storm an opponent with a big mass of heavy infantry). That said, I have pulled it off a few times online (1100-1200 elo though). A horde of 80-ish Guard Northern Musketeers hit really hard, and combined with either Tzar Cannon or Georgian Hussars is a hard-hitting comp.
@@VarconScrubGaming I don't know the game maths and I don't have all the multipliers memorized, but the northern musks always seem to brawl well with most units, even skirms
I saw the semifinals where Aiz played, he played it very well. Always raiding and forcing enemy to either take big losses or pull back all the army and buying him more time, always with his unique build orders. Haven't finished watching the top3/4 set, but i know he will deliver
Thank you for nice video! Only one detail: russian cav units called "opriChnicks", so it comes from the old russian word "oprich" which means separately. It is so because oprichnicks basically were personal guard of tsar separate from other soldiers and noblemen. But ofc no matter how to call them; just fun historical fact)
I know Aiz pulled out magic again, but russia is a weak civ. It would be kinda cool if they can overpop with their batch trained units which include all infantry from the blockhouse and vills. Could see an 11/10 start more often and enough wood for TP. Don't see how it could be gamechanging if france and spain pull off 12/10 based on shipment overpops. Don't think it would be broken with military overpop, as an extra 10 strelets is not the most insane buff. Just a thought for balance
it's an ok buff, but usually not necessary i think since russians' church card gives them westernization (all infantry and cav veterancy) and petrine reforms (all infantry and cav guard) already.
probably since the gameplan is usually rush age2 and win or lose. the card is more valuable at age 3 and 4 precisely because of the discounted veterancy and guard upgrades, and the counter goons and counter skirms are nice. aiz used it in this game too.
Lion, I have a great computer, I’m around 1200 ELO and just have been playing for 2 months, I love the game, but in big fight’s the game closes, I’ve tried everything, uninstalling changing settings, nothing has worked, I’m loosing faith
Join my discord (link is in description) and I'm sure someone will be able to help you that will know more than me...One thing I would try is to turn Asset pre-loading on in options, see if that works
