Recent Victory.

Clash of the mighty titans is what I should use to describe what happened in the last match! We were playing 3 vs 2 Titan opponents on River nile map. One thing was certain. If they had the control over navy, we would be SO fucked! So something had to be donewhich gives me the opportunity to crib about here....and crib I WILL!
It was the basic teams for us, Deepak , ayush and I took Zeus, Isis and Loki (yeah bitch...all civs in oneunholy combo!) Each of the civ has crucial elements which are also the weakness of each race.I figure the Greeks to be expensive so massing up huge armies instantly is tough. Egyptian army is cheap but have few counters to wave after wave of mythic units....and as for Norse... they are VERY fragile early game and cant effectively counte aerial rushes , also Norse units cant get favour fast and myth units are VERY expensive read:Fire giant costs a whopping 38 favour! Alone we have weaknesses but together we ownZ j()() f()()!

Chapter 1: Hunting high and low
So this match had a regular start but was a little slow because Nile map has less hunting and more fishing...even though the map has enomous gold reserves, for 5 greedy teams, there still isnt enough. late game the gold was dissapearing faster than Metalheads fom Himesh reshamiya concert (ok maybe not THAT fast).
We were forced to farm and fish as we slowly destroyed the Greek Navy and then the Norse navy(long boats of Odin have fast firing rate as the bitch took Hemidall and I am sure he researched the Dock upgrades). Norse longboats were a threat due to two docks and a third one later but we managed the navy quite well. The posiedon team doesnt have Apollo so the threat of an underworld passage was not there. AND without a Dock the norse cant come to our side. All was Happy-Happy for my base untill a Fimbulwinter caused my Farming to collapse(I HATE THIS GODPOWER). Now we HAD to attack so we massed our armies.Ayush needs no Navy as his Roc drops are effective as well as very fast. We tried a covert(retarded) strike as we built our forts on the shore and thought the bitch wont notice.First target was posiedon ( we thought it will be easy) and was the hardest one too(we thought wrong). Our First attack was Wipedout(tm) and we had to get more. Finally we built up a forward base. Ayush=2 barracks,1 midgol(Rocs were doing most stuff) YnC 6(yes 6!) Barracks and 2 temples and I 1 Hillfort and 3 longhouse.My soldiers were fully teched so I was spawning Throwing axemen and Ulsfarks. Deepak did an awesome job with his Hoplites and Tox. Basically, Ulsfark,Hoplite,Throwing Axemen, Tox and Phoenix can own any army! We moved into the base and Deepak offered some superb resistance to their attacks...not fogetting the meteor which took out 2 forts. I tried to rush them and build a settlement after demolishing their TC. Now everything was fine until one unholy event. Left unmanaged, Ayush's Catapult blasted a nearby gatherer of Odin.

Chapter 2: Waves of terror
The Norse are quick to anger and quicker to attack, as we saw at least 50 LEGENDARY Jarl heading our way. Byebye Myth units. That is Exactly what happened as Deepak was forced to switch to champ Tox and Hoplites who basically stopped the rushes and my Giants aided them as well(Retad AI shifts to giants and let tox claim prize). Meanwhie I destroyed another settlement BEHIND the base and Ayush came there too...We massed an awesome Seige while Deepak handled all the units. Our seige finished off the entire base and the game was won!
