Stomping
Hi All,
I have a lot of experience in single player, no experience in multiplayer, so a typical game involves me trying to survive the endless hordes the AI cheats into existence on "difficult" level. The best strategy I've found is tramplers. While two or three elephants are easily enveloped and eaten by an infantry mob, the same is not true for twenty or thirty. *squish* is the sound of the AI's army disintigrating...
...my question is, what happens to people in multiplayer who try to do this? I imagine there's an effective strategy when someone comes at you with 3,000 AU worth of elephants, but I don't know what it is. Archers/slingers maybe? (Keep in mind that LA Arcosephale elephants have high protections too -- nice!)
Also, does the AI ever come up with an effective counterattack later in the game? I tend to play small short games.
