So, no additional citizens or troop capacity. Just the same upgrades over and over again. And that revolutionary barrack troop upgrade you did a few months ago? Pointless. Attack Helis were fun for a minute but of course that was too much fun. NO ONE uses the barrack troops still in attacks and world wars. It’s the same troop mix trying the same things. Zero imagination from the developers. The only thing that changes every age is how much longer you make the build times.

sorry to disappoint you but we do have many players that made the switch from HT/Para to Heli/Para and they are quite succesfull.
In addition, we do have another player that likes a mix of APC/Mortars/artillery and is also an awesome striker.
We also have an infil attacker and a few HT/Para-HT/Fighter.

So, from where I am seeing things, there is more diversity now than the one we had 6 months ago.

It's called a start.

Too many people are still entrenched in the before times, when barracks troops took a Herculean effort for a mediocre success. Nowadays, every Barracks troop was given the means to do what they're supposed to do. It's up to the players to discover the ways and means of how to use them.

And for the record, my main is APC/Mortar/Para/Fighter and I dance the War tune just fine. There was a player in my alliance that ran a Mortar heavy mix with Siege that absolutely decimated some 3D Infos.

That said, I too am slightly dismayed at the lackluster performance of the new Age. Pretty art, some nice stats; all flash and no substance. Library, University, new units and abilities, some redress on the current citizen/time crunches...nothing on all accounts.

Well, looks like I am playing a different game. Using AH to five star 3D monster bases. Got Bred in 2:14, following him i was the only one beating his base the last 30 wars. But as said it might be a different game I am playing.

It’s simple, people saying AH aren’t worth to use them had fun with the op version. It need skills and precise execution now. Using helis on a drone age and a Cold War age Account - they are working at both. Tho its even not a point that they are only useful in higher ages.

The Drone Age is wonderful. Its main advantage is that there is a new rush towards higher ages. What does that mean? That some of us can enjoy the game in lower ages while everyone else buys speed ups.
