Hi guys,i saw some posts below regarding the Versailles vs Angkor War. Also people were curious regarding the radius. I've uploaded a picture of the Versailles's radius and also wanted to share my base layout with Versailles implemented into it. I personally think I couldn't find a better place for Versailles but to be in middle like I have it. So, if a an attacker goes from any side of my base they will really have to meet the GP Wonder. It acts as a giant Caltrop slowing enemies in its radius for 40%(it is a lot)- heavy cavalry will just get stacked there if they meet defenders. The 10% HP bonus by the way is for both defending and attacking troops. As you can see I am French and Chevalier is my unique unit. Each Guard Chevalier(GP Heavy Cavalry) has 8,580 HP with library upgrade and the Versailles Buff...if you add the Armor Bonus Blessing- you can imagine that there will be over 10K Hp for each chevalier.
I also couldn't really decide at first whether it is Versailles or Ankgor Watt.. AW is good- provides a good heal for your defending troops in a radius similar to Acropolis(not 100% sure,maybe the radius is less, closer to radius of Versailles). So, yeah, if you have lvv 10-20 generals and stables maxed- the heal is gonna be strong(really strong). The bonus trade good tho- really?fuck this shit- if you raid a lot then u have the trade goods for sure(worthless bonus for the wonder). But then I thought- if you destroy AW there is gonna be no heal and that's it. Plus the bonus 10%HP for an army at Enlightenment Age is a massive bonus tbh. However, if u destroy Versailles the SLOW IS STILL THERE(Kind OP).
My Base- I think I couldn't come up with anything better(considering the fact that I had to place Versailles somewhere to get maximum effectiveness from it). Of course people have different opinions, but I strongly advise you to try something similar to me. The base layout served me well. I got wiped by lvl 115-127 Enlightenment Age players but there is a reason for Difference in more than 30 levels u know. Nobody from GP Age got more than 1 Market and 1 Mill, my other 2 would stay untouched(4 tactics used,gatling guns, and lvl 5+ general).
My personal advice is NOT TO RUSH, I know some people being lvl 65-75 who are already at Enlightenment age with Cardboard Walls(lvl 4-5). And with defences being really under-leveled. Make sure you max out all of your defensive buildings, try to max out the walls as much as you can. Because think about it- if you loot a lot you gonna upgrade a lot hence all the gold and food sitting there for 1d or 2 days(Medieval, GP ages upgrades timings). You only have 12 workers at Medieval-gotta wait a reasonable amount of time before starting your next upgrade. So, medal droppers, high ages can just raid you and fuck ur resources easily. So, yeah max out defences and walls. Forget about farms and caravans(useless waste of time). Even the game tells you-" The fastest way of getting resources so far is LOOTING"
Once you reach a new age always upgrade the blacksmith>your nation's unique unit>barracks. Better army> better loot>faster upgrades at the new age.
I think I said all I wanted to say for you my fellow Leaders.
Main point is to HAVE FUN, don't forget it.
