I dunno; Early spearton is really effective against standard chaos starts even up to the 1700s, If chaos had gone for bombers, then it's gg for chaos. But again, it's a problem; because even if the strategy is a noob strategy, it might cause problems for this otherwise pretty good strategy. It's like giant massing. You will never expect it, but knowing that the strategy might have a weakness prompts me to point it out.

Going for bombs isn't a good strategy. Only go for bombs when you have around 6 or, you are in danger.

Yeah, but you can see how tempting it is for chaos; their opponent seems to be turtling (actually, it's early spearton). Let's make some bombs and stop the turtle. Because the early spear start is so noobish that it isn't in the range of their calculations at all.

Yep, I have got LOTS of problems with early spearton with chaos. But if the chaos player gets early juggernight, your screwed.

And can someone tell me how to kite with crawlers?

Kiting with crawlers means that you take advantage of the crawler speed and auto HP regen to not lose that crawler while at the same time killing his enemies with other crawlers. Retread back with your crawler and charge again. During the time it retreats, it gains a few HP unlike the order unit. Keep doing this til the enemy dies.

So you attack, run around in circles. then attack?

actually theres 4 ways. That's one way, another is to garrison the injured crawler, and another is to go back to base to regroup and pssive heal then attack, another is to take injured crawler, don't bring it to battle, just stay near the fight area.

I've just thought of something very interesting.

What if you get 2 crawlers while order player gets a spearton, and he attacks your miners, while you garrison and attack his, and he also garrisons? Then it would be a waiting war; both of you can't get the miners out without getting them killed, and both of you don't have the gold to make another unit.

It would probably be a very interesting fight...

I had been gone camping for a week, so I couldn't see this for a while. With crawlers, you can gradually win against a spearton rusher. 1 holds the center for passive income and then helps the others attack the statue. Keep buying more crawlers/a castle dead and you win.

This was forgotten? That was the most common use of Chaos back in the day...

Might be. I just didn't see it anywhere else here, so I decided to post it. Works well for me.

I see. Perhaps you'd like some Chaos vs Order since my Membership expired...?
