Age of Advent, Week 2 Recap & Week 3 Announcement

Hello all!

There are only 10 more days of Age of Advent left!

...and I've only done one of the challenges over the past week.

Age of Advent is an advent calendar with randomized civilization/strategy pairings for you to try out. A new pairing opens every day, just like an actual advent calendar. The link is below if you want to try these out yourself!

Week 2 saw some interesting strategies, and in my opinion has some of the most difficult challenges of the whole calendar.

Day 8: Mongols, 1 TC all-in and not allowed to make additional Town Centers (I lost mine in a Team Game last night...)

Day 9: Vietnamese, trash only

Day 10: Indians, Man-at-Arms all-in (no advancing to Castle, M@A only)

Day 11: Aztecs, fully upgraded Feudal scouts (no advancing to Castle Age. Did you know fully upgraded Eagle Scouts don't trade well with unupgraded Knights!?)

Day 12: Italians, Hoang Rush

Day 13: Koreans, no Loom (you have to win the game without researching Loom)

Day 14: Goths, no Barracks units (so...Hoang Rush?)

Again, if you have any particularly interesting/funny/well-played games that you would like to have cast live, please feel free to message me directly. I don't mind casting them on my Twitch channel or for a YouTube upload.

With this many ridiculous strats, trying them out solo, against AI, or in team game matchups with your friends is also a ton of fun (and a good way to stay indoors and safe).

Week 3 is a mixture of typical game plans and...uh, fascinating tactical decisions, so be sure to give it a look if you're wanting something new to try!

Glhf, everyone!
