History[]

Lasalle, Napoleon’s most dashing and competent light cavalry commander, boldly stated that any Hussar who lived to see the age of 30 was «a blackguard.» Hussars were known for their daring and flamboyant displays in and out of combat. They could be an unruly and rowdy lot, though some, like the Prussian Death’s Head Hussars, looked quite severe. Hussars were used to scout, gather intelligence, run down their enemy counterparts, and in flanking and screening maneuvers. They were excellent horsemen and daring to a fault.The Prussian hussars, who served under Wellington at Waterloo, wore uniforms of almost entirely unrelieved black, with a large white skull and crossbones on the front of their short-brimmed, tall cylindrical hats. Hussars were typically armed with curved cavalry sabers and sometimes muskets or pistols.

Civilization differences[]

  • As seen above, the French and Germans can upgrade Skirmishers to Royal Guard and Imperial Guard.
  • The British cannot train Skirmishers but can ship 26 Guard Skirmishers through Roger’s Rangers.
  • Dutch Skirmishers can be trained from the Commerce Age; they will be automatically upgraded to Veteran once the player reaches the Fortress Age.
  • John Black’s Mercenaries can only upgrade Skirmishers to Guard.
  • Campaign United States can upgrade Skirmishers to Imperial.
  • Chinese and Indians can get Skirmishers by allying with British and Germans at the Consulate, which provides armies and shipments that includes Skirmishers (named Roger’s Ranger for the British, Prussian Needle Gun for the Germans) listed below. These Skirmishers start with +10% hit points and attack than their regular counterpart, and are automatically upgraded in every Age starting from the Fortress Age (see for the exact values).
    • British (Chinese and Indians): British Brigade (16 Skirmishers)
    • Germans (Chinese, requires a level 40 Home City): German Expeditionary Force (6 Skirmishers), German Expeditionary Army (11 Skirmishers), and German Brigade (15 Skirmishers)
  • The Incas can get Skirmishers through the «Tupac Rebellion» Home City Card, which turns Jungle Bowmen into Guard Skirmishers.

History[]

These fortified carts were used to great effect by the infantry armies of the Hussites, followers of the Czech religious reformer John Huss (Jan Hus), who was excommunicated and burned at the stake early in the fifteenth century. John Zizka lead the Hussite forces against the armies of Holy Roman Emperor, Sigismund. His army was largely comprised of peasants, and Zizka developed new tactics to suit the farm-grown sensibilites of his untrained soldiers. They armored farm wagons, used flails and pitchforks, and a number of howitzer artillery pieces. The armored wagons moved in trains and would circle up, forming an overlapping impromptu fortress from which they would fire their artillery baiting opposing armies into a response. The wagons could also be used in offense, charging into ranks of soldiers and knights, loaded with men firing into the groups of knights and infantry. When Zizka died, his skin was made into a drum used to summon Hussites to battle. The Hussite revolution, however, was eventually put down.

Как разогнать видеокарту для AoE3

Все, что связано с «разгоном», направлено на увеличение производительности, но это довольно обширные темы, о которых в двух словах рассказать сложно. К тому же это всегда довольно рисковое дело. Если что, мы вас предупредили.

Чтобы добиться большего значения FPS в Age of Empires 3, сначала можно попробовать разогнать видеокарту. Самый простой способ сделать это — воспользоваться встроенными функциями ПО от производителя видеокарты.

Например, в комплекте с некоторыми видеокартами от GIGABYTE поставляется программа Graphics Engine, в которой есть несколько уже готовых профилей разгона. Это позволяет выжать из видеокарты 5-10 дополнительных кадров в секунду.

Если программы от производителя нет, то всегда можно воспользоваться универсальным решением — MSI Afterburner. Это одна из лучших программ для разгона, в ней множество разных настроек.

Но тут придется все настраивать вручную. Повышать следует в первую очередь частоту самого видеочипа («Core Clock») и частоту памяти видеокарты («Memory Clock»). Слева находятся базовые значения этих параметров. Справа отображаются температура и увеличение вольтажа — эти характеристики позволяют следить за «здоровьем» видеокарты.

При повышении частоты возрастает нагрев видеокарты. Если температура переходит отметку в 85 градусов, то следует увеличить скорость оборотов вентиляторов («Fan Speed»). Если температура повысилась до 100 градусов, то следует немедленно прекратить разгон, иначе чип может расплавиться. Мощный «разгон» требует водяного охлаждения, поэтому не следует повышать частоты более чем на 10%.

Увеличить файл подкачки, если не хватает оперативной памяти для AoE3

Чтобы компенсировать недостаток оперативной памяти, можно увеличить файл подкачки. Это позволит системе хранить часть необходимых Age of Empires 3 данных прямо на жестком диске. Вот что нужно сделать:

  • Открыть «Проводник»;
  • Правой кнопкой нажать на «Этот компьютер» (или «Мой компьютер»);
  • В контекстном меню кликнуть на «Свойства»;
  • В открывшемся окне слева нажать на «Дополнительные параметры системы»;
  • В открывшемся окне перейти на вкладку «Дополнительно»;
  • В разделе «Быстродействие» нажать на кнопку «Параметры…»;
  • В открывшемся окне перейти на вкладку «Дополнительно»;
  • Снять флажок с параметра «Автоматически выбирать объем файла подкачки» (если есть);
  • Поставить флажок напротив опции «Указать размер»;
  • В текстовых полях «Исходный размер (МБ):» и «Максимальный размер (МБ):» указать в мегабайтах значение, равное половине объема оперативной памяти.

Следует понимать, что файл подкачки эффективен только тогда, когда системе не хватает оперативной памяти. Если компьютер имеет 8-16 Гб, то файл подкачки практически не используется. А при использовании SSD-диска в качестве системного наличие файла подкачки и вовсе может замедлить производительность AoE3, поэтому не следует бездумно задавать большое значение файла подкачки.

  • Torps can gather resources when built next to them
  • Mercenary shipments cost -10% coin and arrive 20 seconds faster
  • Always have access to advanced Arsenal technologies
  • Royal Guard units: Pikeman (Dalkarl), Hakkapelit (Drabant)

Unique units

Carolean: Swedish Musketeer that fires quickly and counters Cavalry from range instead of at melee distance. Can charge quickly with his sword equipped. Good in melee combat.
Hakkapelit: Heavy Hand cavalry from Finland with a powerful short-ranged attack.
Leather Cannon: Light, affordable artillery than can fire and reposition quickly. Good against infantry.

Основные части[править]

  • Age of Empires (1997). Повествует о войнах древности. Начинаем в каменном веке, затем переходим в неолит, бронзовый век и заканчиваем в железном. Всего доступно 12 фракций (с дополнением The Rise of Rome — 16). Получила огромный успех, была обласкана критиками и игроками, но спустя два года вышла вторая часть, которую полюбили еще больше. Недавно выпустили ремастер эксклюзивно под Win 10 — кто играл — отпишитесь.
  • Age of Empires II: The Age of Kings (1999). Культ. Классика. Эталон. Хранить вечно. При упоминании серии — 99 % представляется именно она. От войн древности переходим к средневековью. Начинаем в Темной эпохе, затем переходим в феодальную, эпоху замков и эпоху империй, соответствующую XV—XVI столетиям. Изначально было доступно 12 цивилизаций, по состоянию на 2020 год их аж 35. Да, игра непрерывно развивалась на протяжении 20 лет и поддерживается до сих пор. Выход HD Edition (2013) и особенно Definitive Edition (2019, игра, по сути, перерисована заново с современной графикой) только добавили ей популярности, способствуя притоку свежей крови, так что не удивляйтесь, если встретите в мультиплеере людей, которые младше самой игры. Кстати о мультиплеере: наверное, это единственная живая на данный момент классическая RTS не от Blizzard. Матчи, даже эпические 4×4, почти никогда не ищутся дольше полутора-двух минут, а онлайн не падает меньше 10-15 тысяч человек. Правда, из стран СНГ народа почему-то очень мало, у нас все-таки исторически больше любили Warcraft.
  • Age of Mythology (2002). Спин-офф со всего тремя фракциями (греки, египтяне, викинги, с дополнением The Titans (2003 года) добавятся четвертые — атланты, а с дополнением Tale of the Dragon (2016 года)  — еще и китайцы), но зато очень разными, в отличие от номерных частей. В отличие от классической трилогии, игра сосредоточена на мифах и представляет собой историческое фэнтези с магией и артефактами. Вместо камня использовался ресурс «благосклонность», который добывался у каждой расы по-своему: грекам нужно было отправлять рабочих молиться в храме, викингам — сражаться, египтянам — строить монументы. Благосклонность тратилась на различные заклинания и призывы мифических существ. Важную роль играли боги. Главный бог выбирался в начале игры, младшие — при переходе в каждую новую эпоху. Разные боги давали разные абилки и бонусы. А еще это первая игра в серии, у которой был сквозной сюжет: предыдущие довольствовались несвязанными между собой короткими кампаниями за разных крутых исторических личностей. Игра была очень тепло принята и долго сохраняла популярность. Автор правки (и ДАЛЕКО не он один) лелеет мечту о том, что когда-нибудь и она получит Definitive Edition и восстанет, аки Феникс из пепла.
  • Age of Empires III (2005). Эпоха Возрождения, великих географических открытий и Новое Время. Повествует о колониальной гонке, добавлены метрополии — присутствующие в виде отдельного экрана города у вас на родине, где можно покупать различные бонусы. Начинаем с эпохи колоний, затем переходим в эпоху крепостей, индустриальную и опять имперскую. Доступно 8 фракций (со всеми дополнениями — 14), нейтральные поселения на карте, промежуточные цели в сражениях. Сюжет опять сквозной, повествует о злоключениях нескольких поколений семьи Блэков и их вражде с загадочным сообществом под названием Круг Оссуса. Словом, сама по себе игра хороша, но осталась в тени второй части. Таки вышел Definitive Edition. Как минимум, шведов и инков добавили.
  • Age of Empires IV. Разрабатывается компанией Relic Entertainment. Ждем в 2022. Обещают небольшое количество фракций, но зато очень разных, в трейлерах мелькают эпохи, начиная от римлян и заканчивая Наполеоном. Должно получиться хорошо, потому что у Реликов нет права на ошибку (как уже вышло с провальной DoW 3). Наверное, это последний шанс на возрождение RTS как жанра.

History[]

The Ming Dynasty, beginning in 1368 and continuing until 1644, was a period of great stability in China, but also of tightening authority under an autocratic leadership. Its founder was a simple peasant, Zhu Yuanzhanga, a man who spent his formative years in a Buddhist monastery only to abandon those views for a form of neo-Confucianism and a growing mistrust of foreign influence. In the waning years of the Mongol Yuan Dynasty, famine, unrest, and bitterness plagued China’s native Han populace, and tempers had reached a breaking point. In the eyes of the people, the once mighty Yuan Dynasty was little more than an illegitimate foreign empire lording over them from afar. Leading a peasant revolt against the Mongols, Zhu Yuanzhanga forced them out of Dadu, present day Beijing, and unified China under him.Taking the title “Hongwu,” meaning “vast military,” the first emperor of the Ming established his capital in Nanjing and focused his attention on centralizing power, abolishing the office of prime minister and developing a warrior class that ranked higher than any class of civil servant. He also turned his attention to economic recovery and improving peasant life, lowering land taxes, stocking granaries to guard against famine, and maintaining the great rivers of China, the Yellow and the Yangtze. Predictably, his Confucian point of view led him to support the creation of local, agricultural based communities, diminishing the importance of trade with the outside world, and lowering the prestige of merchants as a class.Although his policies benefited the people, encouraging a sharp jump in population due to agricultural reforms, the Hongwu Emperor was often ruled by his own paranoia and ignorance. He constantly feared rebellions and coups, or an invasion by the former Mongol rulers. These suspicions caused him to declare it a capital offense for any advisors to criticize his ideas. Not understanding inflation, he issued paper currency in such large amounts that by 1425 the money was worth 1/70 of its original value, causing a return to copper coins.The second ruler of the Ming Dynasty, the Jianwen Emperor, held power for a short four-year reign (1398-1402) before being toppled by his uncle in a coup that ushered in the next great age of China. Zhu Di, the Yongle Emperor, ruled from 1404 to 1424, often called the “Second Founding” of the Ming. “Yongle” means “perpetually jubilant.” During this two-decade period, the capital of China was moved from Nanjing to Beijing, where the newly built Forbidden City became the nucleus of Chinese power and would remain so for the next 500 years. To preserve Chinese culture and literature, the Yongle Emperor commissioned the writing of the «Yongle Encylopedia», one of history’s greatest achievements.Arguably, the most enduring and influential event of the Yongle period was the emperor’s sponsorship of the fabled treasure fleets, China’s only major attempts at seafaring exploration. Part truth and part legend, the seven treasure expeditions began in 1404 and ended in 1424, the year of the emperor’s death. Commanded by the eunuch admiral, Zheng He, the voyages helped to strengthen trade with China’s diplomatic partners in Southeast Asia, and opened new relationships with lands as far west as the coast of Mozambique and Madagascar; and, if some theories are to be believed, the fleets may have even discovered the New World years before Columbus even set sail in search of his route to the Orient.

Age of Empires III: The Asian Dynasties — обзор журнала «Страна Игр»

21.04.2011 AD

Одним из предков Конфуция был великий Хоан-ти: богатырь, философ и рационализатор от бога. Именно он придумал компас и стал основателем славной династии воинов и ученых. Тогда как именитый потомок, собственно Конфуций, уже в возрасте трех лет отличался особой рассудительностью и степенностью, его главными забавами стали церемонии и жертвоприношения. Вот что значит хороший генофонд и преем ственность поколений.

Жаль, что правило работает не всегда и многие продолжения оказываются хуже оригинала. Но Age of Empires III: The Asian Dynasties совсем не тот случай. С наследственностью тут полный порядок. Второй по счету add-on обещает стать еще одной хорошей стратегией, своего рода подарком для всех любителей баталий в реальном времени. Игру делает студия Big Huge Games, успевшая прославиться двумя RTS-фантазиями Rise of Nations и Rise of Legends. Хотя отзывы критиков и были неоднозначными, в итоге все сошлись в одном: парни умеют делать неординарные игры. Вот и теперь разработчики обратили взоры не на прагматичную Европу, а на волшебный Восток.

Civilization differences[]

  • As seen above, the Dutch can upgrade Halberdiers to Royal Guard and Imperial Guard.
  • The Russians train Halberdiers in groups of four at the Blockhouse for 75% of the price but with 20% less hit points and attack.
  • The Spanish cannot train Halberdiers but can ship 13 Guard Halberdiers through Royal Alabarderos

    Similarly, the Swedes can ship 16 Veteran Halberdiers through Gustavian Guards and turn all Pikemen into Halberdiers through the «Dalcarlian Rebellion» Home City Card.

    .

  • John Black’s Mercenaries can only upgrade Halberdiers to Guard.
  • The Haudenosaunee can ship up to 31 Halberdiers through the «Renegade Dutch» cards.

Overview[]

The Halberdier is a powerful hand infantry unit, good against cavalry, but vulnerable to Skirmishers. It is similar to the Pikeman in terms of its purpose and function. However, it is more versatile, dealing more damage to non-cavalry units, has more health and damage, and can be upgraded to Guard and Imperial, but has less speed and siege damage when accounted for cost. Halberdiers have extremely high attack and hit points for an infantry unit, but are slow, and thus unable to catch up to almost anything to get into melee. This makes them much better at defensive purposes than as a primary offensive unit. The Dutch are somewhat able to overcome this weakness by combining the «Military Reforms» Home City Card and Military Drummers for a total of 5.2 speed. Training 5-10 Halberdiers and placing them behind artillery to guard from cavalry flanks is an extremely cost-effective way to defend cannons. Unlike Musketeers, they will automatically block and melee down cavalry, and can go into cover mode, which greatly increases their durability.

Additionally, Halberdiers are able to beat almost any melee infantry that gets into combat with them (with the notable exception of the Jaguar Prowl Knight), making them more versatile than Pikemen.

In the Definitive Edition, the Dutch can train Halberdiers as early as the Commerce Age if they Age up with The Logistician.

Upgrades

The Halberdier starts at the Veteran level, though this does not increase their hit points and attack.

If made available in the Commerce Age by Aging up with The Logistician for the Dutch, Halberdiers will be automatically upgraded to Veteran when the player reaches the Fortress Age.
