What is your opinion?
Do you agree or disagree?
What would be a reasonable price point?
Can you suggest a name for the technology?
I’m pretty sure there is a gateway tech.
It’s the first armor upgrade.

“Castle age”.
The gateway tech is the first armour.
The next gateway is being able to afford the 370 resources required, rather than make three more knights.
So it costs 520 resources to get the armour upgrades.
That’s more than a quarter of the Imperial Age upgrade.

I think it’s fine.
Obviously strong timing but there is ways to deal with it.
Knights don’t need a nerf, just learn how to counter them or make your own
There’s an interview with one of the original AoE2 developers where he said the idea was that knights counter archers, archers counter infantry, and infantry counters knights.
Needless to say, archers and knights kinda escaped from that paradigm.
Archers have recently taken a hit.
Now all that’s left is to either nerf knights or buff infantry.
I prefer the latter.
