So I’ve been playing them recently and I love them. They don’t have a particularly strong unit but counter every thing well. The only issues I’ve had with them are against Sarjents and Turks style deathballs. The unit comp I try to get to is kamayuk+ Skirm if it’s an open map I’ll go feudal archer into K+S. Late game I find their siege to be a bit weak.
I never use their Eagles and rarely use their slingers.
What am I missing? What strategy’s can I use to play them more effectively? How do you feel when playing against them? If I wanted to use siege ram+ siege engineers, how many rams would I need to equate to 3 trebs?
You said it yourself, you rarely use eagles and slingers.
Slingers are castle age hand cannons that shoot faster for less base damage, but keep the +10 attack vs infantry.
And their eagles are like huskarls with their obscene pierce armor, but the costs are swapped (gold heavy instead of food heavy).
Using a meso civ and not using eagles is like using franks without building a stable
I just miss Inca tower rushing
No one wants me to tell you this, the winning strat.
Incas are now capable of the instant drush, joining Persians and Lithuanians in the best civ club.
Drop a barracks right away and make two militia, win game
Does it work all the time? No.
But has it worked at least once? Yes
Eagles are their best unit for starters. You generally want to win with EEW in imp against archers or kamayuk against cav.
Eagles really good late game and militia line really good early game depending on map. I go Maa into archers typically and win alot of games early if it’s late game then I do a combo of Kamayuk/ eagle depending on enemy comp.
> Late game I find their siege to be a bit weak.
They have siege rams with siege engineers.
If you have trouble vs Serjeants I’m afraid your best answer is the Slingers
Why go skirmishers?
isnt incas supposed to be an agresive civ?
Kayamuk’s in mass also own Elephants especially with walls
Drush fc xbow is really strong with Incas because of early wood savings
