Ok, havn't posted here in a while before today.
It kinda got boring with all the same stuff being talked over again and again and again.
But This is my Favourite topic.
DMFor all of you saying "it doesn't matter if you loose your main TC in a AOK DM game" are very Very Wrong.
It matters Less in a team game, as you have trade and it matters less the longer the game goes on, but your have TC was a VERY important near the start of theg game for one reason, the resources near it.In DM you have 2 choices where you attack first,
Near his Resouces with a smaller amount of men to drag some of his defenders there and then attack his other parts of town to take out building / farms / whatever to hurt his production or Visa Versa
If you loose your TC's at any point in the game, its over in DM, i don't care who you are, but i've come back once in my entire AOK DM life *which was upto about 5 months ago* and that was just because i was that damn good compared to the other play, someone some of you might know RagingWizardThat's just to ****[blanked on purpose] him off if he's still reading these boards lolQuote:
Death Match games last around 30 min or less (under 25 min for arabia maps)
Actually, that all depends on who you are playing again and who gets the relics, i've had great amazing 45min - 2hr+ team games in AOK DM.

"I think that not allowing you to rebuild in an ally's base makes the games shorter"
If you rebuild in a ally's base the game is already shorter, you've lost all that extra wood around the map, all that extra wood, stone, gold, extra space for farms and your trade route is shorter than your enemy so the game is already shorter and you should of already lost if your enemy knows what he is doing. + the extra time it takes for you to rebuild should of crippled your partner because he's having to face double the army that he has.

DM is, and always will be an unbalanced setting
DM was never that unbalanced, just some Civs where better than others because of their bonus from RM games.
There wasn't one civ that could rule DM, it was all about how the player used them.
There where 3 Civs that if you knew how to use them where unstopable because of Rush or Middle / Late game in 1v1
Huns / Goths / Koreans or Celts
But no one plays Koreans or Celts in 1v1 because they are rookie civs and all about seige, which was boring.
