For all you Loki faithfuls, this guide will not disappoint. Although Thor has become equally menacing, Loki can be ideal for rapid expansion and the speed of destruction that will defeat almost all major gods in AOM. This guide gives an insight into the various techniques of playing Loki in multiplayer games, along with threat assessments and the counter tactics that can be employed in such situations.
Gameplay emphasises on an offensive expansion; the true strength of loki, combining time-saving tips and military tactics that can be used against the other gods to killer precision.
Your feedback would be invaluable, whatever it may be!(get_nirmalk@yahoo.com) Special thanks to AOM HeanvenGames.

Very interesting. Never seen a norse player who wants a defensive stance...ie walls with towers at regular periods and two towers per building and just building another wall after that to cover ground. plus i never hear norse players planning on going mythic pretty much at all.
Another interesting thing... Seems to work Really Really REALLY well against comp but not so good against humans. Comp just kept sending the same old army atthe wall and i just used towers and ten ta's to kill over 100 jarls...in spaces of 20 jarls per group of course...just couldn't break my wall and then i just fixed it before the next attack.
But human player take a ton of long range siege and just knock wall down.
Thanks for that

It wasn't a real good guide, cuz a human player can beat this stragety easely. Loki and Norse have the power to rush after 10/15 minutes with a good army. Use this strength. And btw, if you play a rated match against a human and build a wall, you're doomed against a good player. With this stragety, you can hardely beat a human with a rating of 1640/1630.

Hello???
Was it a guide for playing and winning or playing and losing always.
It was the worst guide I have ever read.
I agree that I have done wrong giving this guide a rating of 1 but rating which was less than that was not available in the ratings options.
In fact I thing that the game which was shown in the guide was also played using cheats as with such poor playing skills no one can ever come in such a condition in which u were in the game as shown in the mini-map.
advancing to the classical age with 3 gatherers on food, 3 on gold and 7 dwarves. It is nothing less than joking. Morever so high resources with so less gatherers is impossible.
