Serpent Strategies

[JKSLYR 1]

So I'm just curious - What kind of strategies do you think works the best?

I usually team with my friend and play 2v6 games, and with AI players I usually just plant mines and 'trops everywhere, then attack with either blood-bond ronin and cannoneers or a team of raiders and bandits. I also have sniper-scoped musketeers to defend my base. Also, I usually put Geishas on horses to save stamina.

However, when facing my friend, my strategy changes a lot, and instead I use quick swordsmen hit-and-run tactics to kill him peasants off. I find playing against Dragon in WotW isn't effective because they have the Guardian units that can just run through minefields and clear them, killing off a lot of my defenses. Plus my friend always taregts my geisha first, which ruins my army.

What kind of tactics do you guys use?

Use fire to burn enemy houses first (burn the rice also) that would make him gonna crazy.!! and lost some of his focus. Poison and stunt battle gear are also good for Serpent (that's their native) (Sorry I play Dragon clan for too long that make me even forgot Serpent unit name, but I think you could easily guess out the correct ones!! ;-)))

I usually use swordman and crossbowmen with poisonus weapons and necromancer. Its the best serpent strategie ever!

wrong. the best strat is to make an army that gives you advantages over your enemy. That is you scout to see what your enemy has and then you can make good army against it. So, do not mass ronnins or cannons or bandits without knowing your enemy's army. Best is the train first tir units. Then you can train these units to any other units that will help you beat your enemy.

For me, i often trained musk or swords first. If i train musk, i have the other training building ready for training musk into cannons. I get snipes smoke. With these two BG, you can survive most battles if you have no idea about your enemy's army.

i don't think scouting help if you are not fast at making building or army. LIke the other person is making musk you just start making cannon when you have 1 cannon out he has like 3 to 4 musk coming no point of cannon then.

[the best 2]

well all i do is make a certain unit and stick to it....

dragon--samurai

serpent--ronin

wolf--ballistaman

lotus--master warlock

then i just build that and only that.... i leave the base with no defence and attack with full force.

fun to watch ur mass units get killed

[Zao 3]

Mass Master Warlock is pathetic. With dragon, make Archers and Dragon Warrior with Fire Weapons. Stardust the Masters and burn them to death.

The Best obviously doesn't have a clue, if you mass a single type of unit you'll get owned.

[cptheslayer 2]

I think mass mwarlocks with soul threshers with some healers owns. But the game needs to be a very long game.

Shut the HELL UP

[Speedy 11]

Moo Moo I never see you online.. Maybe your strategy is good against AIs, but not people. And since you think your strategy is so good, i challenge you to beat me with it.

[IndominusRex 13]

Baxter is right by saying that playing online is a lot different on playing in offline. A good strategy in an offline game never works online, unless you face to a real new player.

[Moo Moo Cow 1]

[Speedy 11]

lol

Sorry for the spam, but it had to be done ;-)

[{HeRo}GeneralDS 4]

my strategy is different for various situations...

1. Scout after i build 2 peasant huts and have 2 on rice and 1 on water

1 1/2. after scouting get 3 on rice two on water

2a. build swords if enemy is making ranged units (tavern)

2b. make swords and muskets if enemy if making mix or need to take buildings out quickly

3. make bandits if the enemy is serpent and is making swords (tavern+sharpshooters) plus mix swords in to help kill the opposition

4.(only goes to this step if the game begins to get long) start trying to get keep and necro ASAP

5.(same as number 4 reason wise) begin overwhelming foe with cannons snipes mugs and vetkin(optional for most battles) along with healers if possible

6. if army gets destroyed, die like a hero!

this is usually only used for 1v1

[IndominusRex 13]

Here is mine

Build a hut, rally the hut to their base, attack their base with own peasant

[cptheslayer 2]

here is my strat:

be smart and have fun.

order 2 peasants to build a hut quickly near rice field.

When the hut is half built, send one of the peasant to your enemy's base.

Use shift+alt key to order your peasant in your base to build another hut near water.

Set hut rally point to rice.

Byt this time, your running peasant should reach your enemy's base. start placing huts all over your enemy's base; they don have to be close together since the objective is to prevent and destroy your enemy's building structures.

Then use the special key commmand to build those huts without being distracted by any attack. Close all new built huts.

Now, you should have enough resource to build a chemist hut or a tavern or a sharpshooter. Use 2 peasants to build quickly and then start training.

Set your training buildings to run to your enemy's base at the hill.

Attack and run using your super macro microwave. Heat them up til they explode. Keep pressure on your enemy.

Then as your enemy gets bored of your male units (they all turned straight now), send in your female pleasers to seduce your enemy.

If this goes right, your enemy does not have good building structure and it is easy for you to destroy most of his buildings. Without training building and a tower in a bad place, your enemy will make you as many female pleasers as you wish to play with. Oh HIV is a lethal virus; it is even more powerfull than blastshot or weaken bolts. My advice, do not accept your enemy's offer of these inffected females. You can make your own at home.
