Let me begin by admitting that I am a newbie and I am naive about the best strategy.It seems that I never pick Aphrodite because Apollo seems a better choice for Hades (healing temple, archer bonus, sight) and Dionysis seems better for Poseidon (Scylla MU in water, cavalry bonus). Does anyone select Aphrodite? Also, her GP seems weak to me (pigs) compared with Apollo's Underworld Passage which is great for islands and getting pass barriers. Bronze also seems to be a better GP. Is her choice good for the Village bonus?

Is that why people select her (assuming that they do)?Hydra seems better than the nemean lion, but lion is better than manticore (in Aphrodite's favor).I play vanilla against the AI on a mac. Playing medium now, but am finding econ is keeping me back - which has made me re-consider Aphrodite.AuthorReplies. I almost always go Aphrodite with poseidon, I'd choose Curse over Bronze any day and the eco techs are really good.I think Aphrodite Dyonissus but mostly because I go Heroic at 11 minutes and killing 9 units at that time it's pretty good.Bronze dissapointed me everytime and I don't think I'll ever go Dyonissus again.maybe except vs Norse when I spam Hydras.Oh and I think Lions are very good vs Eggy.these days I wanna test a new strat vs Eggy: semi FH and upgraded Lions spam.

Should do well vs Ra especiallyThis message has been edited by eXcesspetrol (edited @ 10:55 AM). I almost always go Aphrodite with poseidon, I'd choose Curse over Bronze any day and the eco techs are really good.Indeed, the eco techs are great, also the Curse is admirable.
The Nemean Lion also isn't a that bad myth unit Bronze dissapointed me everytime and I don't think I'll ever go Dyonissus againSame here. Apollo seems a better choice for Hades (healing temple, archer bonus, sight) Well its the sight bonus which makes it a nice combo with the archer&rangedmythatk bonus to choose Apollo. Otherwise he wasn't worth it.Underworld is mostyl disappointing me to, because your ally knows you will attack from that point from behind, and the rated games maps are always small so it's not a That great advantage, walking gives the enemy the time to attack you so his forces leave his place to. But am finding econ is keeping me back Than try Aphrodite, she increases gather rates by 10%If you have a mass of villies it will be very very effective. This is a good question!And the answer lies in - when you are advancing - if its 2v2/3v3 or 1v1 - what god you are against. What your army is.I i was FH'ing with greek, by that i mean mainly possy, i will be vulnerable early, from raid, curse can save you.If you are hades and you FH, i think unless its a multi player game, always go curse.Now, if you are playing, and the game is developed, you both have largeish armies, i would go with bronze. As possy, becuase curse doesnt do much, 5-6 units is nothing comapred to a massive bronze army.If you are hades, once again, id probly choose curse becuase underworld probly wont help in 1v1.
If its a 2v2/3v3 game id go underworld.For zeus, in team games i go underworld, in other games i use bronze.As for the aphrodie villager tech, its 35, favour!!! Very very expensive. Unless you have a villie on favour from the start it will take a wile to get this, and then its another 250 food, which may be hard to come by in intense battle.Sure its a good tech, but in reallity, in a hard game you wont have upped all the possible granary/wood/mine upgrades anyway, so whats the chnace of doing that upgrade. Basically im saying, dont choose the god for a specific tech only, consider if you will actually be able to afford it, and the god powers the god has.Essentially in early game curse bronze. Lateish game bronze curse.In team games UW is invaluable.
I dont want to delve too deep into words and thier meaning but you are making statement that would make an english teacher projectile vomit heheyou are making pretty solid generalisations, like 'we know what that means'Firstly i dont know who 'we' is.
