Ra: 2v2 Myself as Ra and KS_General as Isis vs. Kevin as Isis and DBD_Alexander as Zeus on Ghost Lake

There are some pretty good fights in this one, but all it really took was one swift attack somewhere Kevin wasn’t expecting it to gain the edge I needed.

Ra: 3v3 Myself as Ra, KS_General(Oranos) and DBD_Wolfman(Thor) vs. Ho_Chi_Minh_(KS_perfection I think, Oranos) Sub7_Apophis(pos) and Komansee(Oranos) on Oasis

Pretty good game, lots of action and plenty of sloppy play on my part :).

Ra: 2v2 Myself and Vagabond_Kanta(Hades) vs. Tahngarth_be(Ra) and Vagabond_Flank(Poseidon) on Anatolia

I really should have gone for the FH and gone for water that way. Doing things the way I did them left me too weak and yet again I waste more troops on nothing than I really should be.

Ra: 1v1 vs. tk_Fraudas as Oranos on Savannah

Poor unit selection hurt me somewhat in this one, more axemen less spearmen would have really been great. But I think the biggest problem was that there wasn’t a lot of good natural hunting that I could easily get to early on. Wish I had found those elephants south of my base.

Ra: 1v1 vs. L_Clan_Shmeker as Isis on Tundra

My solution to Isis as Ra. Well it’s somewhat of a solution anyways. I love those Wadjets. I think my shifting sands did as much damage to him as his ancestors eclipse did to me :).

This is why I don’t like to FH with Ra, now I remember hehe.

Ra: 1v1 vs. skwizz_ownz_u as Poseidon on Tundra

A rematch of sorts, we played each other in the aots tournament except it was zeus vs. ra, other than that all was the same…. except the outcome hehe.

Ra: 3v3 Myself, prtn_war_hammer(Odin), and BigFella(Oranos) vs. Phat_Pjc_(Loki), KS_Prophecy(Kronos), and KS_Rockstar(Ra) on Tundra

A pretty cool game, Rockstar gets me with a good shifting sands early on that gives him a pretty good edge, however I never give up easily and manage to raid his gold pretty well with the troops he shifted away. After that it’s just big battle after big battle.

Ra: 1v1 vs. TrepanierMP as Isis on Marsh

Apperently mercs are the way to go in egypt wars :(. Kind of sad really, guess I should learn to use them more. I went classical too early this time just to see if it could be done (hunting dogs+2 monuments starting) other than that it’s a pretty cool game.

Ra: 1v1 vs. Vagabond Point as Hades on Oasis

The battle between #1 and #2 on the TRL who will come out the victor? Pretty good game I think.

Ra: 1v1 vs. skwizz_Ikya as Hades on Highland

Again my opponent lets me having fishing far too easily while not protecting his own enough which gives me a BIG boost and allows me to just boom away with a big army. Good raids by him I really wasn’t following them well despite my LOS.

Ra: 1v1 vs. Pointbreak as Isis on Midgard

I decide to go for a big fishing boom which gives me a big advantage right off the bat due to this being a basically non rush game. After that you can see me make a few big mistakes by lacking in military buildings/upgrades in general which almost give him a chance at a comeback.

Ra: 1v1 vs. TOAO_Caleb as Odin on Ghost Lake, Lightning Match

He tries to hem me in real fast, but I won’t let him get away with that :D.

Ra: 1v1 vs. KS_Gabriel as Loki on the unknown

Another warm-up game for the unknown tournament. Kinda funny how I was playing random and happened to get these same two civs (ra, hades) as I ended up using vs. str_darklight.

Ra: 1v1 vs. my_02 as Loki on Alfheim

I decide not to opt for the FH this time and it causes me some problems.

Ra: 2v2 Myself and RIP_Ivanhoe(Poseidon) vs. DoC_Lemperator(Isis) and DoC_Thrin(Loki) on Alfheim

Another semi Ra FH this time I decide to go with barracks units as the base of my army. good move, bad move? I dunno, but it worked eventually.

Ra: 1v1 vs. Myryoko as Isis on Alfheim

I’m of the opinion that Egypt in general has too many advantages over norse on land maps…. anyone with me?

Ra: 1v1 vs. Mya_02 as Odin on Ghost Lake

Ra FH in action. I get a little bit behind for some time, but SoO and camels manage to get me a foothold.

Ra: 1v1 vs. myryoko as Isis on Alfheim

Bleh darn those ancestors are tough… throw in a few hundred rams and it’s just too hard to target them even with all my priests.

Hmmmm good thing this map isn’t built for Set….. nm…… No I’m not bitter.

Ra: 1v1 vs. grrr something or other as Loki on Watering Hole

This guy doesn’t seem like the smartest of players out there, first he attacks my barracks which boggles the mind, next he gives me his healing spring for nothing!!

Ra: 2v2 myself and eX_Dynamos (hades) vs. Blue_Bawls(poseidon) and eX_Wolf(zeus)

Go fast heroic go! Pretty decent game, back and forth for a little while. Blue Bawls is one of the testers for ES(whose name shall remain secret), and after the game he asked if mercs were still such a big problem…… ummmm Duh?

Ra: 1v1 vs. Thor_Rookie as Set on Alfheim

Overall things didn’t go as badly for me as I had expected in this one, unfortunately however I just couldn’t manage to get a third tc away from him and that meant certain doom.

Ra: Bugged game!!!

Not really a game worth watching normally, but it does involve an interesting bug I had never run into before. Apperently you can cast shifting sands on Locust swarm and cause it to be in two places at once.

Ra: 3v3 Myself, KS_General(Zeus) and DBD_Atomic(Set) vs. Majoy_bad_loser(loki), DCLXVI_Goodies_(Odin) and WO_Sing(Isis) on Ghost lake

Generals version of his Zeus Fast Mythic strategy, really neat and very powerful in team games, you should definitely check it out just for his cool strategy.

Ra: 2v2 myself and KS_General(Zeus) vs. Set_Whore01(Odin) and Dokoth(Thor) on Alfheim.

I’m going to guess that this isn’t the way to play Ra. Things started out fine but I just didn’t seem able to keep up with his military mix very well.

Ra: 1v1 vs. Port Lobo as Set on Midgard

Pretty good game, notice how I manage to get hardly any upgrades, pretty silly play in that department.

Ra: 2v2 Myself and StorM_Eh vs. MAD_Miyamoto and L_Clan_Destiny on Midgard

Not a bad game, watch StorM_Eh completely save me in this one, I didn’t really plan ahead well enough (on top of not seeing a gold mine) and I almost cost us the game due to a severe lack of gold.

Ra: 1v1 vs. ZoD_Shadow as Loki on Anatolia

I manage to take my one side of the fishing, which is all I want. Will I be able to withstand a Hersir rush too?

Ra: 1v1 vs. TITAN_Apollo as Loki on Anatolia

He makes one key mistake by committing his troops to a wrong fight in heroic and I jump all over it, I’m just glad he never used his flaming weapons or I would have likely been in big trouble.

Ra: 1v1 vs. oWn_StinkSmurf as Poseidon on Anatolia

Pretty good game, Ra FH in action, I don’t even bother with water on this one hardly. Watch how many ships he commits to killing off my fishing though.

Ra: 1v1 vs. GH_Hispano as Odin

An 1800 player and it shows. I think he was probably a bit thrown off by my rating or something. Anyways he let’s me have the water too easily, and really never builds any villagers to replace his fishing ships even.

Ra: 1v1 Vs. Origin_ as Loki

I try to FH, things don’t turn out so well due to my poor econ and poor unit selection.

Ra: 1v1 vs. Arkandos as Set

This game really frustrated me at the time I played it so I’m not going to rewatch and give any description.

Ra: 1v1 vs. KoR_Wormwood

The Fast Heroic certainly isn’t dead, I seem to be having at least 50/50 success with it.

Ra: 1v1 vs. Tombo as Poseidon

I don’t know why people say Ra is so incredibly weak, I seem to have more success with him than I do with Isis.

Ra: 1v1 vs. Tobus as Poseidon

I seem to be getting Ra a lot when my opponent is poseidon kinda weird. Really good game I think, worth a watch.

Ra: 1v1 vs. snoopy_ as Posiedon

Kind of interesting to play another person who seems to be playing random god as well, this is my second of 3 games vs. him. I go for the Fast Heroic, is it still a viable strategy?

Ra: 1v1 vs. Eva_my_baby

I try out the good old reliable Ra Fast Heroic. I think my biggest mistake was not mixing in any barracks units.

Ra: 1v1 vs. BsK_Warriors as Loki

I’m not entirely sure why he played so defensive as Ra definitly gains strength as the game goes on.
