I've played two former conquerers thebest712 and sjnap once and beat both of them. So I have a 100% wins against former conquerers. I'm really just blowing my own trumpet but to disguise that I'll ask -whats your win % against former conquerers?

The Istanbul map is the best normal map to play 1v1 that's why I play it. You start with 3 troops to deploy, you can't get a small bonus from the drop and there is no special strategy to it unlike feudal or the aor's maaps. Every game is different and you have to read the map. I have no advantage on that map yet I have 69 win %
Its a true strategists map.
However, there will always be games where the dice decide. I recently lost 61points to a cadet that missed 4 turns in a 12 round esc game. I've also been beat by 2 cooks. Shit happens but I know I'll bounce back.

well you restricted your self, you never going to enjoy in CC. Its have to much interesting thing here in CC like Tournaments and Clans Competitions, unfortunately when someone decide that points its all what it hes goal,then all excitement and enjoy not exist anymore. Over 200 maps are here for fun, and you need to try to play in all maps , to achive some more goals,instead to play one map every day,over and over again....boring.

Nah the fun is about thinking ur move, finding the best stragey, and fighting strong opponent. If you play alway the same map but that you have to adapt your strategy every time to beat your opponent then you got all the fun. Like chess, always same map, always same rule, but different game every time.
But if you play all the time same map with exactly same strategy for the 5-10 first move and then you always win because your opponent don't know THE trick of the map, then it's borinhg

I tried doubles but felt my partner was not in sync with me. I tried a couple of multi player esc games and won both of them, they just took too long. I've played numerous maps but this game I've found is my whole cc experience now and I am happy with it. Points aren't important, my highest is 2381 and I doubt I'll ever beat that due to the game I play.
And I never beat either former conquerer on Istanbul. I beat them on france and ww11 eastern front (or something like that)

Yeah stoic you tell the doubters, I am with you. I spent months playing Benelux 1on1s for same sort of reasons you play Istanbul. You'll find some other stuff you enjoy sometime and meantime well done. My record against conquerors is cr*p. I've played 4 or 5 while they've been reigning and lost every game. Not much better after they have slid down the table either.

Thanks, I don't know what's with all the negativity from the others. Can't a guy just have a boast in peace. I was expecting lots of congrats and recognition and all I get is sour grapes.

That's better mate. So you've beat 5 but how many losses do you have and what's your win %? That's what this thread was about I thought, not which map I prefer to play but I'm easy.

Probably about 50%. This game is based on dice and selective settings all said and done.

Don't try to tell the man which map and settings he's allowed to play. As long as he plays public games, and that these doesn't attract tons of ?'s, and he doesn't foe all the good players on that map, it's madness to say what he does is immoral or even worse, cheating. Not all immoral ways to play are cheating, and this is not even an immoral way to play! He likes one map, fine, he likes to see how many points he can get, fine, he doesn't play a ton of newbies or very low ranked players, fine, he doesn't hunt down users trying to persuade them to join his games, fine, he doesn't foe all the good players, fine. It's not forbidden to be successful playing only one map you know. If GLG tried to gain points the way stoicbird has, what he did would be alright! But he did foe the good players, he did persuade low ranked players to join his games, and he played a lot of these low ranked players. A glance at stoicbird's list of games played reveals that he plays majors, captains, lieutenants, sergeants, corporals, privates, cadets, cooks. A bit more cooks than average joins his games but the same can be said for majors. Actually way more majors than cooks join his games. He's not selecting his opponents and his opponents are on average not that overly low ranked.
He's won 68% of the games played with these settings on that map, if he's farming what then is my 73% on Das Schloss?

Eh?
My point was just that conquerors are not really that superior strat-wise than your average "good" player.

Are you the only one who has posted something in this thread funky? If I didn't quote you, you don't have to automatically assume I'm referring to you. I know you don't actually read most of the posts in a thread you post in, but if you went back and checked, you'd see that I was most likely not talking to you. Now I'm talking to you, see the difference?

well if you want to have real picture against former conquerors, then you need to play quite large number of games, not just one game,and that these call 100% succes. I play over 20 games, and mine score not great.
When you play more then 1 game,then you post here and present real %.

It's pretty much assumed that if you don't specify who your post is directed at, it's the person who posted just previously.

That's a very impressive record. Seems like the older conquerers were harder to beat cause you been kicking arse of the most recent ones.
