Yes, there have been more articles added to the University recently! Here's a brief rundown on the new items:
Have you ever gotten smothered by your opponent in the Dark Age, and want to know how they did it? Look no further than our guide to the Drush (written by CutthroatSkunk), that has been dredged up from the depths of the G&SD archives and added to the University!
Tired of playing Arabia online, and looking for a change? Try a few games of Land Nomad! To get you started, we have an in-depth explanation of Land Nomad (written by Intimatum), to get you well on your way for some fun on a whole new level!
Still sticking with the strategy articles, we have been granted permission fromMrFixitOnline to mirror some of their articles here at the University! So, without further delay, we give you:
How Monks Really Work , an excellent item written by MFO Staff, with additions by Neilkaz and AndyHRE. Like the title states, this statistic-based article covers conversion rates, and debunks a few common myths about monks.
Benefits of Multiple Builders , a short-but-to-the-point article written by gutter_rat that lists the build rates for various numbers of villagers. (Interesting note: did you know that it takes ten builders half the time it takes four builders to build the same building?)
Rates of Fire (written by Neilkaz) lists rates of fire or attack of all the units in AoK, and also explains a little bit about the effect of the Thumb Ring Technology.
Ever wondered exactly what it costs to gather resources? If so, be sure to read Council of Elders Real Cost of Resources list of stats and step-by-step instructions to figure out exactly what it costs you.
Finally, the lone design-related article that's been approved since the last update:Dealing with Music and Dialogue (written by our very own Luke Gevaerts), which outlines a few effective techniques to effectively play music without sacrificing proper use of dialogue in your scenario.
And remember,you can contribute to the University by leaving feedback on articles (or posting your own!) over in the University Forum!
