Hi, I am trying to gather some strategies against Cho rush in DM games. I have tried every combo including cents+heli, HHA+cats, HHA+cents, but they are often too damn slow to build sizable army aginst cho legion+tower combo.
Given 2 players' skills are same, choson player almost always seems to have edge against the other civ. They are just too easy to amass and too damn cheap to build. Only real success i had against a "good" cho was when the land was divided by shallows (cho hates water, hit archers can really rock in this map) or if I play cho myself. Tell me your success stories against cho before I turn into another cho exclusive player.

I have always used Hittite siege whenever I played Choson. Even the most expert Choson player can lack sometimes. I usually try to fortify my place whilst building siege. The most important factor to using siege as counter has to be speed and number of villagers. Best thing to do is make lots of siege workshops and then start making siege while upgrading instantly, meanwhile make some archeries and EArchers, this way you always have backups. 50 or more legions will not stand a good seige counter attack 25 siege are enought for a huge army of legions.

You are very true CenturionZ_1 many cho's are a complete disgrace and pose no threat.

Why do you guys think that Cho is the best civ? It is not. Cho is a easy civ to learn and use for anyone, just build towers and make legions...Anyway, I am not saying that Choson isnt good, it is, but it is over used by many people. Almost every DM game will have atleast 2 players wanting Cho and the reason for this is that Cho is relitively easy to use.

It's been a while since I played, but I think I played Hittie (and I kicked ass)

If you are playing regular aoe, choson pretty much rules everyone 1v1. Greek, Hitt, Bab are okay in AoE but generally are too slow building up vs. a Choson...
