Well,
CA+ST is a very strong, especially for hittite. Just line up the CA behind the ST and then bring on the camels. The camels trying to take out the ST will die while trying.
The best bronze age army is who has more units. The best any age army, is the numbers.
My philosphy of ROR/AOE is this, the best expert player can lose to the most average, average player just due to starting position. The expert player will always try to take a bad starting position and turn it into a good one. If the average player has a great starting position, no time is wasted in the attempt to create one, even if they know how to or not.
What Elijeh said, IMO, was not a flame in anyway, it was his opinion of a topic, directed at a person who he disagreed with. There was nothing inflammatory about it. I would hesitate in suggesting this was a flame because that's called "blowing it out of proportion". Although I don't know any of you people, so you might be more sensitive about judgements/suggestions given by others.
The only thing I can state as fact is 4v4 games rock!
