That's amazing. I love that game dearly and have been playing on/off for more than 15 years, so I get routinely obsessed with it, play a lot a few weeks, get good against the AI (usually using cheese like huskarl spam or massed mangudai), then get my ass handed to me online & ends up quitting. Then I don't play for a year or so.

At which point were you able to reliably not fail the boar lure ?



While I disagree with the other comment gatekeeping RTS's, which can be played however you want (my father pauses the game in between every action in order to keep up with the gamestate), I do agree that ~15-25 games of dedicated boar lure practice, just restarting the game after each attempt, should be enough to get it right in tandem with watching some videos on how to do it.


If you’re dying to the boars you should just be playing the first 9 min of the game on repeat against the AI. If you can’t master that after 15-30 games, then RTS are not for you :)
