Makes me realize how different an era of gaming AoM came from. I guess the balance must've been enough of a clusterfuck because nobody even tried to play it competitively as far as I know.

I don't think you need to vocalize what you're doing as you do it, an explanation of why you're doing what you're doing is fine. A little silence while there's nothing going on is probably fine because there's going to be a ton of moments where there's nothing going on and that's just the nature of the genre.

Video seems fine. I really liked the unit comparison and stat discussions.

Age Of is really just sending horsies to enemy resources while the enemy does the same with yours. The AOE formula is heavy on raiding more because of how ridiculously tanky buildings are rather than anything else. High level play was about fortifying your resource points so I don't get your point about there not being "strong points." Its just that in the game you hold points so that your resources can't be raided.
