How is/was MP usually played in AoW3? 1v1ss, ffa's, how big maps/other settings?In theory no, but in practice yes. The more and the faster you churn out T4s the better.Is that more of a thing for Sorcerers and whoever else could summon t4's? Even if that works, you're still buying gold troops from cities on top of that, so lower tier units are not made redundant regardless.
From what I remember lower tier units weren't so bad vs the higher tiers at combat effectiveness per cost, especially when you had a combination of both, the lowliest unit could serve a purpose if it tanked a hit for someone else, set up flanking etc.
Though the logistics of getting spread out, slower units to position on the strategic map could be a pain. Aiming for a simple doomstack of t4's is a simple way to play also, so not surprised many would gravitate towards that even if its not optimal.
