Granted the pult can be taken out next time, but i doubt i'd still beat those towers down.

    The one problem i find wrong with your statement is that they did not reach the desired distance in minimum rounds. Theoretically you basically stated the purest jaq hit is a calv bomb. Nothing to slow it down or set itself at a longer range...
    Only my attempt at at differentiating between a pure jaq hit and an impure jaq hit. Im here to learn myself Guess what i meant was a pure Jaq hit is simply a hit that can't be improved upon.

    Removing the pult would have resulted in swords hitting on archers in round 3 suffering no losses. Then round 4 another full swing, then suffering loses at the end of that round. Im thinking a little higher attack hero while keeping int cap for swords and you may have taken out all archers by round 5 while still having 40k swords or so left to take on 10k ATs.

    Still a loss imo as swords don't fare too well against Ats but a slight improvement.

    Your hit replicated but with int capped pikes instead of swords and a hero around same attack would be an interesting comparison

    1 trap on defence and this attack would have failed

    Putting my usual pedant's hat on, though. Should it be described as a jaq? The scout, cav & pike are all faster than the swords. That's not a disadvantage with this hit, of course.
    that is very much the truth this in a typical Jaq setup according to layers and #s being precise but it is however one of the better layers for this type of defense (given the statement about the lack of cav) i would presume that he didnt realize the issue of the faster layers would remove it from being called a Jaq but they would have helped had the defender built some warriors or some other type of fodder. anyhow i use swords all the time in the same fashion. so ill try to scamper up a few reports this weekend. got bout 600k swords to kill off lol

    Yeah, the OP hit was great and well layered, but technically not a jaq as the jaq principle is to use ranged troops to draw fire from the fastest troop type which is then wading through the defender.
