In year 11, I played no other PC game than the only decent game my PC could run, Age of Empires 2.

I havent played in ~1 year, but I reckon I could beat any challengers.

My MSN is ixion01@hotmail.com . Would love to have a game for old times sake.

yeah awesome game, though at times bit stupid with the inbalanced units.

e.g. Koreans with onagers that is like a movable trebuchet and 100% accurate.

Spanish cannon galleons invincibility, because their cannons are instant, unlike other civs where the cannons take like 3 seconds to hit.

Persian War Elephants having no true counter.

Persian War Elephants are countered by: Anything fast with arrows on horseback.

Manual says: Strong against: Swordsman, archers
Weak Against: Pikeman, Camels, Monks, Mamelukes. So horse archers would do fine, in groups. I remember that the Mongol special unit was good at taking it down too.

Not to mention it is not nearly as unbalanced as AOE1... god that game was unbalanced and shitty.

yeah, elephants were good, but mamelukes and halbediers fucked them royally. In a traditional game, too, the Koreans were overpowered (even being banned from DM and Michi games), but they were too flimsy to rush/flush with, which was their true strategy.

Damn, you guys make me want to play this game now! It was such a good strategy game. My favourite strat was mongol castle rush. I remember one guy I used to play with could get to castle age in 9 minutes. My best was only ever 11.5 minutes, and I had dick all resources. But then again, there were some freaks out there.

Hm i have to disagree haha cavalry archers are ok if theres only a few. but elephants paired with archers of there own or siege work great against cav archers. Halberdiers work fine stopping elephant attacks. Especially backed up with british longbows. As for koreans with their onagers and spanish with the cannon ships, well they really are unbalanced and unfair lol

the 9 minute strategy is only available with the mongols, because of their fast hunting bonus... man I know too much about a game I haven't played for a few years..


And DM players... ppffft.. Get some skill :p
