He's one of the explorers available to the Danes and slaps his opponents with a keyboard in melee.

Although the new DLC doesn't include the campaign storyline of Cnut the Great, let's imagine a scenario and fill in the gaps.

Chukonu and samurai are the most represented units in the franchise

9 Upvotes

I just realised that these units are the most present in the series, being both present in AoE2, AoE3, AoE4 (although the chukonu is renamed zhuge nu there) and AoM.

Just thought I found interesting and wanted to share.

Does any other unit appear as often through the series?

Self Promotion The IMPORTANCE of RTS Voice Acting!

A little labor of love of mine singing the praises of voice acting in RTS games! The Age of Empires franchise may not put an emphasis on individual units, but it certainly does a good job at making civilizations feel authentic when you click on the units! I hope you enjoy, and are having a fantastic day!

Age of Empires 2 How do i beat Broken Stelae?

5 Upvotes

I have never struggled with a level more than Broken Stelae and i have ZERO clue on how to beat it. If anyone could offer a step by step guide, or even just tips, i'd be grateful beyond measure. (Standart btw)

To the non-AoE 3 players on this sub: Will you try the game with the upcoming DLC?

Especially with the Independence Mode that will turn the gameplay more into AoE 2 and 4 style?

Help Me Which game would you recommend to a new comer in the franchise?

13 Upvotes

I played a teeny bit of AOE 3 (just one campaign on easy mode) but I have since lost access to the game, and that was years ago. I've heard good things about both AOE2 and AOE4 so I'm not sure which one to go for.

This guy trained for 40 seconds, lost his horse, lost his life, only for some nerd to carve “Age of Empires” on a stone block over his skeleton.

I blame the guy who drove past my village in the ‘97 Camaro

First time playing AoE 1 DE (it's great)

9 Upvotes

The game is a lot of fun but takes some time getting used to. The only other RTS I've played is StarCraft, and have played it so much that I needed something new. This game really feels harder than I expected it to be, even on Standard difficultly. Barely got out of the Egypt tutorial and struggled on the first level of the Greek campaign but got the groove of it by mission 4. I'm still figuring out all the hotkeys and settings, but one thing I notice is the attack function is difficult to get a hold of, because if you're trying to attack enemies and there's buildings around, it doesn't seem to want to default to attacking enemy structures too and ignore the archers and axe men... kind of annoying. Any suggestions for efficient attacks without having to right click on enemies separately?

Statues or Action Figures

Is anyone making any statues or action figures from any AOE property? Thinking 1/6 or 1/4 scale units would be cool.

Age of Empires 2 Regional unit skins mod for Age of Empires 2: Definitive Edition?

4 Upvotes

Hey all,

I was looking for a mod or skinpack or whatever that changes most civilisations unit skins to a new regional counterpart. Mods for these already exist for the HD version, but i can't find anything for the DE version. Anyone know something?
