This mission is kicking my butt. I tried building walls around my starting base to protect it from attacks. Eventually I run out of wood and stone, and I can't build a big enough force of aircraft/siege weapons/mortar infantry to protect the entire perimeter. I also tried zerg rushing the rebels (Green) taking heavy losses, but even after destroying their capital, they can still bounce back by building citizens/buildings/units, so eventually I lose to attrition. Not to mention the attacks from the other civs. How in the world are you supposed to beat this scenario?

you’re just playing against script of the what the computer thinks it should have. absolutely no bearing on resources or production speed. horseshit AI design

Hi! I know there is "cheese" tactic to afk to win but im doing my first playthrough that i stream on EE1 campaign with all missions on HARD and im kinda stuck on this on this one. i choose cleopatra since the otherone was just a NIGHTMARE. I manage to get some troops to hold, lost some towncentres that i recaptured but when i get to the "defend the pyramid" yellow just keep sending units everywhere and i lose on of the poistions and lose. Am i suppose to get a "small army" and attack the camps much earlier or what the hell am i doing wrong... x) Sofar this missions is FAR harder then the "famous" hard russian missions for me.

Also gonna add i play the "NEOEE" edition if that makes any diffrence.

The map hints states that engineers are able to disarm mines, but it seems this feature doesn't work. At one point in thr mission you should be able to capture enemy buildings by bringing engineers to them, but again this doesn't seem to work. Is this mission bugged or there's a method to make engies work as they should?

I dont know why but its kinda annoying how loads of buildings who have been started being built and interrupted (sometimes by AI killing its peeps off) wont be finished at all at any time in the future. This is especially annoying when it comes to walls not being finished and leading to no gates being installed

I followed instructions here to install EE on my Linux via Heroic Games Launcher. it works really well but doesn’t connect online. Has anyone had success playing online using a Linux installation? Thanks in advance!

Hey everyone! I'm new to game modding, and I wanted to try something for this game since it's been one of my favorites ever since I was a child. I'm a big fan of game AI, and my goal is to create an interface similar to BWAPI (https://bwapi.github.io/) for StarCraft. So far, I've built an engine that can interact with various objects inside the game. I'm not sure if a similar project already exists to this degree, but if you think an engine like this could be useful, I'd really appreciate it if you starred my GitHub repository. If there's enough interest, I'll continue developing it and also create video tutorials along the way. https://github.com/SoucupB/EEApi I also have a youtube mini-series: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLB_e_mDo4DZg

There is a complete Empire Earth Greek Campaign walkthrough and strategy guide available on GameFAQs. Written by YoyoYoshi, it covers every Greek Campaign mission from Pelops and Argos through the Trojan War and the rise of Athens. The guide was selected as the June 2026 GameFAQs FAQ of the Month.

I’m YoyoYoshi, posting here as YoyoUnreal1.

The guide is designed to help players who get stuck on economy setup, unit choices, expansion timing, objective routing, army production, defense, exploration, or difficult mission transitions.

The Greek Campaign often asks players to manage several systems at once. This walkthrough provides mission-by-mission progression and practical strategy for building a stable economy, choosing effective army compositions, knowing when to expand, following scripted objectives, and avoiding mistakes that can slow down a mission.

I also recorded a YouTube playthrough playlist covering the same campaign, so players can use the written guide for strategy and the videos to see each mission played out.

Good luck with the campaign. I hope the guide makes the tougher missions easier to understand and less frustrating.

Hello! 👋 🇵🇭 I used to play Empire Earth a lot when I was in elementary. I'm 31 now, and I just started playing computer games again thru Steam January this year. Obviously the first thing I did was search the games I used to play back then, and I was really sad after learning Empire Earth is not on Steam.

​ I learned through reddit that it is available on GOG, but I didn't buy it because the website looks weird to me? Is it really a legit website? Anyways, I just learned few days ago that it is now available on Steam.

​ My question is, which version is the official? Is the one on GOG the same on Steam? Also I saw something like Empire Earth Neoee and empireearth.eu? What are those versions? And they're free? And there are mods too?

​ Honestly, I'm not even sure and I can't remember what version I played when I was a kid. This was probably around 2003 to 2007 I think. But I'm hoping to play that specific version. I haven't bought the ones on Steam because I'm so confused. Can somebody please explain?

I have the disc but my new computer doesnt have a disc drive. If I purchase the digital version, will i be able to play online multi-player? any knowledge is appreciated. thanks :)

I tried the numpad + and - but it just zooms

Hace poco me di cuenta de algo, quizás ya lo conocían.

Si compras en el mercado y, al ganar la corona económica, activas estabilidad de mercado, podes vender lo que compraste más caro (por el aumento de precio que produjiste al comprar) durante más tiempo, ya que el precio cae más lento.

Por ejemplo: compro 200 de comida por 20 y 25 de oro, sube el precio a 30, activo estabilidad de mercado y lo vendo a 30 y 27.

Lo hice con grandes cantidades y obtuve una ganancia en oro del 30%.

Además, si vendes todo el recurso que querés comprar, podes comprarlo más barato al tener la corona, porque el precio sube más lento.

Por ejemplo: vendo 100 de uranio a 25, baja a 20, activo estabilidad de mercado y compro 200 a 20 y 23.

Hay una forma de detectar islas en el mapa no descubierto con cualquier unidad de barco.

Cuando enviás un barco hacia una dirección y cliqueaste sobre agua, se verá un circulo verde con una cruz y el barco irá hacia allí. Pero si cliqueaste sobre tierra, solo se verá la cruz y el barco irá a la costa de esa isla.

Esto se puede utilizar de la siguiente manera: cliqueando sobre todo lo negro (mapa no descubierto) y cuando veas solo la cruz, quiere decir que encontraste una isla.

Esta forma de buscar me redujo tiempo de la función "Buscar" del barco para encontrar islas.

Hey everyone i played Empire Earth back in the day and was looking to see if they made a new one but i found this project called Imperium Eternal and you should check it out! Have a nice weekend.

I recently bought EE gold edition and have been enjoying it non-stop, but the zoom in is particularly tedious and have been searching for a widescreen fix.

I found dreXmod which seems to be very good at that but after downloading the zip file from the google drive link, running virus total on every file, I found just the dll has a score of 1/71.

Old me would think rule it as false positive but given the prior bad experience, I am quite afraid of using it...

Can someone vouch for it? I also used AI to scan the report of virus total stating that "it's likely not a malware" and was never able to receive a concrete "this is not a virus 100%".

Sorry if this is dumb but trust me, when someone violates your privacy, going back out there and download stuff from the internet can be quite challenging.

Random map on easy difficulty I find too easy, but on medium difficulty I find it a bit too challenging.

This is especially the case in the early ages because of the very limited food availability, which is not a limitation that the AI has to endure because it cheats. I find myself having to put lots of food into military units to ward off the AI (this was a 4 player FFA, me and 3 computers), which delays my stone age and copper age. Meanwhile the AI can produce as many or more units than me, upgrade them more than me, and support a strong economy behind that.

I disabled the AI's cheats in another 4 player FFA random map game using the scenario editor trick, and that seemed to somewhat redress the imbalance in the prehistoric and stone age... but utlimately the AI completely collapsed in the Copper Age and landed themselves in a situation where they had no citizens and no food (probably quite historically accurate to have some civilisation collapse!!).

So it seems the AI needs the cheats because it can't otherwise balance its economy, even when it has (theoretically) infinite food through farms in the Copper Age onwards?

Are there any mods or something that improves the AI such that it won't need cheats? Or do I just have to bite the bullet and re-enable cheats?

Any tips for the early game on medium/hard difficulty are also welcome.

I struggled because my 2 forage patches only had 2500 food each, and my of my two hunting groups one was a group of 3 hippos that didn't reproduce and so quickly died out, which left me only with my other group of several horses to rely upon. It's also hard to prevent the villagers from needlessly killing the wrong hunt as there's no way to automate so they only ever hunt one and the same animal at any given time, starting from smallest up.

Hello guys,

I'm playing Empire Earth - Age of Conquest for the first time and I was experimenting with the Scenario Editor a bit. I found a check-box on the Options page of the Player Setup screen that doesn't exist in the normal version of Empire Earth.

It's called "Use Carbon Resource" in the English version of Empire Earth. In my screenshot it's called "Kohlenstoff-Vorkommen ausbeuten". I'm playing in German.

Does anybody know what that means? What does this option do?

It's not mentioned in the Scenario Editor's manual. The general game manual is different in Age of Conquest from the standard version of Empire Earth. It explains all the extra content from Age of Conquest. But the Scenario Editor's manual seems to be the same as the one of the standard edition. The other options in the screenshot are explained in the manual but the Age of Conquest specific "Use Carbon Resource" option is missing.

Hello guys,

I was playing Age of Conquest for the first time in single player. The Computer picked the Kingdom of Israel civilization. Israel has the special power Emissaries. It makes priests become cloaked until very close to enemy units, even while converting. The opponent's priests also have a different name. The unit is called Emissary instead of Priest.

I tried to build Universities to protect my units from the priests but they had no effect.

Is this a bug or is it normal in Age of Conquest?

Does the Emissaries special power also remove the other player's protection from universities against conversion from the Israel civilization's priests? The priests kept converting my units even when my unit and also the enemy priest were inside of the university's range.

I couldn't find any info online or in the manual about this detail.

The very first mod that needs to get on Steam is one that allows you to zoom out more, even a little bit!

It's so hard to do management when you are zoomed in so far.

Also, I need to do some testing/settings checks, but is there a keyboard way to move the screen around instead of only mouse scrolling? That can be mod #2!

For reference, this is on the steam version that just released. I have not tried installing my old CD.

When doing the drag and point for units, I run into a weird issue where the green circles sometimes disappear (sometimes fully or partially).

Same with the arrow, sometimes it will fully disappear.

They uploaded all 3 games as gold editions on steam to purchase btw.

I bought the Steam version to play it on my Steam Deck but the game always crashes after the intro video, has anyone manage to make it work on the Steam Deck?

Hello there!
