[QUOTE=Psycho_Shadow;37513797]The waves they send are usually pretty small to start with, so you should be able to match their capacity if you can deal with their attempts.
Moderates force you to actually build military units earlier on in the game in order to prevent getting wiped.[/QUOTE]
I see my mistake, I've been rather careless about military strategy. Kind of like, "Counter Infantry? Eh, ordinary soldiers will do".
Damn this thread for nostalgia. I just had to buy it from Amazon.
Shit I didn't know we had a thread for this
I should find my cd key and reinstall
And tell FP to do the same, surprisingly few people are posting in this thread while a lot of people actually played it earlier.
It has aged very well in my opinion.
Oh god how could I ever stand the Battle Boar's texture
it just looks so eueeuhghgh

Also is there any multiplayer left for this game? Last I'd heard it was removed or something?

Ugh. The eyes, they look a six year old drew them on his Nintendo DS.
Have not played this for 5+ years and I guess it's time to reinstall it. Are there any decent mods for this game you would recommend?
Annoyingly, AoM heaven is currently down.
I'd love a mod that increases the maximal population. It probably would be easy to do myself, but I can't seem to find the files responsible for that.

I wouldn't know how to change the upper limit but I was thinking you make all the units free of population and only myth units occupy population space.
I'd rather just remove the limit on houses, or make one house hold more pop.
Making house hold more pop won't work, the max is 300 no matter how many houses you make.
Wow I just dug this out and found it in a huge tub of games I got before I started buying things off of steam or console.
Maybe I'll play later, I want to install all the age of empire games I have along with the expansions.
Oh wow, I remember this game. I remember when I bought the Collectors Edition for my birthday when I was younger, I still think I have it somewhere. My favourite was always Odin, Thor and Cronos(Is that his name?)
I want to get back into making maps for RTS games, but if I ever feel like playing my gameranger is overwatch_elite please add to op

Well, I guess that's something to change too.
I still have this game, too bad nobody plays MP as far as i'm concerned.
There was this one map called "Art Contest" where players would create the best city, was pretty fun.
Wow I was way to young to understand anything about mp when I first played this, did I miss out on much?
I should try to find this game again, but I recently moved so it might be really hard :V
Oh well, if I can't I can't, although if I could it would be good.
we should all play the l.o.a.p variant on AoM
So is there a way to remove the pop cap? If so, I'll gladly reinstall.
Oh my god this game was all of my childhood
Does anyone remember the custom game where everything build extremely fast and you had to survive the horde of savages or something like that?
I try to find a config type of file to change the pop cap. I thought it be like rise of nations where you find a file and have sextillion units
Damn you AoM Heaven come back already.
Are they stored on some Internet time machine? We could see their tutorials and links to mods.

Downloading from it won't be easy at all. Just wait until tomorrow, it'll be back up then.
I didn't find my CE, just found the Original Soundtrack and a few pictures of the gods. I'm going to try to dig through some boxes to find the poster tomorrow :v:
Also we should try to get a MP game going.

Added.
I've essentially finished the scenario I was working on, but in hindsight it was mostly just practice for when and if I actually make a scenario worth playing. The hardest part imo is finding a good, practical idea for a scenario.
For those interested in playing AoM- PM me or post in this thread with your gameranger name to get added to the OP.
Day 2 of searching through all my shit to find this game again commences.
I used to love attempting to do Cavalry Rushes with the Greeks, using Poseidon. It ended up being hilarious if your opponents didn't react fast enough.
Unfortunately when I install this off my disc the music files are corrupted, requiring me to skip every single one. there's ALOT. :v:
I saw the non gold version at Gamespot though, for twenty bucks! I was tempted, but I feel like I'll find it cheaper everywhere else.
ISIS HEAR MY PLEA
For shame, the musis in the AoM series is great. The first ones soundtrack has a special place in my heart.
Oh, OH my god!

This game was also my entire childhood. Every summer it was AoM all day every day. I made lots of maps and by the end of my time playing I had made quite a lot of custom games that were circulating in multiplayer. Not to mention the 5 clans I started and failed miserably. Don't think I'll be picking it up again, but damn this was a great game. AoE Online has nothing to compare.
