TCs have a bonus vs camels? I thought the discrepancy was simply that camels have no piercing armor while knights have base 2.

And yes, Chinese started with 50 food in Aok. In AoC they start with none (and less wood too)

Age of Kings was a great game, like it's predecessor. The developers focused more on the single player campaigns. They put a lot of effort into a decent mapping of historical data. They did a very good job scripting the missions in a way that they comply sufficiently with historical facts and are still entertaining and demanding. The only disappointment was, that it felt so sterile.

Somehow my AoK CD is broken.

Age of Empires also has the superior soundtrack. They should release refurbished versions of AoE and AoK with mainly ai and ui improvements.

The actual state of the AoC at top levels (still some old and new experts around) in 1v1 arabia map is: huns war, with a 3 maa rush, after that two options: going to castle being able of massing Calvary archers or going forward with 2 archeries in feudal, other top civs in 1v1 arabia are: aztecs, celts, mongols, mayans and with a very good start china. The place where experts play with antihacking system is www.voobly.com and the top forum site is : www.aoczone.net. Until last year there were money tournies with even U$10k in prizes and right now the community is asking Murat (L_Clan_Arbalet) if he could sponsor a new WCL (I think the last one was in 2008 with U$30k).

Last i played AoE (a long time ago) it was in quite a state.

There were like 3 viable civilizations at high level, namely huns, mongols (only really in 2v2 with a hun) and aztec and every game played pretty similar to the last. Huns no housing saved so much on wood making them pretty sick at the whole Skirmisher harass which was pretty much the standard on Arabia.

Viking pretty much dominated on Islands too.

Some of the civs people said were good in this thread 5 years ago were sooo sooo wrong !

Yeah voobly is the latest incarnation of IGzones. The Cav Archer is a staple of 1v1 arabia now, ridiculous mobility and villager killing power. I've ventured back occasionally for an arabia or land nomad game, the build orders are so refined that even 1600-1700 players execute them flawlessly.

@wherebugsgo - yep, pretty sure there's a bug.
@blast camels do have an attack bonus against horses

It's good to see there's still plenty of interest and people who play this game, I played an sc2 4v4 against one of the old StorM players a few weeks ago, wondering just how many oldschoolers there are here!
