Now this is strange.

I just installed AoE2 today to play with my buddy, and we played and remembered old times... and now a thread about it on tl.net?!

Anyway, who's in to play some nice long AoE's? Preferably 2v2-3v3 since anything lower is kinda boring. But the expansion, conquestors cuz it's much better.

And don't worry you'll just stomp your oponent. If you play sc at a C-++ level you can own at most RTS's, especiall AoE which is very easy.
They first ignore you. After they laugh at you. Next they will fight you. In the end you will win.

I haven't played that game in years, and even in the last months of it I was playing Michi, I believe that is what it was called.

AoE2 is ez

Two civilizations are absolutely rape. Byzantines for late game. They get impenetrable buildings and fucking every tech. Goths for early (as in before they can mass fucking walls).

Byzantines: Turtle like a fucking BITCH. Secure stone and tech asap with 3 towers to castle age. Once in castle age, mass castles and walls and upgrade your structures with your university. Start pumping Cataphracts, Rams and some Pikemen. Upgrade to Imperial and upgrade your cataphracts asap. Get chemistry upgrade at your university, and start pumping those Hand cannoneers from archeries with trebuchets. Mass upgrades like a bitch.

When you attack have-
40~Elite cataphracts
6-7 Castles to fall back to, and like 10 towers WITH WALLS
level 2 masonry (basically, when your castles have 7028 hp, you're golden)
10 trebs
20 rams
30~ Pikemen
20~ hand cannoneers
Optional: You may want some more Elite cataphracts.

Tip:
Always siege castles with trebuchets and conserve your men for direct confrontations. If the enemy can tech Paladins, get more Pikemen and upgrade to Haldberdiers ASAP
Rams should be used against walls and gates. (If they are upgradeable, upgrade to max)
Hand cannoneers are for wiping infantry with your cavalry.
Pikemen should be able to handle any cavalry unless they are paladins or cataphracts. If so, upgrade Haldberdiers asap.

Goths:

These are the infantry rush people. Goth = Rush & Cheese. If you don't beat his ass before Castle, you lose.

Mass barracks (4-6) and queue miltia from all of them while keeping ahead of supply and keep gathering food. Just get food and wood. Nothing else. If there are fish, use your villagers to get them because they are much faster than berries. Once you have 15-20~ rush him. If he's trying the Flush, you'll rape him ez.

Do not go Britons, Koreans, Aztecs, Mayans, or Japanese.

Mediocre races are the Saracens, Spanish, and Chinese.

Two races are absolutely rape. Terrans for late game. They get impenetrable defense and fucking every awesome spell. Zergs for early (as in before they can mass fucking defenses).

Terrans: Turtle like a fucking BITCH. Secure your natural and tech asap with 3 bunkers to factory. Once you have factories, mass siege tanks and turrets and upgrade your vehicle attack/armor with your armory. Start pumping tanks, vultures and some goliaths. Get a science facility and upgrade your metal to 3/3. Get yamato upgrade at your physics lab, and start pumping those battlecruisers from starports with nukes(???). Mass upgrades like a bitch.

When you attack have-
40~tanks
6-7 bases to fall back to, and like 10 bunkers WITH TURRETS
more seige tanks (basically, when your bases have 7028 tanks, you're golden)
10 nukes
20 vultures
30~ goliaths
20~ battlecruisers
Optional: You may want some more tanks.

Tip:
Always siege tanks with mines laid and conserve your units for direct confrontations. If the enemy can tech Carriers, get more Goliaths and upgrade Charon boosters ASAP
Vultures should be used against small units and workers. (If you have micro, lay mines every-fucking-where)
Battlecruisers are for wiping static defense with your yamato cannon.
Goliaths should be able to handle any air unit unless they are carriers or guardians. If so, upgrade charon boosters asap.

Zergs:

These are the zergling rush people. Zerg = Rush & Rush. If you don't beat his ass before 5 minutes, you lose.

Mass hatcheries (4-6) and make zerglings from all of them while keeping ahead of supply and keep gathering minerals. Just get minerals and gas. Nothing else. If there are n00b, use your drones to drill their ramp because they are stackable. Once you have 15-20~ ultralisks rush him. If he's trying the BBS, you'll rape him ez.

Do not go Protoss.

Mediocre choice is random.

im the king of conquerers

use to play with friends last year and always just turtled and teched to imperial age but now i've figured that feudal age is where its at, just build a shit ton of skirmishers and micro, and kill villagers and avoid the town centre. The only counter to skirmishers i have found is skirmishers :X and gothic dudes and champions...

also, mangudai are imba with micro they are like...unbeatable...mangudai > all archer/footmen/seige unit IF you micro

I wouldn't mind playing for nostalgia. Anyone know where to DL it? I don't even feel like going to the store and wasting time finding it for a 10$ game.

Or you can call me cheap, either way :O
