I play Starcraft on there occassionally. Haven't played Age2 online, but now I am tempted.

Goths-crank out huskarls like crazy with a few trebuchets and game over
What is the worst unique unit? I would have to go with the throwing axemen: what is the point? Low HP, low damage, all so you deal melee damage at (short) range? Gimme a break.
Mongols were my go-to civilization. Calvary archers, mangudai, and then a load of camels to protect the horse archers. Killer against infantry/calvary based civs. The only problem is you get destroyed by the siege weapons and defensive based civilizations.
I've seen quite a few people playing this game just from downloading it onto their laptop or possibly flash drive. Anyone know a safe place to do download it?
So much nostalgia in this thread. Gonna have to get a LAN party going when I finish installing disk 3 to my Compaq running Windows ME.
you can get the HD version on steam for 20 bucks, 5 bucks when it's on sale. Also you can use operating systems made in the last decade

strategically, the Britons longbowmen are really effective if you use them in coordination with trebuchets... set up some trebuchets and assign a ton of longbows to guard them. the longbowmen have a long enough range and fast enough rate of fire that it's nearly impossible for the trebuchets to be attacked by melee or ranged (non-trebuchet) units.
for fun, i've always enjoyed the aztecs and the japanese... jaguar warriors and samurai are so sweet
I orefer the Britons, too.

Same here. My go to move used to be to build up a strong force of mangudai, and slightly smaller force of foot soldiers. Hit the enemy's forces hard and fast with mangudai, bring in the infantry 30sec later to attack the unguarded infrastructure.
