Age Of Empire (Aldeana)

La Mujer del Age Of Empire. Podía ayudar a asentar una ciudad, juntaba piedras, oro, madera, cazaba y si se acercaba el enemigo tomaba el arco, y en sus tiempos libre era la madre de 60 aldeanos. *Mujeres de antes.

New Civ Conept: The Umayyad Dynasty!

Hi folks! I've just brainstormed a civ idea of something akin to the Abbasids but takes the town center shenanigans to a whole new level. Introducing non-other than the historical antithesis of the Abbasids, the Ummayyad Dynasty.

This is the dynasty that stretched the Caliphate to its greatest extent, stretching from Spain to India, making it one of the largest medieval empires in the world before they were overthrown by the Abbasid Revolution.

The civ might not be fully fleshed out with specific stats and balancing, but the core ideas are there.

The historical themes I wanted to cover were the following:

- Their establishment of Islamic Beureucracy through specialized beureus (Diwans)

- Their governance over large swathes of people's (Dhimmis)

- Their Qadis that combined islamic jurisprudence and administrators

- The Translation movement that sought to gain knowledge from foreign texts (Greek, Latin, Indian, etc)

- Their eventually evolution into both Al-Andalus and the Abbasids.

As detailed in the diagram above.

What do you guys think?

Noob and no Idea how to play.

Hey Everyone!

Me myself(AoE1) just spawned in someone’s Steam library. He bought me today, but that dude has no idea how to play with me! Can u help me to explain how the game works, how to play and stuff? I already tried, also tried to communicate through the narrator, but he just doesn’t care… I let him win a few times, he doesn’t seem to know why, then he closed me. He didn’t made it far to be honest and only tried like three modes as Egypt…

Ok, jokes aside, can someone please explain me the game?

Help with the game AoE1

Hi there,

I just got Age of Empires 1 today, and honestly… I have no idea what I’m doing.

I tried playing a few games as Egypt, but I feel like I’m just randomly clicking stuff. Sometimes I win and don’t even know why, and other times I just quit because I’m completely lost.

I don’t really understand what I’m supposed to focus on early game, how to build up properly, or what strategy I should even be going for.

Can someone explain the basics to me or give me some beginner tips? 😅

[QUESTION] This is mostly relevant to City Builder games where design is more important. Does anyone else take a step back and admire the layout of their city, the building designs, the positioning between the buildings and so on?

The city builder game that I play the most is Caesar 3 and sometimes Sim City 4.

But I remember that the RTS games that really made me admire the layout and building designs are the Age of Empires series, especially when you literally see the buildings 'upgrade' when you advsnce to a new age or see the difference in the buildings' designs between the different civilisations/races.

The thing that actually made me be attracted to Caesar 3 and even the older Age of Empires gamea (including the Age of Empirrs 2 DE which is still popular) is the old pixel design, where even though there was limited hardware, the designs were carefully crafted to appear unique.

In most playthroughs, I tend to neglect exactly where to place the buildings because the ones that I need to place them depends on where they are needed the most like houses farms, the markets, the barracks, the castles and so on.

Some multiplayer games neglect the necessity of a perfectly designed city because you need to place buildings to use them as walls or make them in close proximity to your enemy for proxies or cheese tactics.

So the building layout starts to look like a mess, and this makes me feel a bit uneasy.

But when I sometimes feel like the layout makes sense, (especially when when the single player games where you load into a pre-designed layout where most of the buildings are already built and you see other things added in like the roads and so on) I do not know why, I feel this certain sensation of comfort whenever I look at the positioning of the building and who they are designed individually and combined with how they look alongside other buildings and they make me feel like I am putting the puzzle pieces just at the right place and it almost like a perfectly pieced together painting where everywhere fits and I feel like I am a pro designer.

Again, most skirmishes or single-player missions (but mostly multi player) force me to adapt and place the buildings where they make sense the most.

But when I manage to have just the right layout, I feel this sense of comfort when the layout feels just right and I feel more at peace, so to speak
