I just bought AOE last weekend and i'm hooked! great graphics and sounds! Just going through the ascent of egypt campaign now so i can get some experience before i play on the msn zone (don't want to get crushed first time out!)
any comments?

The game is great, but if you want to play on the zone concentrate on Random Map after you learn the mechanics. Try to hit bronze in 15 minutes with 20 villagers on any map before hitting the zone. Remember tho, your GOING to get killed on the zone for the first couple of weeks, watch what happens and learn from your allies. If you see me on the zone (Br8kUN2) i could show you some basic build patterns and how to play the game...

it really depends wot kinda game u enjoy.if u prefer random map(stone age start default res)i think picking a chariot archer civ (assyria hittite shang) and learning how to play them is the key.probably the easiest civ to learn is assyria(im talking aoe not rise of rome)because i never knew the power of a mass chariot archer army was until i started playin on the zone.
