Latest patch info In the meantime, what can you do? DOH!?! Play the game! I didn’t slow down playing and I’m still having fun. Play with people you know. If you play on the zone or wherever, then quit the game if someone blatantly cheats. Never play with them again. Some people are still amazed when they ask me to play, or add them to my ICQ list and I refuse, because of past sins they commited. They say “Oooh! But I have changed.” Yeah right. They lost their chance when it was time, and my life doesn’t revolve around them. There is a legion of players out there and I have no problems whatsoever finding honest players. And what about if you lost to a skillfull cheater? Well, first you probably don’t know he cheated. Second, you had fun playing the game, which is the important part wether you lose or win. And third, the big loser is him because he cheats to win. Now if you want to get paranoid, and suspect everyone, that’s your right. Just remember that there are some good players out there. It’s not my fault if I bronzed at 13:30 mins with Egyptians because I dragged 4 elephants to my Town Center who was near, and I had 2 shore fish 7-8 tiles away, on a Large Islands map with default ressources. Relax a little, and enjoy the game. – Annoyed Omnivac
Mystery graphic Had some questions too about the “white” Bmps each pics is associated with. My best educated guess is that it’s a mask of some sort, so that when a villager will walk behind a tree instead of over it in the game. As for the players colors, simply use the blue ones you will see in most of the graphics. The game will take care of the rest and use the right players’ colors – Omnivac Scenario Contest Heaven Top Ten Downloads

This hold true for any units. Never send them alone, unless you’re cleaning a player without much opposition. Always use combined arms. As for the Elephants, they have been a major part of my armies since past October. My favorite civ is the Egyptians and an army of War Elephants, Chariots Archers and Priests can cover most situation in the game. The only problem is surviving the early bronze age, and it can be done. It’s my firm belief that it’s the player that makes a difference, not the civ. It is especially more apparent also in teams games, where I think you get the full enjoyment of the game. – Omnivac Story and Scenario Contests Scenarios Heaven Top Ten Downloads

Good news for downloaders Age of Empires’ gaming tips
War Elephants against Centurions is probably one of the most unknown facts in Age of Empires. Everybody have probably made some tests in the scenario editor, and saw the Centurion as a clear winner over the towering Elephant. While it’s true that a single Centurion will win against a single Elephant, the truth is 10 War Elephants will trample to death 10 Centurions. The keyword here is trample, as each Centurions will receive damage from 2-3 War Elephants, maybe 4. If you should ever engage in melee against elephants, do some quick maths and imagine that 3 times their number are charging towards you. – Omnivac Heavenweb is recruiting This is your last chance to apply. – Omnivac Story and Scenario Contests You have until April 30th for designing the best singleplayer scenario on the net.
