Looks very nice. Hopefully it'll be better than AoM too.

I see your friend didn't know about trebuchets?

Yeah, that always used to happen to me too. It sucked for 4 on 4 matches. One time, I dis-connected but somehow when I re-connected I was still in the game!
And Zone works fine for me.

It was terrible for me. Lag all over the place. Still brilliant fun mind. But still very laggy. Now I have a computer that can actually run it, and MSN Zone decides to not want to work.... I hate computers :(

You could send Arbiters (is that right?) out on their own and they would be fine, but you would need about 50... I prefer sending out many monks to convert everything in sight.

I have a 600Mhz processor, 128Mb of RAM and no graphics card, still.
It runs fine though.

I had that problem for the first few years of AoE II :(
Also the fact my computer had 500Mhz CPU, 128mb RAM, and god knows what graphics card.

You don't send them in on their own.

Ah, I remember the time I was playing my mate over the net, and he sent in his entire army to try and wipe me out, I rang the bell and all my villagers ran away into the town hall and my castles, and I slowly wiped them out.
Then I brought my 100-strong Paladin army oyut of hiding and assaulted him.
We never finished the game though, as my net connection disconnects after 2 hours.
:-(
Damn 56gay.

Wow, the game looks great.
Whens it out?
Should have a brand spanking new PC for this soon, yay. I always seem to get a new PC just before the release of a AOE game.

Oh, and teh chinese archers were the best.
They fired 3 arrows for every arrow fired by other archers, and once you've got all the blacksmith upgrades, that = rawk!

And rightly so, it's basically just "who can build untis the quickest and get the other killed with minimal villagers required.
Random battle is much much better.
