What an epic game that was! I did not play it as much as Age of Mythology, though I nevertheless spent many hours playing it online (in the summer of 2005). I did acquire Age of Empires III, but was not playing video games as much by the time of its release, though the relatively little time I did spend on it was thoroughly enjoyable; I very much like the game's historical setting and attention to detail in that regard.

I loved that game it was my favorite until its standing was replaced by medieval total war.

Dude, how did I miss this thread? Heck yes I remember Age of Empires 2. I used to play this all the time with a few friends (Conquerors Expansion). One of the best games ever made.

The expansion was amazing. I couldn't go back after getting used to it.

"O MARY, conceived without sin, pray for us who have recourse to thee."
"Teach them that just as there is only one God, one Christ, one Holy Spirit, so there is also only one truth which is divinely revealed. There is only one divine faith which is the beginning of salvation for mankind and the basis of all justification, the faith by which the just person lives and without which it is impossible to please God and to come to the community of His children. There is only one true, holy, Catholic church, which is the Apostolic Roman Church. There is only one See founded in Peter by the word of the Lord, outside of which we cannot find either true faith or eternal salvation. He who does not have the Church for a mother cannot have God for a father, and whoever abandons the See of Peter on which the Church is established trusts falsely that he is in the Church." - Pius IX, Singulari Quidem.

I mainly used to make up my own terrains, and battle my mate over LAN.
In the editor, there was Robin Hood themed stuff. Does anybody know if there was a Robin Hood part of the actual missions etc in the game?
I completed Barbarossa, and started Joan of Arc but that was about it. Oh and tried a bit of the Genghis Khan one but didn't get far lol.

Unless the Lord God had been present in your spirits, all of you would not have uttered the same cry. For, although the cry issued from numerous mouths, yet the origin of the cry was one. Therefore I say to you that God, who implanted this in your breasts, has drawn it forth from you. Let this then be your war-cry in combats, because this word is given to you by God. When an armed attack is made upon the enemy, let this one cry be raised by all the soldiers of God: It is the will of God! It is the will of God! Genesis XXVII:iii-iv Take thy arms, thy quiver and bow, and go abroad:and when thou hast taken something by hunting, make me savoury meat thereof, as thou knowest I like, and bring it, that I may eat: and my soul may bless thee before I die. Si hoc signum legere potes, operis boni in rebus Latinis alacribus et fructuosis potiri potes! "You are the ones who are happy; you who remain within the Church by your Faith, who hold firmly to the foundations of the Faith which has come down to you from Apostolic Tradition. And if an execrable jealousy has tried to shake it on a number of occasions, it has not succeeded. They are the ones who have broken away from it in the present crisis. No one, ever, will prevail against your Faith, beloved Brothers. And we believe that God will give us our churches back some day. " - St Athanasius BEST ART INSTRUCTIONAL EVER: http://www.homestarrunner.com/sbemail58.html˙sǝɔıʇslos ʎolǝʌɐs puɐ ɹǝɥʇɐǝʍ ǝƃuɐɹo ǝɥʇ ʇnoqɐ llɐ s,ʇı *Pray for the canonisation of Archbishop Marcel Lefebvre*

I remember that game!
I used to play it all the freakin' time when I was a kid.
Probably the second best RTS game next to Warcraft II, at least of those I've played.
