Age of Empires II:
The Conquerors
Age of Empires II:
The Conquerors Expansion (sometimes abbreviated to AoC or AoK: TC) is the
expansion pack to the 1999 real-time strategy game Age of Empires II: The Age
of Kings. The Conquerors is the fourth installment in the Age of Empires series
by Microsoft Game Studios and Ensemble Studios. It features five new
civilizations (the Aztecs, Mayans, Spanish, Koreans, and Huns), four new
campaigns, eleven new units, twenty-six new technologies, new gameplay modes,
new maps and different minor tweaks to the gameplay.
Gameplay changes
The Conquerors
Expansion also introduced various new gameplay features and tweaks, including
the new game modes Defend the Wonder, King of the Hill and Wonder Race.
Additional maps, some based on real life geographic locations, and new winter
and tropical terrain textures were included. In-game, infantry are able to
garrison in battering rams, protecting the infantry while increasing the ram's
speed and attack, while ships are able to form formations for more effective
fighting. The graphics are left unchanged, but new civilizations have been
added such as the Spanish, Huns, Koreans, Mayans and Aztecs. In addition to new
units, the in-game upgrade lines have been extended to provide more unit
choices.
Micromanagement is
made easier, by an improved scripted Artificial Intelligence of villagers and
siege weapons. Villagers will now automatically commence gathering resources if
they build resource gathering sites. Wall construction has also been improved:
when assigning two or more villagers, they evenly spread out instead of working
on the same patch, and when multiple farmers are sent on one farm, the surplus
will start cultivating adjacent farms instead of idling. Siege onagers will not
fire if their attack is likely to harm friendly units. Additionally, a button
was added to the mill, which would allow farms to be paid for in advance, so
that when an existing one was exhausted, it would automatically be replanted.
Chat commands are introduced, in order to communicate more effectively with
allied computer players.
Campaigns
The Conquerors
Expansion adds four additional single player campaigns. These are based on
Attila the Hun's rise to power, Montezuma's defense against Hernán Cortés and
the adventures of El Cid. The fourth campaign, "Battles of the
Conquerors", is actually a group of unrelated single scenarios, each based
on a significant historical battle. These include the Battle of Agincourt, the
saga of Erik the Red, the Battle of Hastings, the Battle of Tours, the Battle of
Manzikert, the Battle of Lepanto, the Battle of Yamazaki, and the Battle of
Noryang.
