I've been searching in the net to look for the "apolyton"
of the aoe series,
can anyone help me?

(yes, i'm as lazy as you are

)

Yeah, AOK:H http://aok.heavengames.com

Although thinking about it, that particular site in only AoK, there are *.heavengames sites for aoe, aom, aom2?, and so on. The heavengames network is to RTS as apolyton is to TBS.

No, sir.

AoE2.com - http://www.aoe2.com

You'll find several faces from Poly there too.

Covers everything Age. Plus IW, HeavenGames and Poly can't be compared.

That's a question Solver can answer.

Well, try the Colonization scenario, it's one of the best out there.

They are all well done and worth downloading. I would suggest playing a campaign or scenario from an historical period that strikes your interest, such as Rome, Persia, Carthage, Aztecs, etc. . .

Have fun!

ive never played red front, but there are some very good AOE scenarios, shows the potential for doing some very interesting historical things with AOE.

I dont remember the designed names, i'll have to go back and take a look, but the areas covered included Persian wars, and life of King David.

lord of the mark · May 5, 2003, 12:12

Best AOE scenarios ive played

The Persians Wars by Gordon Farrell (actually a series of 5 campaigns, each with several scenarios)

Scipio and the 2nd Punic War, by Imhotep

The David Saga, by Imhotep (2 campaigns)

Apparently Farrel and Imhotep are 2 of the best AOE scenario designers out there. After playing their scens its hard to take seriously people saying that AOE is not a historically serious game.

No

But AOE is available pretty cheao at least here in the states. While the base game is generally considered inferior to AOK, it might be worth it for the scenarios alone. If you are interested in early Spanish history the Scipio campaign might be particularly interesting.
