This i have been playing a lot lately, Its just so much fun. If anyone here wants to play you can download a piece of software called GameRanger
Which hosts servers for AOE I, AOE II, The Conquerors expansion and AOE:FE. In this modified version of the game you can play as a number of new races which all have their own unique technologies and special units etc.
The new playable races are: Slavs, Magyar, Inca's, Indians, and Italians.
I believe there have also been fixes to some mechanics in the game, although i don't know which, and i really like the new races models ( especially Slavs, who have an entire new tileset after Feudal age). The unit models have also been nicely done as well. I also think its note worthy how historically correct these new races are, with their unique techs and units.
If anyone here wants to play i think we should, perhaps with some difficulty due to the connection between England and Australia
. I'd say its worth a shot though.
