Hmm. Where do I start. First of all does any one play AOE 2.

It's one of my favorite games...

Moved to the correct place

I loved AOE2, lost my CD now though. I played Celts loads though, woad raiders were devastating at hitting enemy towncenters.

Teutonic knights were devastating too... Maybe a bit too slow, but they had loads of hit points and good attack...

I've never done much real mapping... I've used the map editor to make huge scale battles :)

I've always hated the easily spammed castles. I hated those games that when I thought I had a respectable army, I see the goddamn 5-wall defended by castles and towers. Plus, for some reason, my micro sucks, especially in AoE2. Besides from that, I still love the graphics, and the gameplay in general, right till the third age.

From memory, trebuchets can be spammed fairly easily as well as castles.

I sucked at defending them. I think I actually never spammed, I always had armies counting of 30 this-kind-of-soldier, 30 that-kind-of-soldier, and so and so forth. I couldn't abide having more than 3 trebuchets, as it wasn't historical nor nice looking.

Might be the fact that I didn't like that part of the gameplay, as I never spammed the way it had to be spammed
