    I just finished installing it, etc..and i spent a hour and half going through my first game. One of the personalities i had to fight with was Napolean :lol:

    I love it, and the graphics are awesome. I love the new ideas of the game such as:
    - ships can broad attack, and even create units now
    - all the new units & nations obviously
    - The 'road' leading through the map, and the trading post.

    I'm still trying to figure out the home base and card thing, but it seems very well done. I also like how they joined gold & stone into one thing, and ships can even grab 'coins'.

    Any other AOErs out there, and maybe interested in playing a few online games? I'm going to try and get that working right now, but i know i have trouble playing games on Zone because of my firewall.

    This game is awesome
    The units are great.
    - love the crossbows
    - the ships are really good
    - wood walls are fun to piss off the enemy on some maps

    The point of the cards is simple. It gives you bonuses for free. You get new cards for each age you enter. Some cards can be used more than once. For example for the first age, i forget the name you can get supplies of wood, gold or food or 300. You can use this any time you are able to get a shipment. It comes in handy. For the other ages you can only use the cards once so once you use it that is it for that card
