re-discovered this series recently, i've been hooked on AofE 3 the past few days
easily the best of the series, although i loved the second one-liked spamming elephants with the Persians
what are your best memories of this series?

Listening to them talk in their funny fake languages and chop down trees

AoE 2. Can't remember what country I was but I played this long death match (? the one with the huge amount of resources anyway) and had this one Camel rider that survived all these fights. I know this as he was a rider that I accidentally created, and refused to create any more so I would know which one he was. He became a sort of 'general' that went into all these battles and won every single one, even in 50/50 battles.
Anyway, take down one of the rival nations, bringing what remains of my troops back to my monks, when a lone archer who must have been chasing a scout or some other horse rider and lost them in the middle of no where, and, since my camel rider was coming back from battle and was low health, killed him. It was awful

Amazing game series!
Some of the cheat codes were hilarious; the e=MC2 Trooper who fired nuclear weapons at buildings was the best.
