Age of Empires Cheats For PC

  1. Build units beyond population cap

    Since the game engine only checks the population cap at the time of first ordering a unit, it's possible to go over the cap, by reaching 49/50 and then simultaneously ordering units from multiple buildings.

    This technique can also build more units than you have houses for.
