Review:
Age of Empires II is a fun game with historic backrounds. For example one minute you will be navigating Joan of Arc through british lands. And next thing you know you will be Joan of Arc on a horse about to attack a castle with 100+ soldiers. The campaign is very diverse and flexiable so you can start the Joan of Arc campaign then later start the other ones without skrewing the game up in any way. Singleplayer matches against computer are also nice with the game having 12 civilazation to play as or to play against. And I belive it has around 20 maps to play with. Well anyway you will get a lot of milage out of this game. Have fun conquering!
