Battles of the Conquerors
February 25, 2007 Filed in: Video Games
Today, I completed the last campaign from Age of Empires II: The Conquerors. This so called Battles of the Conquerors wasn't really a unified campaign like the other ones included in the game. Instead, it was a series of historical battles played out in eight individual scenarios. I played them chronologically: Tours (732), Vindlandsaga (1000), Hastings (1066), Manzikert (1071), Agincourt (1415), Lepanto (1571), Kyoto (1582), and Noryang Point (1598). I really enjoyed the variety of these scenarios. Playing everything from French and English to Japanese and Korean to Vikings kept things very fresh. The game was not only fun but quite educational as well.
Age of Empires II: The Age of Kings and The Conquerors will be staying on my hard drive for a while. It is an absolute classic and certainly one of my all-time favorites.
