what's wrong with the mangudai?

I don't know.

Maybe without the cloak he looks rather unimpressive.

Maybe I'm the only one who sees it.

As a huge AoE fan, this project is must-support for me! The buildings are looking great even on their own, but the level of detail and likeness to their game counterparts is amazing. Great job!

Awesome! Glad to see someone else from Heroica likes AoE. If I had any connection to speak of I'd play you over the weekend.

No war elephant?

Since I didnt have any expansions, I cant identify them all, but most are instantly recognizable.

He also left out the Korean War Wagon, but I don't think that should ever have been a unique unit anyway.

The Jaguar Warrior (Back Row, Far Left), Tarkan (2nd Row, Far Right), Plumed Archer (3rd Row, 2nd Left) and Conquistador (Front Row, Far Left) are from "The Conquerors" expansion.

Thanks, but I thought the guy in the 2nd row far right was the Mameluke? I guess you meant 3rd rown far right, which I originally thoght was the Mangudai, which I guess would rather be 2nd row 2nd right...

Another addition: Special Units

Ok, first row front, from left to right: Conquistador, Teutonic Knight, Janissary, Berserker, second row; Samurai,Plumed Archer, Mangudai, Mameluke, third row; Chu-ko-nu, Throwing Axeman, Huskarl, Tarkhan, fourth row; Jaguar Warrior, Longbowman, Cataphract, Woad raider.

Another addition to the set, trebuchet:

It's Richard the Lion! He's attacking!

Perfect, its suitable for normal castle sets :)

Great unpacked trebuchet. Thanks to this project, I've installed the game again and am going back through the campaigns.

That trebuchet is awesome. Keep building such nice stuff for it and you'll soon hit 10'000 supporters!

Great work! Always loved this game and you have done a great job bringing into the world of bricks.

Awesome work, but I do think the mounted unique units should be accompanied by their noble steeds.

In addition to the War Wagon and Elephant, the other unique units that are missing are the missionary, the long boat, the turtle ship and the eagle warrior. The Janissaries also didn't have the hats in the release version of the game.

One last point, your use of the Ice Planet 2002 saw blade for a macuahuitl is simply brilliant.

Since AOE II is on the verge of surfacing in HD format, this would perfectly complement the video game. There is a generation of old youngsters (like me) out there who are thrilled by the alarm of an attack to the town center.

Applause goes to you Artizan for the effort you have put in!!!

Congratulations...!!!

On the verge? It's been out since last year. There's an expansion (the Forgotten) as well (it was at first a fan-made mod but it became popular and then it was made an official expansion.) It's great and I advise everyone to get it :)

Supported! Loved this game too! I think I'm going to have to pull out the old copy and give it a runthough...

Thanks for the great idea, and i hope to see it in bricks!

Ooopppsss!!!! I only remember reading about its release some time ago and it hasn't been released here either. I should check amazon. Thanks for the reminder.

BTW, I supported it, too.

thanks, everyone. Just to let you know, we have passed the 1000 barrier some time ago, current supporter number is 1400+

I've never played Age of Empires before but these look awesome. I'll support them.

Very good inspiration to MOC! It could be an excellent source of bricks for castle lovers. I can imagine that was cool do this project in LDD.

Artizan,

I'm not sure if you will see this, but I was wondering if you might be willing to send me the list of bricks for the town center? I was a big fan of the AoE series so I think it is fantastic and I am interested in trying to build it. Please send me a PM if you would like to discuss.

Nate

Is there a way to get the .LXFs for these builds? I'm going to create Cuusoo account and support the heck out of this project!

Awesome job really like the idea. I wish you luck to push it forward.

can u post some bigger resolution pictures i want to see how this palisade is made in front of the "wall"
