Description Edit | History

From Eagle Games -website:

Age of Mythology, the tremendously popular real-time strategy game from Ensemble Studios and Microsoft, gets the Eagle Games treatment!

Players control armies made up of warriors, priests, heroes, and mythical creatures from ancient Greek, Egyptian, and Norse mythology. They gather resources, which allow them to create buildings and armies. Special buildings are required to allow players to build new army types and improve the abilities of their units. Battles are resolved with a unique dice and card system that keeps the action moving. You get all the fast-paced action of a real-time game, with real 3-D pieces, and face-to-face gameplay!

The ultimate real-time strategy game jumps off the screen and onto your tabletop!
A game of epic proportions...

  • 38 Unique Sculptures
  • 290 Stunning Miniatures
  • 3 Cultures (Greek, Egyptian, Norse)
  • 150 Wooden Resource Cubes
  • Easy to Learn Game System
  • Deep, Flexible Strategies

In Age of Mythology, you will:

  • Explore the world, claiming production sites (farms, gold mines, lumber camps & temples)
  • Gather resources
  • Build structures that give you advantages in production or battle
  • Recruit armies of mortal warriors, mythic creatures and heroes
  • Face off against other cultures in epic battles

2 Squash's Battle Line Variant
This is an updated version of my previous "Squash's Battle Line Variant", which has been edited to correct the Wadjet's special ability (replaces the Pharaoh, NOT the Priest!). It is still a 5 page Microsoft Word document.

2 Battle board for Squash's Battle Line Variant
This battle board is meant to be used with Squash's Battle Line Variant. (In downloadable file format: http://www.boardgamegeek.com/file/info/32375 In thread format: http://www.boardgamegeek.com/thread/312322) It is a single image that, for best results, can be printed then mounted on a thin piece of cardboard.

12 Unit reference sheets for all 3 nations
Do not fight another battle without these reference sheets! Back in 2006, BGG user Liumas went to a lot of effort to create some amazing and exceptionally helpful unit lists for AoM. I've taken those and added a whole lot more information to them so that you can see at a glance everything you need to know about your own nation's units as well as the other players' units. For a full explanation, see the following thread: http://www.boardgamegeek.com/thread/311878. There are 6 jpg images within a zip folder. I recommend printing out each nation's sheets back to back on sturdy card stock so that you end up with a single reference sheet for each nation.
