The single player campaigns include Montezuma, El Cid and Atilla the Hun, each giving you the chance to try out the new races and conquer neighboring civilizations and expand your empire. The inclusion of the tips and mission hints are great and should ease gamers who have been away from the game for a while right back into the action.The new civilizations also come with new technology which has to be researched, some useful, some not so useful, but that really depends on your playing style. Included are some excellent handy tips at the start of campaigns and I’ll admit my Age of Empire skills were rusty to say the least so these came in very handy. As this is an expansion, the fundamentals of the game are exactly the same as Age of Empires 2, no real major changes to control or commands have been added so everything will be very familiar to fans of the original. Age of Empires II was a smash hit, capturing the hearts of RTS gamers everywhere, so to keep the game alive, Ensemble Studios have released this expansion pack entitled Age of Empires 2: The Conquerors offering a whole load of new Age of Empire goodies.Although The Conquerors is called an expansion pack, there are a few changes to the original game included, not only do you get 5 new races to play about with, there are also subtle enhancements to the civilizations and gameplay from it’s predecessor Age of Kings.The game comes with 5 new civilizations, the Spanish, Koreans, Huns, Mayans and Aztecs and as you would expect each with it’s own unique ‘special’ units.
