Empires into a new era of world domination.
The Age of Empires: The Rise of Rome is the addition to the mostly
anticipated strategy game Ages of Empires. The new series have consists
of new technologies such as Logistics and Medicine. The Age of Empires

Units are the key in playing Age of Empires. Age of Empires has an
innovative design of troops such as action of the troops. The list of
the units can be found from your game manual. But I have also added the
stats of special units such as animals, trees and berry bushes and the
elite special troops!

________________________________________________________________________
In the instruction booklet, there is no groups being assign to
Villagers. Priest is considered as a military unit. I have try to
figure a suitable group for them and decide to place them under the
Miscellaneous Group. These units are very important as they could does
something which other units can't do. For example, the villagers can
gather materials such as Food, Wood, Stone and Gold [food is an
exception whereby you could have fishing boats to do so]. The Priests
are very important as they could heal hit points of units, thus saves
you resources from making more units.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
[2 - 1 - 1] VILLAGERS
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Age: Stone
Prerequisites: Build Town Center.
Cost: 50 food
Hit points: 25
Attack: 3
Armor: –
Range: –
Speed: Medium
Create at: Town Center
NOTES:
Villagers can be assigned different tasks (builder, farmer, fisherman,
forager, gold miner, hunter, repairman, stone miner). Hunters and
villagers used in combat have increased attack strength.Researching
Stone Mining increases stone mining efficiency. Siegecraft increases
stone mining efficiency and allows villagers to destroy walls and
buildings. Gold Mining increases gold mining efficiency. The Wheel
increases speed. Jihad increases combat strength.
TIPS:
- Villagers are very important as they possess great importance in
gathering materials such as food, wood, stone and gold. That's your
criteria in have the villagers as the main population.
- Assign them in 4 main groups:
<> WoodCutter - for gathering wood for your population.
<> Hunter/Forager/Fisherman - for gathering food for your population
<> Stone Miner - for gathering stone for your population
<> Gold Miner - for gathering gold for your population.
- Build technology buildings such as Granary and the Storage Pit near
sources (forests, berry bushes, fishing sites, stone mines and gold
mines) to reduce distance from the sites.
Storage Pit could store:
-> Wood, Gold, Stone, Food [from fishing and hunting]
Granary
-> Food [from farming and berry bushes]
- Hunting Tips:
When hunting, have about two villagers to hunt a gazelle as it
will take one shot for it to go down. As you know you must attack
the hit point of the gazelle before you can start gathering food
from it. Try rear the gazelle near the storage site [Storage Pit or
your Town Center], to do this, just simply approaches them. You can
get up to 150 food from a gazelle. Refer to Gaia unit list for the
stats of the gazelle. Lions and crocodiles are rather strong [has a
total hit points of 20] but nab you only a mere 100 food. Elephants
are much better have more hit points and have a huge amount of food
about 300 food! Assign three more hunters to attack the Elephant.
Stock at: Town Center, Storage Pit [it depends which is closer]. The
hunter has four attack points
How to hunt? please refer to the CAMPAIGN section.
- Fishing Tips:
When fishing, have about three villagers and pick a shallow site [
normally you will find Shore fish, which will nabs 250 food and has
no hit points.] Fisherman has three atatck points. Villagers can
cross shallow waters, you will see partially submerged pebbles on the
ground. (crocodiles roam there too..). To do fishing in the seas,
have villagers building the Dock and create more fishing boats. Shore
fish is being collected at the faster rate compared to berry bushes.
Stock at: Town Center, Storage Pit. How to fish, refer to CAMPAIGN
section for more details.
- Foraging Tips:
When foraging, have three villagers and pick a berry bush to forage.
[It will be better not to have to many villager forage at a single
berry bush as it's kinda small ^_^;] Build a Granary near the
foraging site. [this will cut down the distance for the villagers
to bring to food to the Granary] Note that the food gather is
really slow.
- Farming Tips
I quite dislike this idea.. The gathering of food is slow and you have
to waste time in building a farm. I myself think that it will better
to have fishing boats out to sea. However farms are rather important
as the natural food resources are being used up eventually. So I would
suggest that you build farms late in the game.
- Cutting Trees Tips
When chopping wood, have aleast 10 villagers for a forest. Trees
found in the forest can give you 40 wood, whereas trees found standing
alone will gives you 75 wood. Building a Storage Pit near the forests
for easy traffic. Every tree has a total hit points of 25. It will
take more than 8 hits for a tree to go down, before you can start to
gather wood. Assign 4 villagers to a tree and you could gather wood
at the fastest speed. Woodcutters has three attack points.
- Mining Tips
When mining for stone or gold, I would recommend you to have a group
of miners for each resources which are rather important late in the
game. Stone could allows you to build defensive buildings such as
Watch Towers and Walls and Gold will allows you to research
technology. Just keep on replenishing your supplies.
NOTES:
A Priest heals friendly and allied units and converts enemy units. If
your diplomacy is set to Neutral or Enemy, your military units will
attack Priests from other civilizations. Researching Astrology allows
faster conversions. Mysticism increases hit points. Polytheism
increases speed. Fanaticism speeds Priest rejuvenation after
conversion. Monotheism allows conversion of enemy Priests and buildings.
Afterlife increases range.
TIPS:
- Priests generally are good units in combat and healing. Priest needs
to rejuvenate after a conversion is made. Have a Priest to convert a
new. Converting a unit could also allows you to exceed the population
limit. If the Priest has successfully finished a conversion, he could
still heal lost hit points.
- Never ever tried to convert units such as Chariots, Scythe Chariots,
Boats and definately not the Chariot Archers. These are rather hard
to convert. Tried to convert a Watch Tower and turns the enemies'
defense to your attack.
- A Priest can't heal oneself. Have them work in groups.
[ 2 - 2 ] INFANTRY UNITS
________________________________________________________________________
I quite like Infantry units as the combat is realistic where you will
hear the sounds of pain (when the warriors are hit). The infantry units
are best when comes to hand-to-hand combat and are quite cheap compared
to cavalry units. Early infantry units like Clubman are quite useless
except for the increased of hit points, but let's says if a villager has
an one-to-one combat, whom will win? Before you can start to building
military-technology buildings such as Archery Range, Stable, Academy,
and Seige Workshop, you must build the basic building Barracks. There
is now a new technology [in the expansion series, the Logistics] which
makes creating infantry units are more favourable compared to Cavalry
units. However they are quite weak against Cavalries [except the
Slinger, as they will withstand more damage compared to other units
which is +5 damage!]. All except for the Slinger are short-range [i.e.
that's means that they can't attack when far from an enemy]. Mostly
upgrades for infantry units can be found from the Storage Pit. Have
them in the frontline (except for the Slinger) while the Archers at the
back.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
[2 - 2 - 1] Clubman
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Age: Stone
Prerequisites: Build Town Center, build Barracks.
Cost: 50 food
Hit points: 40
Attack: 3
Armor: –
Range: –
Speed: Medium
Train at: Barracks
NOTES:
The Clubman is the weakest of the infantry units. The Clubman can be
upgraded to the Axeman. Other infantry units include the Short
Swordsman, Broad Swordsman, Long Swordsman, and Legion.Researching
Toolworking, Metalworking, and Metallurgy increases attack strength.
Leather Armor, Scale Armor, and Chain Mail increase armor. The Bronze
Shield and Iron Shield increase piercing armor.
TIPS:
- This units are quite weak as they possess the same attack strength
as the villagers! However their high hit points and the upgrades
could make them a more worthable uint when comes to hand-to-hand
combats when compared to the villagers. Have a one or two to guard
your base when early part in the game.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
[2 - 2 - 2] Axeman
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Age: Tool
Prerequisites: Build Town Center, build Barracks, upgrade to Battle Axe.
Upgrade cost: 100 food
Cost: 50 food
Hit points: 50
Attack: 5
Armor: –
Range: –
Speed: Medium
Upgrade of: Clubman
Train at: Barracks
NOTES:
The Axeman has more hit points and attack strength than the Clubman.
The Axeman cannot be upgraded. However, you can research the Short
Swordsman, which is stronger than the Axeman.Researching Toolworking,
Metalworking, and Metallurgy increases attack strength. Leather Armor,
Scale Armor, and Chain Mail increase armor. The Bronze Shield and Iron
Shield increase piercing armor.
TIPS:
- A better unit compared to the Clubman. This unit has an upgrade of
+10 hit points and +2 attack power. This unit is very destructable
when working in groups [when working adjacent with Archers Group]
------------------------------------------------------------------------
[2 - 2 - 3] Slinger (NEW)
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Age: Tool
Prerequisites: Build Town Center, build Barracks
Cost: 40 food, 10 stone
Hit Points: 25
Attack: 2
Armor: -
Range: 4
Speed: Medium
Special: +2 attack vs. archers, +2 armor vs. missile weapons,
Ballista, Helepolis; increased attack vs. walls and
towers.
Train at: Barracks
NOTES:
The Slinger is an infantry unit used to defend against early archer
and Watch Tower attacks. Bronze Shield, Iron Shield, and Tower Shield
increases piercing armor. Alchemy increases attack strength. Stone
Mining and Seigecraft increase attack strength and range. Note that
Slingers does not recieve armor upgrades from Leather Armor, Scale
Armor and Chain Mail.
TIPS:
- Never have infantry units attack the Cavalry Group, but an exception
is this unit. Have this unit work with the Archers Group. The
Slinger has an exceptable range of 4. Assign these guys behind the
walls. [Walls provide protection against infantry and cavalry attacks]
The Slinger can does +2 damage to Archers, kept this to your
advantage. However the Slinger has a mere 25 hit points which I will
recommend a Archer than this unit.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
[2 - 2 - 4] Short Swordsman
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Age: Bronze
Prerequisites: Build Town Center, build Barracks, research Short Sword.
Research cost: 120 food, 50 gold

The Short Swordsman is not an upgrade of the Axeman. It is a separate
unit with more hit points, attack strength, and armor than the Axeman.
The Short Swordsman can be upgraded to the Broad Swordsman.Researching
Toolworking, Metalworking, and Metallurgy increases attack strength.
Leather Armor, Scale Armor, and Chain Mail increase armor. The Bronze
Shield and Iron Shield increase piercing armor.
TIPS:
- The begining infantry unit that uses swords as its main weapon. This
unit is quite good and cheap [but it requires you to mine gold]. A
decent attacking power of seven, make this unit destructive when comes
to one-on-one combat. Never assign this unit against a Cavalry unit.
Have them work it groups.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
[2 - 2 - 5] Broad Swordsman
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Age: Bronze
Prerequisites: Build Town Center, build Barracks, research Short Sword,
upgrade to Broad Sword.

than the Short Swordsman. The Broad Swordsman can be upgraded to the
Long Swordsman.Researching Toolworking, Metalworking, and Metallurgy
increases attack strength. Leather Armor, Scale Armor, and Chain Mail
increase armor. The Bronze Shield and Iron Shield increase piercing
armor.
TIPS:
- Same cost of the Short Swordsman, but these units can be more
damaging, it have reached the Legion status. 9 attack points is
considered rather damaging and it is still upgradable!
------------------------------------------------------------------------
[2 - 2 - 6] Long Swordsman

the Broad Swordsman. The Long Swordsman can be upgraded to the Legion.
Researching Toolworking, Metalworking, and Metallurgy increases attack
strength. Leather Armor, Scale Armor, and Chain Mail increase armor.
The Bronze Shield and Iron Shield increase piercing armor.
TIPS:
- This unit is also quite good, a better Short Swordsman. Great if you
have them in groups and you will see them doing their worst.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
[2 - 2 - 7] Legion
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Age: Iron
Prerequisites: Build Town Center, build Barracks, research Short Sword,
upgrade to Broad Sword, upgrade to Long Sword, research
Fanaticism, upgrade to Legion.

NOTES:
The Legion is the ultimate infantry unit. The Legion has many more hit
points and more attack strength than the Long Swordsman. You must
research Fanaticism before you can upgrade to Legion.Researching
Toolworking, Metalworking, and Metallurgy increases attack strength.
Leather Armor, Scale Armor, and Chain Mail increase armor. The Bronze
Shield and Iron Shield increase piercing armor.
TIPS:
- The research may be a bit costly, but it definately worth it. You can
train tons of it. The new technology, Logistics have made this unit
a better one! You can train about 100 Legions if your population
limit is 50!
------------------------------------------------------------------------
[2 - 2 - 8] Hoplite
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Age: Bronze
Prerequisites: Build Town Center, build Barracks, build Stable, build
Academy.
Cost: 60 food, 40 gold

The Hoplite is the weakest of the elite infantry units. Upgrades include
the Phalanx and Centurion. Researching Toolworking, Metalworking, and
Metallurgy increases attack strength. Leather Armor, Scale Armor, and
Chain Mail increase armor. The Bronze Shield and Iron Shield increase
piercing armor. Aristocracy increases speed.
TIPS:
- The unit has a very high attacking power, but it was slow. Have the
Archers do the back firing while you watches these units approaching
them. -Very damaging- with being arranged in groups.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
[2 - 2 - 9] Phalanx
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Age: Iron

Metalworking, and Metallurgy increases attack strength. Leather Armor,
Scale Armor, and Chain Mail increase armor. The Bronze Shield and Iron
Shield increase piercing armor. Aristocracy increases speed.
TIPS:
- The upgrade does cost that much.. This unit is just a better Hoplite.
20 attack points can nearly finished off a villager. Again, have the
Archers do the firing as these units approaches the enemy.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
[2 - 2 - 10] Centurion
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Age: Iron
Prerequisites: Build Town Center, build Barracks, build Stable, build
Academy, upgrade to Phalanx, research Aristocracy,
upgrade to Centurion.

Hit points: 160
Attack: 30
Armor: 8
Range: –

Upgrade of: Phalanx
Train at: Academy
NOTES:
The Centurion is the ultimate elite infantry unit. It has more hit
points, attack strength, and armor than the Phalanx. You must research
Aristocracy before you can upgrade to the Centurion.Researching
Toolworking, Metalworking, and Metallurgy increases attack strength.
Leather Armor, Scale Armor, and Chain Mail increase armor. The Bronze
Shield and Iron Shield increase piercing armor. Aristocracy increases
speed.
TIPS:
- The ultimate destructive weapon of all army. It can reduce damages
with its starting 8 armor, thus costing the villagers does no damage.
These units can just remove any force from the face of the earth.
But it's slow speed, takes you to assign archers to do firing while
this unit is approaching its target..
[2 - 3] ARCHER UNITS
________________________________________________________________________
Archers are good units, in my own opinion. They work like the Centaurs
in Brigandine. They can attack enemies even they are at a far distance
from the enemy. Their speed are pretty average, but they can does
damage without getting hurt, thus consuming more hit points. Have them
at the backyard, firing arrows at the foe and watch the infantry troops
approaching them for a fight. As you are further in the game, you get
better units such as Horse Archers, which works like a sniper....

========================================================================
Here you will find a complete list of technologies found in the game. I
have also included my comments and added new technologies. I have group
them according the research center. Technologies that can be found from
the Storage Pit will be grouped under the group "Technologies from the
Storage Pit".
[3 - 1] TECHNOLOGIES FROM THE STORAGE PIT
________________________________________________________________________
Basically, all these technologies allows you to upgrade the attack
points and armor points for the military group: infantry, cavalry and
Archers. Certain technologies are required to allow you to get the final
units such as the Cataphract, Armored Elephant and Heavy Horse Archer.
These technologies are cheap and reaching from 100 food to the maximum
of 250 food. Certain technologies required gold which ranges from 50
gold to 400 gold. These technologies are extremely important when comes
to combat.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
[3 - 1 - 1] Toolworking
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Age: Tool
Prerequisites: Build Town Center, build Storage Pit.
Cost: 100 food
Benefit: provides +2 attack for hand-to-hand units.
Research at: Storage Pit
NOTES:
- This technology is vital as it can get you better technologies as
you advance through the next age. This technologies allows units such
as infantry units and Cavalry units [except for the War Elephant and
Armored Elephnat units]. This technology allows these units to
inflicit +2 damage. This technology will give the edge in combat.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
[3 - 1 - 2] Metalworking
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Age: Bronze
Prerequisites: Build Town Center, build Storage Pit, research
Toolworking.
Cost: 200 food, 120 gold
Benefit: provides +2 attack for hand-to-hand units.
Research at: Storage Pit
NOTES:
- This technology is accessible if you have researched Toolworking.
After you have researched Toolworking, the icon disappeared and will
be replaced by Metalworking. This technology actually nabs you another
+2 attack for hand-to-hand units. Added the effect of Toolworking,
this nabs a total +4 attack points for any infantry units and cavalry
units (except for War Elephant and Armored Elephant]
------------------------------------------------------------------------
[3 - 1 - 3] Metallurgy

NOTES:
- You must research Metallurgy before you can upgrade to the Cataphract.
After you have researched both Toolworking and Metalworking, the icon
of "Research Metalworking" will disappear and being replaced by
Metallurgy as soon as you approaches the new Age. Added the effect of
Toolworking and Metalworking, this nabs a grand total of +7 attack
points for any infantry units and cavalry units (except for War
Elephant and Armored Elephant)
