Are there any good mods for age of empires 2?

[Go4Pro]

Like mods that add new factions or is set in a different time period or some sort of fantasy universe

I can't speak for HD (The Forgotten DLC was orginaly a mod that did just that).

For the disc there is Age of Vampires (total conversion for werewolves, vampires, witch hunters and stuff).

There is also a complete lord of the rings (the third age) conversion that was fantastic. Sadly these two mods as of to date only work with disc version.

No, codes been changed to much for it or at lease that's how I understand it at lease expressed by the Age of Vampires modding team.

whats PCM?

Most of those are already in the game already?? Some are not even civs, but states of bigger civilizations, also the Moors were Berbers

none of those are in AOK+AOC. Also even if some civs exists in HD expansion mods other features starting from:

-A completly new age, the Renaissance Age, with new units and technologies, has been added!
-A new resource, Experience, with an unique way to obtain it, has been added!
-The Mercenary system of the first version of the Portuguese Civ Mod has been expanded!
-A new gameplay feature for Real World Maps has been added: the Rare Resources system!

One mod I can heartily recommend for disc version is AGE OF CHIVALRY: HEGEMONY. Complete redesign of all buildings which look so much cooler, very europe focused.

you can convert aoe2hd to the disc version though to be able to use it as a base for mods, not all mods are compatible though, some installers check for a legit disc version (to deter pirates, but it will also mean that it wont detect the "hd modded to act like cd" version)

Thanks for the tips bro

if youd prefer to buy a cd version, i still see aoe2gold edition sold in stores for 5€ from time to time, shouldnt be much more expensive online^^

that means, aoe1 and aoe2 with the expansion for each, cd version expansion only though so not the new hd only ones
