Introduction
After the unsuccessful first attempt, the second try of the #1 round for the Age of Empires 2 - 
Earlier today I played against 
Game 1 - Highlands
According to the rules, the first game was played on the map Highlands - an open area with lots of wood and the possibility of rivers.
It turned out we had one in the middle, so I decided to wall up the crossing and go for some ships.
Since there was no way through the middle and I had control of the river, I decided to sneak in some archers with a transport ship and attack from behind enemy lines.
This actually set me up for the win. After I had killed some villagers plus his army, I decided to make an ultimate push by placing a castle directly in his base.

So the match ended 2-0 in my favor - "good game" once again
Now I am excited to see who wins between
