Introduction:
Hey guys, I'm ggteixeira, just a normal guy who enjoys playing games on his spare time including League of Legends, Arma 3, Age of Empires and Unturned. A few days back, myself and two other friends thought we'd try to play a match of Age of Empires 2: HD Edition with our own special settings. The three of us would band together onto one team while facing three independent AI players, all of them set as the Huns, and all of them set onto the hardest difficulty (In this game, the max difficulty is insane).
Game description:
-=-
Many villagers were saved after my sacrifice at the southern borders on Teutonic lands leaving me relieved, but the feeling was only temporary. Not soon after the skirmish fought out to buy the villager's time to escape, the Huns were seen approaching Teutonic walls, and then sieging them. The wall was swiftly breached as Hunnic cavalry began charging through, but were valiantly beaten back and the breach plugged with a handful of brave Teutonic knights.
But there were only so many knights and a seemingly endless supply of enemy Huns, crashing down into the breach wave after wave as they tried to get through. If the Teutons fell, I'd surely be next, so I acted quickly, sending a platoon of well-trained Spanish champions to help reinforce the Teutons in their attempts to repel the Hunnic attackers.
With my armies growing faster then I could feed, the demand for food skyrocketed. Back at my capital, forests were cleared and buildings demolished to expand out my farm lands and increase my supply of food. Everyone was put to work and not a single villager was left alone or idle.
Somewhere down south from the ashes of my destroyed Gothic allies, an army of Gothic spearmen rose to arms as they prepared for an offensive against the Huns that turned their city to rubble.
I watched in awe, as even a crippled nation stood strong against an enemy that outnumbered them ten to one. I was inspired, and so a Spanish call to arms was sent out as I amassed an army by the likes that the map had never seen before. The second generation of Inquisitors trotted forth, larger then before, better armed, and ready to avenge their fallen, accompanied by a team of powerful mortars and order of heavily-armored knights.
Enough was enough. Too many good souls had fallen to the Hunnic scourge, and so the time had come to take the fight to them. With orders to attack, my vast armies mobilized and sallied forth east towards unexplored Hunnic territories.
Contact was made as I had discovered the outskirts of the wall-lacking Hunnic capital. This was going to be easy, or so I thought, as I gave out the orders for my army to charge forward and into the city! They were met at a chokepoint by Hunnic horses, spearmen, skirmishers, and naval support from the river.
My army hadn't even pushed through the outskirts before being flanked, surrounded, and destroyed from all angles. Not myself nor any of my allies could believe what had just happened.
My allies mustered whatever they could and sent them east in an attempt to help reinforce my offensive. Everything we had was in this last push.
But it wasn't enough.
With our armies destroyed, our resources stretched thin, and the Huns still unstoppable, their hordes would soon sweep through the map destroying myself and all my allies, leaving nothing but fire in their wake. The game was lost.
I'd like to firstly go ahead and thank everyone for taking the time to both read and support this two part series, I greatly appreciate it. I had lots of fun playing the game and even more fun writing about it, and I hope you all had fun reading it too. I tried some new formatting on this post and if it's not too much to ask opinions on it below would also help greatly. Thanks once again and as always I hope y'all have a wonderful day .
