    [GER] Tafelrunde #30: Christian ist ein Noob der Wüste

    Christian hat im vergangenen Monat endlich mal an einem Turnier teilgenommen: Noobs of the Desert 3! Dort hat er es bis unter die letzten vier Spieler geschafft und erzählt deshalb ein paar Anekdoten, unter anderem, wie unterschiedlich das Spiel wahrgenommen werden kann. Natürlich macht sich bei Felix und Christian auch ein bisschen die Angst vorm DLC breit: wird es gut, wird es meh... oder gar einfach zu viel? Wir haben es dieses Mal geschafft, eine ganze Stunde nur über AoE Themen zu sprechen und wünschen euch viel Spaß beim Zuhören! Felix & Christian ⁠⁠⁠Discord⁠⁠⁠ Musik: Joey Jojo vom offiziellen AoE II: DE OST.

    [ENG] Magazine Ep. #09 February 2026

    Welcome back to another episode of the Age of Empires Magazine featuring Daniela and Chris! January was all about the qualifiers of RB Wololo Londinium, so we’re gonna talk about that in todays show. Other topics include Team Vitality joining the scene, news of mismanagement in GL and what’s new in T90 Titans gold and silver leagues. We’ve also got official news previewing the new DLC and the Naval rework that we can discuss. There’s no franchise news apart from the DLC for AoE 2 releasing on the 17th of February, so after the News, we’ll head straight to some Emails and then the tournament outlook.

  5. [ENG] Civilizations #06: Poles

    17 JAN

    [ENG] Civilizations #06: Poles

    Today, we‘re visiting eastern europe and talk about the Poles. The Poles have been introduced to the game in the second DLC for the Definitive Edition in August 2021 together with the Bohemians introducing unique game mechanics and farm economy which I was very sceptical of when it got released but now believe to be one of the best designs decisions in the game. You'll be hearing me praising the civ design a lot in this podcast, when I go through all civilization bonuses, their unique techs, units and even buildings. They probably have the best campaign of the game, which if you haven't already, should defenitely give a go. The Poles are hard to master and had little impact on the eSports scene, yet I wouldn't want to change a thing about them. Well actually, one thing, but you'll find out when listening to the Podcast!

    [ENG] Magazine Ep. #08 January 2026

    Welcome back to another episode of the Age of Empires Magazine! Once again, I am joined by Daniela! We’ve got exciting topics to discuss, starting of course with the sixth edition of King of the Desert and a recent update with balance changes from the 2nd of december. We’ve also got a couple of Franchise News, because the South AmericaDLC has been announced for AoE II and is coming to the game in February 2026. As is the theme with our Franchise, if one game get’s something new, another game probably has something similar in store and that’s true for Age of Mythology and Age of Empires IV. We’ll finish up the episode with some emails and the tournament outlook for January 2026, where we’ll talk about the RB Wololo Ladder Qualifier and TTL Season 5. I’d also like to mention that we recorded this podcast just before the News about GL and their members have dropped, so there is no mentioning of that in this episode.

    [GER] Tafelrunde #29: Wie soll man da noch spielen?

    Macht euch bereit für einen Podcast, bei dem wir uns so richtig alt fühlen. Alles ist neu und unübersichtlich: AoE II verändert sich mit Phosphoru Rushes, Stand Ground Patrols und der Siegetower Meta. World of Warcraft ist überhaupt nicht mehr das, was es einmal war und ist kaum wieder zu erkennen. Und wenn Felix einfach mal ne Runde Hitman spielen will, scheitert er daran, weil er den Überblick über die verschiedenen Spieleversionen nicht bekommt. Christian hat wurde außerdem von Europa Universalis gemobbt. Klingt alles scheiße, aber lass euch nicht beirren, denn in Wahrheit haben wir gerade ziemlich viel Spaß mit unseren Spielen! Viel Spaß beim Hören! Felix & Christian ⁠⁠Discord⁠⁠ Musik: Joey Jojo vom offiziellen AoE II: DE OST.

    [ENG] Civilizations #05: Celts

    Well, this episode is all about the Celts. But who were the Celts, really? If you're asking the Devs, it seems the answer is: whatever was shown in the movie Braveheart! For a game drawing inspiration from history, the Celts do seem like the odds one out. Sloppy research, a lousy tutorial campaign and underwhelming tech tree make it hard for the Celts to really shine amongst the many civilizations in the game, despite looking back to more than 25 years of AoE II history. Of course, being an infantery civilization doesn't make things any easier. If it weren't for Hoang, maybe the Celts would've been completely forgotten. Well, don't shed your tears just yet, I'm here to save the day and tell you everything I could uncover about the Celts, including some fun facts from what the Celts were first invisioned by the Devs, before they became the Civ we know today. I hope you enjoy this episode!
