Concentrating on the late medieval period, Age of Chivalry: Hegemony replaces or significantly alters each of the civilizations in the original game, while adding a number of new ones, allowing the player to control Central and Western European states. Many new units and technologies have been added and gameplay dynamics have been changed considerably in this complete overhaul of Age of Empires II.

Age of Chivalry: Hegemony 2.03 is now available, adding fully redone Italian architecture and a host of other changes!

Posted by on

While Age of Chivalry already offered a large number of Italian factions - from the famous city states in the north, Milan, Venice, and Florence, to the kingdom of Naples in the south, and the Papal States at its centre - previously their architecture was a little out of place, mostly using the old mod Rome at War as a basis. Because this mod was based around ancient Rome, rather than medieval Italy, the building set was more than a little jarring. However, in this new release you will now find a fully revamped roster of Italian buildings, based on Italy's rich medieval architecture.

In recognition of this diversity in building styles in medieval Italy, different Italian factions will also have uniquely different architecture, so that you should be able to see who you are fighting simply by looking at their city. This unicity manifests particularly in town halls, churches, castles, and houses.

In addition, this release includes modest balance changes to address problems, and tweaks to improve the gameplay atmosphere. There are also some new unit graphics - for instance for the Neapolitan Almugavar, the Austrian Doppelsöldner, and the Italian and German Men-at-Arms - and a wide array of new objects and some animals for the scenario editor, allowing you to create ever more detailed maps.

Yes, you can find it in the Readme that's directly in the zip file. :) It's quite long so I didn't want to post it all. (It also contains information on previous versions.)

The "Age of Chivalry" Campaign is awesome. But, the Exile is broken as well as the first scenario
