Age of Mythology
From the Publisher...
Age of Mythology, the tremendously popular real-time
strategy game from Ensemble Studios and MicroSoft, gets the Eagle Games
treatment!
Players control armies made up of warriors, priests, heroes, and mythical
creatures from ancient Greek, Egyptian, and Norse mythology. They gather
resources, which allow them to create buildings and armies. Special buildings
are required to allow players to build new army types and improve the abilities
of their units. Battles are resolved with a unique dice and card system that
keeps the action moving. You get all the fast-paced action of a real-time game,
with real 3-D pieces, and face-to-face gameplay!
The ultimate real-time strategy game jumps off the screen and onto your
tabletop!

| The best game that Eagle Games makes. It is a bridge between Euro-economy-builder and American-war, and satisfies on both counts. The minis are incredible and the play is deep with dozens of different strategies. Plays with three players better than any game I have, including Wyatt Earp. |

| Nice components, detailed miniatures and a good game play mechanic which happens to work much like Puerto Rico. However, don't play it with Puerto Rico in mind, this is a different game. |

| Great production value, this game is full of great looking bits. At it's core this is a civ light game, if you can get past the somewhat slow combat mechanic this is a fun game. |

| This is a great hybrid, serves its license well (in terms of a civ-building real-time strategy game), is pretty thematic, has screw-your-neighbor and military aspects, different paths to victory...I really dig this game. Heavily underrated. |
| This game is worth getting for the components alone - you get about 300 (!) small but nicely sculptured miniatures based on mythology. The game itself is a grand strategy game with various routes to victory and simple but sufficient rules. It looks amazing when setup due to all the minis. |
| Great game that can be beaten with a variety of strategies, allowing everyone to have their preferential/unique play style. |
