    You could actually get laser boys, nuke gunners, and machine gun cars in the first title too!

        yeah, in aoe1 there’s a laser gun guy (“photon man”), a car that shoots rockets, archers that look like trees when standing still and can walk on water, and a catapult that fires cows

          mind: blown

          I need to look into that. Is that in original and how it translates to remasters?

            did they ever remaster the first game? don’t think it’s in the sequels anyway

              DE did cover it too.

              On August 19, 2019, Age of Empires: Definitive Edition re-released with a new client on both the Windows Store and Steam, with cross-play available between the two platforms. Existing Windows Store players need to manually download the new client in order to receive game updates and multiplayer compatibility. At the same time, Age of Empires: Definitive Edition has also become available through Xbox Game Pass for PC.

              IIRC AoE2 had like three remasters: HD one, DE and something else. AoE had at least one of those.
