Lastly, there are tons of new units and buildings, such as Siege Towers, Imperial Camels, Slingers, Boyars, Elephant Archers, Stables (for Americans), Fire Towers, Palisade Gates, Trade Workshops, and Quimper Cathedrals. There also tons of bugfixes that come with the expansion as well, most particularly dealing with Windows 7 compatibility. In total, there are five new civilizations consisting of the Italians, Incas, Indians, Slavs, and Magyars. The expansion also adds support for resolutions up to 1920×1440, whereas Age of Empires II only supported resolutions up to a measly 1280×1024. It introduces new campaigns, maps, units, and entire civilizations, like the Magyars, Incas, and Italians in order to offer more variety and different outcomes in the 13-year-old strategy game. If you still play the Age of Empires sequel (and we can’t blame you), the expansion is available now for download at no cost.
