- dragontamer 4y agoI mean, Age of Empires 2 is a very historical game. Everyone knows that the Halberdiers of the Inca are pretty good especially when paired up with Inca's famous archers: their Crossbows and Arbalesters. /s These historical games have two ways of doing things. Staying historically correct (which is unbalanced... such as Hearts of Iron where Soviets + Germany will likely crush Poland in the first move every game), or you balance the game so that everyone has a fair chance like AoE2. But balancing the game naturally introduces significant ahistorical aspects. -------- AOE2's historical campaigns are pretty good though, and somewhat representative of famous battles throughout history.
