the expansion pack features 5 new civ's, maya, aztecs, huns, koreans,and spanish.each with its own unique buildings type(imagine mayas and aztecs builduings, cool)There are 3 campaigns and one pack of scenarios named battles of the conquerors, the campaigns are atilla the hun where you get to conquer gaul and then maybe even the whole rome, in el cid you must join forces with moors and fight against castilla and fight against fanatical berber horsemen, and last but not least, in montezuma you get to fight off thje invaders that are much better armed and shielded, can they defeat them, or will they fall before the invaders, in addition to that the game will have 11 new units,conquistador,jaguar man,tarkan and 26 new technologies including a special technology for each civilisation. The villagers are now smarter,for example they'll start gathering wood after building a lumber camp, farm queing, you just give enough money to it, and villagers will build farms untill money run off.
Ram's are now transports, garrizon units inside it to increase speed and defend units inside. ship formations,you can also send commands to friendly computer players. and finally new temperature zones including tropics, and ice. That is a very interesting game...
What the heck?

Why on earth are people writing reviews of a game that isnt going to be released for a month? It makes no sense to me! Why did I give it 5 stars then? I love Age2 and this game isn't any different except with some cool extras that make gameplay more fun...
Mas historico que nunca!

Con las nuevas civilizaciones el juego se vuelve mas universal, esta expansion conserva el sentido historico de age of empires II y resulta en una gran experiencia cada vez que se juega. Se debe aprovechar tambien el libro de descripcion de cada cultura para aprender mas sobre ella y saberla utilizar para cada campo de juego. :)
The Conquerors is going to make a great game even better!

The 5 conqueror civs (Spanish, Hun, Korean, Aztec, and Mayan) were near misses to be put AoK in the first place. The devoplers made a great call by giving the meso-american civs (Mayan & Aztec) the Eagle Warrior, since they don't have cavalry. The Spanish's second uninque unit the Missionary is just right for them. The Korean Turle Ship rules the waves. The campaigns and new games will blow your top off. This is a must have for any RTS gamer.
Great addon for an already great game

I had a chance recently to try out this expansion pack for AOE2. It basically adds five new civilizations to the game, each with its own buildings, units and characters. Each are very detailed and add a lot of gameplay to this game. I have over played this game, so to me its not as impressive as it might be to some other players. None the less, it does give you some more hours of fun to see all the new goodies. If you love AOE2 you should definetly get this.

Age of Empires II: The counquerors Expansion Pack is an add-on to Age of Empires II. It simply ADDS-ON 5 new civilizations (Aztecs, Mayans, Spanish, Huns, and Koreans, total of 18 civs) and new technologies like a unique technology for each civilization (Chisese Rocketry, Persian Mahouts, etc.). New units will be added, like in the Americas, the Eagle Warrior as a substitute for cavalry (it's very fast) and in Europe the Halberdier as an advanced pikeman. There are also new worlds like "King of the Hill" and "Defend the Wonder". There are also Real wold maps of France, Britain, the Iberian peninsula (Spain), and even Texas! With the sme old good graphics and new and fasinating architecture this promises to be a great Expansion pack for already AOE & AOE2 lovers like myself!
Fun, to say the least!!

The Conquerors is a great expansion. With five new civilizations, new units, better game play... its just more fun. The reason I rated it 4 stars instead of five stars is because I think they still could have done more. yes, the new civilizations and units make the game more fun but its still the same game. Even though I took a star off the rating I would still buy this product. The age of empires: the conquerors is a great expanision, it makes the game more fun. heck, thats what expanisions are for arent they?
I am amazed.

I have played the original game AoK for hundreds and hundreds of hours. Playing it online is extremely challenging and a lot of fun, requires smart strategies and is simply one of the greatest online games i've played. The expansion adds more civilizations, more units, campaings and most importantly of all, balances several issues in multiplayer gaming. Overpowered units have now become balanced, as weaker units have been improved. All this makes for a more varied online gaming, as more units and different strategies can be used.
I find the balance they've created in AoE, AoE Rise of Rome, AoK and this new expansion in particular, incredible. This is what makes this one of the greatest online game series, in my humble opinion.
An awsome expnasion pack laoded with goodies

The x-pack adds 5 new civilizations, awsome new units and technologies, fixes many bugs and balances the game betetr overall in Random Map play. In DM Koreans seem to be a little strong, kind of like hitites in aok, if done right by an expert you can't beat them but overall in team play you see many civilizations including turks, goths, koreans, spanish, franks, huns, britons, and celts.
