March onward through time itself to conquer your ever-evolving enemy. From muskets to plasma rifles and cavemen to cyborgs; Age of War (http://www.xgenstudios.com/play/ageofwar/) spans millennia to satisfy your deep desire to dominate.

Tesla Coils and music? Not an everyday combination, but when geeks are involved anything is possible. The Mario Brothers Theme (http://www.makezine.com/blog/archive/2007/11/tesla_coil_super_mario_du.html?CMP=OTC-0D6B48984890) and the Dance of the Sugar Plum Fairy (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Opf5jIukSBM) performed on delicate, expensive laboratory equipment

When the Japanese do wacky, you know it's going to be mind-bending fruit-salad-down-the-pants kind of wacky. Here's the most infuriating game of Tetris (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SYRLTF71Sow) ever created.

Ooh, lets take a look at this one.

Playing!
(Those wacky Japanese!)


Edit:
Woa, that was different. Good game, but still, weird.

Age of War= Already been posted by me in my awesome game thread. Are you guys just taking the games I post there and sticking them on the website?

Scornic: What difficulty is it on? If it's on harder, a cannoneer can easily kill all your troops with barely any health. It once killed 2 melee infantry AND didn't get hit with my special. Point is turrets save your ass big time.

No I mean I've won twice. I just can't win without getting to the last age and sending multiple super warriors.

Ion blasters kill easily. Set them up with a few other turrets and you wont even have to send units to win. They will kill one unit, then the shots that were fired just as that unit died will either hit the next unit in line, or the base itself.

Though - I am suprised the game passed to here - it usually end at gunpowder age!

The game is meh- I got to the gunpowder age before I had to run out, and I have no real interest to play it again.

It's got nothin on CivIII.

That's still last age. I want to figure out how to win before the last age.

It's impossible I think. My best guess would be to send out troops, use long range turrets, and use your special.


EDIT: Has anyone beat "Harder" mode yet? I always get die because the enemy has more money and stronger units.

On what difficulty? It's impossible to even get near the enemy base on harder mode.

All of these things are epic. Age of War was fun as hell.

Age of War was so damn great. I loved every single second of it. Evolving the base and army was my favorite part of the entire game. Sure, the graphics weren't "Next-Generation", but they were acceptable for a flash game. Defiantly going to play this game again in the future.

I've beat it three times today. I'm about to try again.

I can't seem to beat it actually, I make it to the final stage, but I just can't seem to build up a powerful enough army to destroy their base. Never make it through they're army.

Last stage: build an ion cannon and wait until you have enough money for a super soldier.
If the super soldier doesn't completely demolish their base, build a bunch of war machines, or another super soldier.

i jsut beat age of war in normal, i also beat it in hard, but i can't even get past the first age in imposible diffculty, why is there an imposible difficulty?
They should at least make it posible to beat, but i guess not....it has to live up to it's name instead :P

Go all defense. You can maximize the money you make in the earlier rounds by getting as many turrets as fast as possible.

When the game starts wait until the cpu's cavemen are 3/4 of the way to your base, then use your special. You get the most starting money this way. I then build a chicken launcher and only build units as meatshields so the base doesn't take hits while the turrets/specials do the dirty work. Sending units beyond the range of your turrets is suicide.

Once you get to military and have 2-3 rockets the game is pretty much over and you can't lose. Between the rocket turrets and the carpet bomb, its GGPO.

Impossible is a whole 'nother story, I've tried the same strategy and the farthest I've made it was to the gunpowder age. I just can't save enough money to build meatshields and turret upgrades.

In the last age, if you have 4 lasercannons you can just sit there. They won't kill the other base, and you can wait for them to get out super soldiers :)

That and the music is nice too, keeping it running :P

Yes, I love how music gets so intense.

the enemey never sends super soldiers, because if they did, the game would be too hard

I, like Salsport, have completed normal and hard mode, but I always die on impossible when I get to the army age.

I cannot get past the impossible difficulty, but I did beat normal and hard...

Any tips? I tried using the defense strategy...But I cannot get enough gold to build another tower holder, or a tower. My meat shields die so quickly...

I play all offense. I spend now cash on defense.
