Features
- Many of you not only shared the last time you invited everyone over for a LAN party, but you also asked how to create a LAN game in AoE II HD. Below are the quick and easy instructions on how you host a local game for you and your friends so you can enjoy low ping.
- Dec 11, 2019 Actually HD AI is pretty ♥♥♥♥♥♥ now. It never builded walls in HD before, it always spammed units like crazy in castle age and now it does not. Also it always takes it forever to go from castle age to imperial age. When I was playing 2v2, with HD AI vs 2xDE AI on Hard, DE AI beat it easily.
