To celebrate the beginning of the summer holiday for us Finns and to mock those who still have school, a game of AOC will be played coming Sunday. Due to various reasons I do not expect a large turnout, the game will be played provided a minimum of three people join (a fourth moderate computer will in that case be added) Below are my suggested settings for the game, although I will be happy to negotiate them.
The game is scheduled to begin at 14:00 British time and 16:00 Finnish time.

Age of Empires II - Friday 18/05/07 game saved
The exciting game continues another day as Seleukos and Hajime fight to conclusion a battle between the conquered territories of Pysethus and lakupotko. The elephant armies of Seleukos fought to Hajime's gates, but seem to have run out of reinforcements against the seemingly endless tide of Hajime's troops.
Time will tell the result of this epic battle.

Age of Empires II - Sunday 13/05/07 results
The game started with a swift economic build-up by all teams. Seleukos and Hajime formed an alliance and conducted destructive raiding parties against lakupotko and Päränoid. As the game progressed the alliance advanced on two fronts, first destroy the kingdom of lakupotko and then that of paranoid.
Meanwhile the as of yet peaceful empire of Queen Harpus attacked the Empire of Pysethus with a mighty army of war elephants, and achieved unprecedented success, breaking through the defences and ravaging the countryside. The success of Harpus brought an end to her trading alliance with Seleukos and Hajime, and the suggestions of friendship shown between these factions in naval battles against Pysethus were forgotten as the alliance proceeded to obtain naval supremacy.
As Harpus withdrew from the lands of Pysethus, the ever persistent empire began to rebuild at an alarming speed but eventually destroyed despite resistance as the battle hardened armies of Hajime advanced from the west.
The Empire of Harpus sensed doom was nigh, and launched a surprise attack at Seleukos' garrison in the lands of lakupotko, and continued to stampede into Seleukos' mainland achieving
some success, but was defeated as Hajime's reinforcements arrived and as Seleukos mobilised his forces.
Meanwhile Hajime attacked Harpus from the north, meeting little resistance. The game ended with the destruction of Harpus' last elephant and cavalry brigade and the fall of their castles.
