Is this article really necessary? Each one of the games has its own article ..and they are all more informative than this one. /shrug --Naha|^(talk) 23:37, July 16, 2005 (UTC)

• The article was created to avoid someone adding a large chunk of information on Age of Empires, which is a major problem within some articles of debut titles, where the focus ocasionally goes to the series themselves rather than the first game (see Talk:Age of Empires#possible merge for what made me start the article) ^wS;✉ 14:40, 7 October 2005 (UTC)

[edit] aoe 4 & 5

Why does the part titled "aoe 4 and 5" have the main article as aoe3? Russian F 21:24, 2 June 2006 (UTC)

No it does not...

[edit] __

Has anyone noticed the guy in the AoE V teaser look like Master Chief from Halo?

I personally think that Age of Empires 4 and 5 will be for real. Since my grandfather was in the war, he might be in Age of Empires 4! (Hey, that rhymed!) And if Age of Empires 4 and 5 are real, do you think that they will have expansions, just like the other Age of Empires games?

Why shouldn't they?. | AndonicO 10:08, 27 September 2006 (UTC)

Yes, I noticed it too. It might be Master Chief. If so, it could be connected to Halo Wars which was shown today at X06, since the developers are the same.

[edit] How to add to template

How do I add a game called Rise and Fall: Civilizations at War to the Age of Empires Series template? | AndonicO 10:10, 27 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] From the deleted Wololo article

In case anybody wants to add it anywhere:

Wololo is a popular term, sound and taunt in the Age of Empires series. In the original Age of Empires, priest units had the ability to convert an enemy unit to their own cause. During the conversion process, the priests would utter "wololo." The sound became very popular in the Age of Empires community and was used as a taunt in multiplayer battles. In every subsequent Age of Empires game to date, the original recording of wololo has been available as a taunt. Yomangani^talk 12:59, 23 October 2006 (UTC)

Thanks for the text, I added it as a section to this article... TomasBat (@)(Contributions)(Sign!) 15:56, 17 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] AOE 4

That most certainly is not a WWII soldier, the M16 and helmet makes it all but certain that it represents a Vietnam War era soldier. Revising. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Timber Rattlesnake (talk • contribs) 04:08, 4 December 2006 (UTC).

[edit] Age of Mythology on the template

Recently, I found that the Age of Mythology games were removed from Template:Age of Empires series. I truly feel that it should be on there because, as this article states, "it has always been seen as the successor of Age of Empires II ". How does everybody feel about this? Thunderforge 05:10, 29 December 2006 (UTC)

I agree. —Nightstallion (?) 01:27, 13 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Image on the Logo of This Series

I think it would be great if we could insert an image which would be the logo for the series; as a matter of fact, I have got the image but just don´t know how to upload it; it would be great if someone who knows how were to do so OR if he/she could teach me how.

The image of the logo is the following:

I would really apreciate any help of any type...
