I posted a thread about this a while ao, with links to the official AoE3 website.
The new preview says you can't play the natives, unfortunate really, but you can ally with them.
Interestingly the Ottomans are one of the nations in the game added as a "what if" nation, which peaked my interest considerably![]()

They've said on several occasion that theya re sticking very close to the AoE formula, so don't expect too many innovations.

I was speaking with a Dev on the AoMH site and he said that at the beginning they'd setup their entire way of gameplay very similar to the Settlers of Cataan board-game style. Then they went back and changed a bunch of things to give it a half-way between AoE style and Settlers style.
It'll be good I'm sure - ES has yet to thoroughly dissapoint me. AoM was a small let-down, but it was also great fun to play... just not as long of a staying power on it as AoK.

I hope it's far more complicated than Settlers of Catan. I still don't know why that game caught on so much, and even more why it caught on now and not about ten years ago.Originally Posted by Colovion

and of course it'll be more complicated - it's a video game, not a board game![]()

"Sit now there, and look out upon the lands where evil and despair shall come to those whom thou lovest. Thou hast dared to mock me, and to question the power of Melkor, master of the fates of Arda. Therefore with my eyes thou shalt see, and with my ears thou shalt hear; and never shall thou move from this place until all is fulfilled unto its bitter end". -Tolkien
Heheh. Well said. I hope they manage to make the gameplay a little more...strategic...otherwise, as pretty as the graphics are I don't see myself ever buying this.Originally Posted by DisruptorX
