The Bayeux Tapestry unfurls before the player you will soon be at the heart of it. There is no better example of a perfect Age of Empires setting than in one of the earliest missions in the new game. Age of Empires turned players toward the past and compelled them with its bloody, battle-strewn vision. These historical figures were so much more absorbing than a typical sci-fi or fantasy setting I studied the Middle Ages at school because of them. I was Joan of Arc, protecting the Orleans Cathedral from the hated English I was Attila the Hun, letting Bleda, my murderous brother, die at the tusks of the iron boar. And I did, in a way: Even if the history itself was shaky (even then I knew that the Chinese invented gunpowder: why so few gunpowder units?), the passion for this history, told through gameplay, was infectious. Overall, this rush is very effective due to the speed of it but it can be quite predictable.When I was 9, my dad bought me a copy of Age of Empires II under the pretense that, since I refused to stop playing games, I might at least learn something about history. If your enemy manages to mass up a few spearmen, add a range and make some skirmishers to counter them. When you are raiding, it’s a good idea to keep them on stand ground so that they don’t follow villagers to the town centre and get shot. Watch out for spearmen and continue to use hit and run tactics as you would with any scout rush and you should be fine. This means that you can go and raid their economy and kill villagers. With this build order, you should be able to reach your enemy base before they have had the chance to fully wall up. The AOE2 Mongol Scout rush at either 16 or 18 population is great on any open map, but really excels on maps with lots of boar and deer like Scandinavia and valley. Their civ bonus is that huntable food is collected more quickly that other civilizations and gives them a huge boost in food.
The reason that this build order is possible at 18 population is due to the Mongol civ bonus. This one is easier to do and still super fast. The 16 population scout rush is really tight and involves pushing deer to your town centre. This 18 population scout rush is only beaten only by the Khmer and the Mongol 16 population scout rush. The AOE2 Mongol Scout Rush build order is one of the fastest Scout Rushes in the game.
