Hear ye, hear ye!
After the conclusion of Rate the Black Mirror Episode, I'm itching to do another topic series and this one's as good as any. I'm sure we have a fair amount of AoE2 players here, especially the original version. I'll be doing this in order of release. You're free, however, to rate each civ based on whichever version of the game you're most familiar with.
Let's start with one of the OG archer civs.
