Special thanks to Ensemble Studios for implementing CSO.

I want to thank Schildpad (also known as Furby_Killer) for helping me test the various “Strategic Objectives” scenarios and for his important advice.
Schildpad’s help and feedback was most valuable.

I want to thank pftq for his great “Advanced Effects” that helped me enhance the AI to a new level, and to introduce the “Building Fixed Guns” feature.

I also want to thank somme for his brilliant “Villager Second Calculator” which I used for the free units balancing, and to kjn for making the screen shots for me.

I would like to remind everybody that the “Strategic Objectives” 1V1 Online Tournament has already started a week ago and that it will continue until the end of the month.
There are 15 additional prizes for this tournament including 5 copies of “AOE3: The Asian Dynasties” so don’t miss this opportunity and sign up here:

That is excellent. Free stuff for playing a great scenario! The objectives came at a great time when online play was not practical for me (to many pauses) and beating the hard computer was actually hard.

Thank you MosheLevi

Thank you guys,

It was fun for me to make these scenarios and knowing that other people have fun playing them is a very nice bonus.

For players that haven’t participated or haven’t won in the Strategic Objectives Challenge, I would like to remind you that the Strategic Objectives 1V1 Online Tournament is still going on and it has 15 more game prizes (including 5 copies of AOE3: TAD).
So you have another opportunity to win a prize.

So go and sign up for the Strategic Objectives 1V1 Online Tournament.
It’s not too late to do so.

Moshe,
Another great Challenge. Looking forward to the next set of Strategic Objectives. Keep up the great work. I just wish I was better at online play.

Thank you for your time and effort and of course the prize

This and the online ones are awesome! I love Strategic Objectives! Are you going to make a 2v2 Strategic Objectives? That would be amazing.

Quoted from Catabre:

Thank you Catabre for your kind words.

I would love to make 2V2 Strategic Objectives for all human players and for 2 human VS 2 AI’s.
However, that requires a lot of work so I would like to see some demand for it first so my time is not wasted.

So if I see that players keep playing these scenarios online and new players are joining them, then I will do it in the future.

So it’s really up to you guys.

By the way, I am planning to keep the “Strategic Objectives 1V1 ladder going after the tournament ends on October 31.
After that I will continue to give 1 game prize once a month via drawing.

In order to qualify to be in that drawing players need to play at least 1 game that month and be among the top50% of the players.

So go ahead and sign up for that ladder.

Can come now any day (if nothing went wrong). Moshe isnt really crazy (i hope), so he sent it with cheapest airmail. Then it takes 1-2 weeks iirc.

Just got back from a 10 day vacation.

Quoted from DarthLeon:

DarthLeon,

I haven’t sent you the prize yet because I don’t have your full name.
I sent you an email two weeks ago requesting to know your full name but I haven't got a response from you yet.
I will send you your prize as soon as I have your full name, so please respond to my emails.

-----

I mailed all the prizes two weeks ago except for a few of them where I didn’t have the complete mailing address with a full name.

US residents should have got the prize by now and for other countries it can take from 1 to 4 weeks for the prize to deliver.

Oh god, ok. Just a sec. I had told you in an email on 9/18, but I guess you missed it. I sent an email to both your addresses, just in case. The fact that you havent sent it yet is a bit releiving.

DarthLeon,

Thank you for your reply.

Perhaps I did miss it, but with hundreds of emails that is not surprising.
That is why I ask everybody to include all their information with every email they send.

In any case, I will ship you your prize soon.
