So you just finished playing a game, and now you feel like having some fun,
maybe stomping some computers into oblivion using… “unconventional methods”.
You’ve come to the right place; like most games, Age of Empires II comes with it’s
own built-in cheats, that allow you to defy logic/gravity and gain some extra loot.
Be warned, however; these cheats are very addictive, and you might find yourself
spawning a few Furious the Monkey boys if you’re ever close to losing….

I Love the Monkey Head — Get a VMDL (Villager Male Dave Lewis), a naked, extremely
fast unit

“Q) Can you tell us the story for “Villager Male David Lewis”?
A) Tragically, David Lewis is a full-time employee of Ensemble Studios, and I am stuck working with him on my next project.”

“Q) Please fill us in on the VDML joke. Who is it making fun of? Why did that person always say that? Why is he naked?
A) I am honor bound not to tell. It commemorates an event at a convention last year. If you see me at E3, ask again, and I’ll direct you to the person involved himself and he can tell you if he likes. He’s naked because he WAS. (I.e., it’s for historical accuracy.)”
