Liquid Fire Studios
Liquid Fire Studios pioneers scenarios, modifications, utilities, music and sounds for the Real Time Strategy games: Age of Mythology and Age of Empires III. Our goal is to innovate; innovate design and teams. You would usually only see design teams as a group of people creating projects together to make for a more quality piece of work for the people; however, we want to inflame and inspire our members to make great things, and so we give them a cluster of benefits to help with their projects, and self-honing of skills. Liquid Fire Studios is a team like no other.

Lucky-Zion Studios; The Rise of Zion
We are a fairly new design team dedicated to working together as a community. The Rise of Zion (RoZ) is a department of Lucky-Zion Studios created to design and mod for Rise of Nations and Rise of Legends. You will find that we are very member-friendly, and we believe the more members we have, the merrier. You do not have to be the best to join, you just have to show that you want to work and you have to have some knowledge about designing. We have some great members dedicated to designing and modding for many popular RTS games. Also, check out our LZ Theatre.

The ArchDesigner Syndicate
Founded originally in early 2005 as a design clan for Age of Empires 3, the ArchDesigner Syndicate has been growing ever since. What started as a clan grew out to be a respectable design team covering Age of Mythology, Age of Empires 3, graphic design and the soon to come out Rise of Legends. The ArchDesigner Syndicate has a friendly atmosphere, with members who enjoy an occasional laugh. Gaining membership into The ArchDesigner Syndicate goes through application, so only decently skilled people can get in.

It does work with the retail version, just so you know.

The heroes things cannot be changed, and the texture names are coded too deep to change.

What's the point of that text by my tutorials? It just serves to infuriate me...
