A new Update for Age of Empires: Definitve Edition has been announced. As pointed out by forumer Romanos_V some interesting new additions are promised, including unit stances and the option to make farms impassable like in classical RoR, in addition to balance changes and improvements to MP matchmaking.

Some time has passed since we changed the poll as well. To summarize our last one, I asked about your favorite Post-Iron unit, and the winner is a dominant force in any RM game that reaches the late Iron Age, the Heavy Horse Archer. The full results of the poll are displayed below:

What is your favorite Post-Iron Age Unit?

Heavy Horse Archer (20%, 38 Votes)
Centurion (19%, 37 Votes)
Heleopolis (13%, 24 Votes)
Legion (10%, 20 Votes)
Cataphract (10%, 20 Votes)
Schythe Chariot (9%, 18 Votes)
Armored Elephant (7%, 14 Votes)
Juggernaut (6%, 12 Votes)
Heavy Catapult (6%, 8 Votes)

Total Votes: 191

For our next poll I've picked a topic I've always wanted to ask you about but never quite figured out how to without overwhelming you with options; Scenario Designers. The solution is a somewhat arbitrary division between the "classical" designers, before the advent of overlapping buildings with the enhanced editor 2.0, and the "modern" designers after that. Then we may begin with a somewhat concise list of classical designers, and do the modern at a later time. And if your favorite is missing from this far from comprehensive list, feel free to leave a comment and I'll try to add them.

Oh, and a quick P.S., we have merged the Scenario Design and Modding forums into one, so expect to see modding threads on the front page along with our other forum topics in the future.
