Cheat Hotkey
----------------------------------
Build immutable structure - [Ctrl] + P
New resource menu - [Ctrl] + T
Speed construction - [Ctrl] + Q
View ending - [Ctrl] + C


Fast resources:
---------------
Use the following trick to rapidly enter the cheat codes and get resources quickly.
For wood, press [Enter], type "lumberjack", highlight the word, then press [Ctrl] + C
to copy it. Press [Enter] to activate the cheat. Press [Enter] again, then press
[Ctrl] + V to paste the word on the screen for activation. Repeat to get resources
quickly. This may be used with the rock on, robin hood, and cheese stack jimmy's
codes.

Random map:
-----------
When you do a random map, use a team islands setting and have seven players. Make
three of them your allies, and four enemies. Start the game and go to the third
button from the top right corner. Put check marks next to all your allies and click
on "Food Please", "Wood Please", "Stone Please" or "Gold Please" in the box below.
The only resource your allies will not give you is gold.

Hint: More bases advantage:
---------------------------
To have a better chance of winning, you might want to build more than one base.
Enlarge the base you start out with, making it completely fortified with at least
two castles. Then, send a scout cavalry, or some other fast moving unit, to the
opposite side of the map from your base. After you have checked the area and
confirmed that it is safe, send a villager to build a castle at that location and
fortify that base. This is very helpful if your enemy knows where one of your
bases are located, especially during online play.

Free ally:
----------
When you build a market, there is a chance that a rival tribe will ask you to send
them a certain amount of wood, stone, gold, and food. When they do, click on
"Diplomacy" or press [Alt] + D and click "Ally" on the name of that tribe. They
will become an ally free of charge. However, when you do this you will no longer
be able to align yourself with any other tribes. This is helpful if there are four
tribes in the game.

Save resources:
---------------
When you are allies with others, do not build a market to avoid giving them resources.

Game Tip:
---------
Press "qwerty" on the keyboard at the same time and you can edit the colours of the
buildings and people.

Hide Behind The Tower:
----------------------
Here is a Tip for a great idea! Build any type of TOWER you know. Put some of your
military units behind the TOWER so the other players you are playing with cannot see.
So then when they attack the tower your units come out and kill your oppents!

For Larger Enemies:
-------------------
Hit enter in the Imperial Age and type in "bigger baddies" exactly the way I did and
you're enemies should get huge. They won't be harder though. This is a cool cheat,
but has no effect. Submitted by Hank Grungey

If You Are Playing A Map With Plenty Of Water:
----------------------------------------------
Stay(walk) near shore or on the shallow, use heavy demo ship to bomb them! One heavy
demo ship can take out at least 20 infantry, monks, archers or light cavalry with it,
or sevaral scorpions and onagers. Two can take out Knights, camels and trebuchets.
Three can take out rams. Do not use them to bomb elephant, it is to costly unless
you have too many resources.

Cheat:
------

Get 1 milita, 1 archer and 1 spearman. press enter and write in GUN. Then select all
the men and call them GUN1. Press enter and put in the code Gun1. now your men all
have machine guns and take away 99 and have 99 health. Press enter and write in
furious the monkey boy. you get a ape which takes away 99 has 99 health his armour
is 99 and his range is 99.

Hint:
-----
In Battle (game) always put swordsman on flat ground and archers on hilley grounds
and then you have a better chance of wining.

Hint:
-----

At first of a regicide you get 10 villages at start, so all you have too do is to
put 3 on wood, 3 on food, 2 on gold 1 on stone, then leaves you 1 villager then
with your last villager put it to work for buildig your millitary base. then just
slowly add villagers from your town centre and put them on resources.

Cheat:
------
Type in the number that corresponds to the number that appears next to the taunt to
access it easily. I like "Long time, no siege" and "Don't point that thing at me".

Cheats:
-------
Note: You must hit enter to access the cheat mode.

Type In "wimpywimpywimpy" to defeat all of your allies. Type in "Resign" to make all
of your enemies immediately resign!

Hint:
-----

I reckon all the cheat i read of it for on line is useless. This is how you attack
effectively:
If you playing one on one explore blackforest map then in dark age use one vileges
to build house to rise your population"i think every one know this" the other chop
wood then use your scout to find sheep when you think you find all the sheep then
use all the vilages you have to gather food then use one vilages to build palase
wall to boclk his or her exist then upgrade right away, when you are in fedual age
build stone wall at your palase wall build like 5 layer or more, many as you like.
Now you know they cannot rush you without you knowing.then upgared to caste age
then fishned them off.

Hint:
-----
If you build a long wall with many gates and your peasants are opening the gates for
your enemies you can block the gates: --just click on the gate and then clic on the
icon that appears in the left corner so it will be closed untill you will open'it
again. If you close all gates not even your allies can get resources from your land.


Hint:
-----
Click on a unit or building and press delete. The thing you clicked on will kill
itself! You can do the same thing with a group,but you must click delete alot for
it to kill everyone. (only works on your own stuff)


Cheat:
------
When putting cheat codes into the chat box, hightlight the cheat with the mouse and
press Ctrl+C to copy it, press Return twice to bring the cheat box again. This time
instead of typing the cheat again, just press Ctrl+V and paste the cheat back in.

Cheat:
------
Press enter for the cheat menu and type in the following cheat code:

BIGBROTHER - This will give you a chair with a rocket launcher.

Hint:
-----
Keepping a live; if you are being attacked by an enemy and they are headed for you
towncenter (Or something you can garison people in.) click your staple and set the
gather point to that building and make some units and when your building ungarisons
your men they will kill the enemy that is attacking you!

GameTip:
--------
Its like this in a three player game when you become an ally with one player construct
15 batterring rams and take them to the ally's kingdom and place them near the important
buildings like town center etc. then take a mangonel and select attack ground and right
click the allys building he will become mad at you and he will become an enemy then use
all your battering rams to destroy the ally.

Villager suprisse attack:
-------------------------
This tip will make an attack without 'attack'. This is the condition - If you play
against computer, you have a neutral tribe, you have an ally that currently on a war
with that neutral tribe. If ye want to help your ally do this. Create a group of five
villager, upgrade the Loon tech., create university, advance the Fortified Wall, and
gather stones as much as possible. Send the Villagers to the ally base and create
Fortified wall nearby the Neutral's building, create 5 or 3 is recommended! If your
'just made' wall is attacked it's the main purpose! The next door building will be
affect as well. While they're attacking their own building, create some more
Fortified Wall beside the another building, eg. Monastery, or even Town Center!
-NoCheAt-

Cheat:
------
While playing the game, press enter. You will see a dialogue box. Type "aegis" in it
for one touch construction of buildings.

Have gold without Cheating:
---------------------------
Destroy your weakest opponent. Finish everything exept its market. Make sure that
the path between your market and opponents market is secure. route many(eg.20-30)
trade carts to trade. happy gold.

Hint:
-----
When ever you start the game just type marco in chat box and all enemy's will be
visible to you. Now the next big thing which you have to do in the early part of
the game is that With the help of you villager , make a wall on the enemy gate's,
make it strong. With the help of this you will have enough time to make ur
civilization advanced and strong.

To win eassily:
---------------
Press enter, type in aegis to construct and create more fast, is more speedy and
you can win eassily. But you need, lumber, rock, food and gold. There's no problem,
if you need food, only type cheese steak jimmy's. If rock is the needed resourse,
any problem again type rock on. You need gold, type robin hood and if do you need
lumber type lumberjack do it as the same time what you need.
Note: The resourses cheats only give you 1000 units but you can get more typping
again the cheat.

Easy winning:
-------------
Is more easy to win if you protect your base. And destroy all the enemies before
attack. If you get a problem in the game and you cannot win, only press Enter type
in tosmithereens and now in your Town Center is create an Saboteur, you can do what
you want, and the population no are problem. If you cant create more soldiers,
thats no it problem and to get a Cobra Car. Press Enter and type in how do you
turn this on and the car is are not very powerfull but his resistance is high
create as you want.
Note: Theres you need two Town Centers to create these units

Hint:
-----
Always try to build gates instead of walls around your city.They cost the same but
the difference is between their attack chances.If a wall is attacked 1 time, it is
attacked 0.001 times.They will just come and roam near your city outside but cannot
attack your city.Always try to make your city wide open because they cannot attack
the gates but will ataack the incities buildings like houses,barracks and all
buildings by means of archers.mangonels and trebuchets and also do not make towers
and castles for defense near your gates because the gates will not be attacked
and you can progress without defense until you can attack.So your first priority
should be surrounding your city with gates. and capture huge areas and resources.
BEST LUCK!!!!!

Cheat:
------
type "furious the monkey boy"in the chatbox by pressing enter key. You will
receive a little monkey at your town center.it can kill infantry units with a
single shot. towers and castles don't fire at it. it can destroy buildings with
few shots.cool!huh!!!

Hint:
-----
if you want to gain more resources you need to create more villages. If the
population is 75 you will need not less than 25 villagers so that the will
provide more resources so that you can create more soldiers for attack. Before
starting a multiplayer game you will have to take a tribe which has more
reserches so that your men and building will be stronger enough to stand any
kind of attacks.

Hint:
-----
take ur time and go till imperial age and reaserch the bombtower now choose
1 or 2 villagers and take them near a enemy buulding and just make the tower
near tha building and take the villager away after some time the tower will
be attacking the building but u must also take some archer with u and keep
near the tower so that the tower won't be distroyedor just make a keep near
it and put some archer inside or when u r attacking your enemy and if u r
inside the enemy town you can take some villagers and take them near a enemy
buulding and just make the tower near the buildings one by one it will save
ur time and u will win easily (u must have enough stones)good luck on your
conquest.

Save resources:

When you are allies with others, do not build a market to avoid giving them
resources.

Saving your villagers:
----------------------
Use the following trick to keep your villagers alive while hunting boars. If you are
in the Castle Age, create some monks and place them near the villagers as the kill
the boar. The monk will continue to replenish the villagers' health as they kill the
boar.

Easy win:
---------
For easy victory over the CPU under any difficulty setting, place eight to twelve
villagers into three control groups. Then, have two control groups working on gold
and one working on stone until all of the stone piles and gold piles are gone. Next,
build at least two of every building and upgrade everything as fast as possible. If
done quick enough you should be able to either swarm your enemy or surround him with
castles.

Explore enemy territory without being attacked:
-----------------------------------------------
Advance to the Feudal age, build a Market, then create a Trade Cart. Use the Trade
Cart to safely explore your opponent's territory. If your opponent is neutral, they
will not harm the Trade Cart. Another trick is to create several Trade Carts and
place them evenly across your opponent's area to see everything they are doing,
without having to spend several thousand gold to research Spies/Treason.

Machine Gunners:
----------------
For this cheat your must have CREATED a map with at least one SHAH on it. (to create
a shah, go to heroes and press "S". Then, play the map and select your sha, bring it
over to an enemy unit / building (preferably a house) and right click on that object.
The shah will begin attacking it! The only drawback is that the shah has very little
attack.

More Bases Advantage:
---------------------
To have a better chance of winning, you might want to build more than one base. Enlarge
the base you start out with, making it completely fortified with at least two castles.
Then, send a scout cavalry, or some other fast moving unit, to the opposite side of the
map from your base. After you have checked the area and confirmed that it is safe, send
a villager to build a castle at that location and fortify that base. This is very helpful
if your enemy knows where one of your bases is located, especially during online play.

To Play With Allies:
--------------------
Play Single Player -
Random Map ,With Difficulty - Easiest, With At Least
Other Players - 3, With Reveal Map - Normal, Starting Age - Standard,
Victory - Standard & Tick the Team Together, the All Techs & Don't tick
Lock Teams.

At the starting of the game messages will appear like that -
"X Changed diplomatic stance with you to neutral." (x= Other players)
Then Open the Diplomacy(ALT-D) Screen,Change other player stance to neutral.
Thus in next age when you have a market,messages will apper for
make ally by giving some 100 resources of food,wood,gold or stone.
paiding so you will be able to make ally with other players.

Cheat:
------
Dont build walls build watch towers infront of this "watch tower wall" build a castle.

Walk on water:
--------------
Create a scenario and make all allies and enemies as desired, but have at least two enemies.
Make the map have water and build an enemy bridge or go to a campaign with a bridge (for
example, Attila the Hun). Enable the torpedo code, followed by the number of whatever player
it is with a bridge. The bridge will disappear. Then, click a unit and walk on the "bridge".

Cheat:
------
Press/Type "qwerty" (no space) on the keyboard at the same time and you can edit the colours
of the buildings and people.

Cheat:
------
Type "furious the monkey boy" gives you an awesome little dude, able to raze everything
in his way, a lot more efficient than cars.

Confuse enemys:
---------------
When you start the game the game in a hard level, the enemy might attack pretty quickly
and destroy your village before you have a chance to build your resources. Just enter
all the food,wood,stone and gold cheats and advance to the imperial age. Then send a
couple of your villagers (and units to guard the villagers) to a blank corner of the
map and build a wall around one of the villagers. If your village gets destroyed just
destroy the stone wall and get the villager in there to build a new and secret base.
This will confuse your enemys in to tyhinking you are destroyed.

Easy win:
---------
First, make as many allies as possible. Advance through as many ages as you can to upgrade
all your units. Make sure you can build Towers and Castles. Next, go directly next to your
ally's main city and surround it with towers. Build a castle every so often on your way
from your city to theirs, so they cannot counterattack. Next, build up an army of siege
weapons (for the buildings) and cavalry (for everyone else), and position them inside your
ally's city. Finally, switch them to "Enemy", sit back, and watch the city crumble.

Tip when fighting the AI:
-------------------------
You can take advantage of the AI in AoK by building a wall around your entire base except
for a small and heavily fortified opening, the AI will only enter through the opening you
left and will get slaughtered if you have archers. You can go further by making a maze-
like entrance which will increase the time the enemy spends getting fired upon.

Your own history:
-----------------
You can change what the history section says in the Aok title Screen says by right
clicking on the Aok icon and click on find target and when the windows opens click on
history and edit the any notepad file the check out the history section on the Aok title
screen and it should say what you typed into the notepad file.Unfortunately you cannot
change the name of the topic for example if you edited the Britons it will still say
Britons.

ES Logo in Mission:
-------------------
This is just something I found out. In mission one of the William Wallace campaign,
if you type in the reveal map cheat code (Marco) you will see the ES logo on the west
side of the map.

Fortress, Which Can Never Be Taken:
-----------------------------------
To make a fort which will never, ever be taken by the enemy, you need to set up a game
in 'the black forest' as the name sugests, you start in...a very large forest, with a
small village depending on what settings you have chosen(i personably would chose death
match, as you get lots of resources.) any way, you need to make sure you have a onager,
or something whcih can destroy lots of trees very quikely. you then start tunneling
into the trees, making walls and gates along the way. put towers with archers behing
each gate, and make large areas where you can put castles, barracs, churchs ect and
town centres. no matter how hard your enemy tries, they can never get through the walls.
This tactic will take about 1 hour.
