EXCELLENT!!
Looks like some of my suggestions were eventually heard
The only issue i see with these changes are Indians are now a bad 1v1 civ.
I also think Burmese need compensation for the nerf they receive to arambai.
Glad Italians got a GC buff.
also glad the Squires change didn’t make it in.
Now at this point is, what is the future preparing
i doubt we get any balance changes for a bit.
woot
(20 char limit)
Now please consider to do the last one for AOE1 DE, the game deserves some love before 2020 ends
Nvm I just had to restart my game 11
Excellent! I love the democracy over random civs, and the nefs to khmer and armbai! (altough I think burmese need a compensation for that)
I just don’t agree with Indians change, but every else seems great. Thanks!
thank team game players for that.
Awesome thank you! 
I am happy for the turks gaining more accuracy on the jans
But I do hope that the random civ majority begins at 60% players and not just 50% - I’d hate to have all of my team want a specific civ and suddenly be thrust into randoms.
This would be worse for 1 vs 1 if one player wants random and the other chooses a civ and is thrust into random as well.
I mean, it wouldn’t be that bad if they had something for 1v1 against meso civ.
They should get arbs + knights imho
Liking some of these changes, particularly for Gbetos, Janissaries, and Kipcheks. Hope that there will be a cavalry archer fire delay reduction in a future update - Hard justifying playing as cavalry archer civilizations with a long delay that resets when the cavalry archers switch targets.
I really like the changes so far and I must say that I’m impressed with the state of age of empires 2 today. I played this game as a kid, bought the 2013 version on steam, then the HD version, then DE from microsoft store and now DE again from steam. I love how the dev team is still making changes to the core of the game (new wall QOL update) and supports modding and scripting. I also really like how cute and true to the original game the birthday visuals look.
Keep it up team!!
After this upload, i can’t acess multplayer.
I buy collection recently. 
HECK YES MY PROFILE PICTURE GOT BUFFED
I still think that the current Italian bonuses are kinda bland, but it’s a good buff nonetheless
