Ideas for new map modes in the game!

If weather effects were easy to add in the game, it would have long been implemented. Your suggestion is another gimmick to be added for AoE 2 DE which the game doesn’t need. Also this weather gimmick is suited for single-player type of content like campaigns or custom games than being implemented in “ranked” matches.

Best chance to have rains slowing down cavalry is if the upcoming AoE 4 has dynamic weather effects.
