It's crazy how well that game holds up even today. Also quite hilarious how completely different my playing style is today than when I was 12. I had no clue about how to counter specific units, build order or even luring the boars. I'd absolutely wipe floor with my past self even with the medicore skills I have at it now.
Yeah it's pretty incredible. I don't know if I ever played without at least resource cheats as a kid.
I do remember knowing the triangle infantry beats cavalry beats archers, but also thinking "more expensive units must be better". So I would build m@a-line to counter scouts or knights, rather than spear-line. I probably never built more than 20 vills, either.
