Welcome to America!

This is a mod that aims to add Native American tribes to Age of Empires. The goal is to have new balanced civs based on famous Indian tribes. 4 new playable civs have been added: Cherokee, Navajo, Pueblo, and Iroquois.
Each of these civs share a generic unit that is similar to the eagle warrior, the tribal scout.

The Cherokee
The Cherokee are classified as an archer civ and have the following civ bonuses:
  • Villagers use bows when attacking
  • Foot military move 25% faster
  • Archers fire 20% faster
Team Bonus
Food resources last 10% longer
Unique Units
  • Slinger (Anti-infantry Archer)
  • Canoe (cheap, fast ship)
Unique Tech
Galistadi (+3 attack archers)

The Navajo
The Navajo are classified as an infantry civ and have the following bonuses:
  • Houses cost only 10 wood
  • Sheep can be raised at mills
  • Infantry have +2 attack vs. other infantry
Team Bonus
Infantry +2 LOS
Unique Unit
War Leader (infantry)
Unique Tech
Raid Leaders (+1/+3 armor for tribal scouts and war leaders)

The Pueblo
The Pueblo are classified as a defensive civ and have the following bonuses:
  • Buildings have +2 armor
  • Walls and towers cost -10% stone
  • Farms are more compact
  • Military units cost -10% food
Team Bonus
Towers +2 attack
Unique Unit
Feathered Archer (tanky archer with low attack)
Unique Tech
Raid Defences (+5 attack towers, castle, town centers)

The Iroquois
The Iroquois are classified as a monk civ and have the following bonuses:
  • Foragers and farmers work 15% faster
  • Monks move 30% faster
  • Monks are affected by armor upgrades
Team Bonus
Monastery works 15% faster
Unique Unit
Dart Blower (cheap, fast, weak archer)
Unique tech
Poison Darts (+3 attack dart blowers)


As of now this mod is in its infancy, but all 4 civs are currently playable, despite lacking polish.
There are many things that need work but for now they include:
  • Balance
  • Art
  • Voices
  • AI support

For now however, I am one person doing this in my free time so it may not progress quickly. Feel free to leave feedback to help me out.
Some placeholder art is from african kingdoms and the slinger is just a copy of the inca slinger but hopefully with help I can design more unique units to help differentiate these civs.

To install the mod, make sure UserPatch 1.4 is installed and unzip to your game directory.
To play run age2_AT.bat.

You should take your time and upload it to the Voobly Mod Centre, then people can play it online easily.

I'm trying to. The only issue is I'm not sure how voobly runs its mods. This mod uses an xml to patch the exe using UserPatch, but im not sure how voobly wants the file structure so that it will work correctly. If anyone has some insight into this it would be greatly appreciated.

EDIT: Got it figured out. Uploaded to the voobly mod server.

Mods are following the regular aoe folder structure, but keep in mind .dll and .exe are not usable. More info: Voobly's Game Modification help page
