IGNPC Review
"The Conquerors is an excellent
example of adding tons of new features to a game without totally changing its character
or throwing it totally out of balance. It brings a lot more to Age of Empires II
than we expected and it does it all while preserving the character of the original."
Daily Radar Review
"Simply put, Ensemble made
a great game with Age of Empires II, and with this expansion, they've improved upon
it. Will there ever be an RTS that can match what Ensemble has created? We don't
know, but until we see one, we'll be pointing to AoE II with The Conquerors Expansion
as the best there is in the business."
GamePro.com Review
"These enhancements are
the icing on the cake. AOE2 was a blast before and with The Conquerors Expansion
it's more fun than ever."
GameSpot Review
"Virtually every addition
in The Conquerors helps make Age of Empires II a better, more thoroughly enjoyable
game."
GamePen Review
"Age of Empires II: The
Conquerors (AOE2:TC) is a textbook on what an expansion set should do. It adds new
features, gives more options, and tweaks mistakes from the original product. AOE2:TC
does this, and does it expertly."
Games Domain Review
"The Conquerors showcases
the good things about the RTS genre. Units have Total Annihilation sense and The
Conquerors is the first game I've played that makes a major improvement on RTS unit
AI since the leap found in Total Annihilation."

IGNPC Preview
"With loads of new units
and civilizations, this is one of the most expansive expansions we've seen."
GamePower Review
"Yet, for all that Brood
War did for Starcraft, The Conquerors takes things to a whole new level. Strategy
archives will be rewritten. Clans will be torn asunder. Spouses and children will
evolve into strangers. Five new civilizations, 11 new units, and 26 new technologies
have a way of doing that."
