Ok, step by step.
Choose the rec you want to view (make sure you have the right version, Titans recs only work with Titans, AOM recs only work without Titans).
Click download, and if need be the second link to bring up the dialouge box.
Click save, and set the file to dl on the Desktop for simplicity.
Once it has downloaded, you'll need to unzip it. If you have Windows XP, simply open the file and click extract all on the left. If you don't have XP you'll need to download (free) Winzip (www.winzip.comi believe).Once you have the file extracted, you'll need to move it to C:\Program Files\Microsoft Games\Age of Mythology\Savegame folder. If you have Titans, you can also use My Documents\My Games\Age of Mythology\Save game folder if you wish.
Make sure the file ends with .rcx if it is for Titans, or .rec for AOM vanilla.
Now open the game, click more -> recorded games and select the file from the list.
Sometimes you need to scare the lambs,
tell tales of evil bad wolves.
Because if there is nothing to fear,
they might think for themselves.
