Hyena Studios was founded in 2003 as a scenario design team for Age of Empires II and random map scripting team for Age of Mythology.

Six Flags RTS Design Team
SF started in AoK where Kenji and Fluff were teaching themselves how to design. After a few months and no major acheivements we transfered our skills into SWGB where we made a step up and began producing some high level scenarios and growing in numbers. We then brached out into AoM and it was in AoM where we have spent most of our time designing. We then stopped completely for about a year and we are just returning now: with just the 2 original members (Kenji and Fluff). We specalise in multiplayer scenarios. We plan to move into AoE3 very soon. -Leaders Kenji and Fluff
Tsunami Studios
One of the most famous and oldest Real Time Strategy scenario design teams, founded by Inquizative in 1999. The team has come a long way since then and had many credits to their title, including several "Best of" projects for various games. Tsunami Studios has active members in Age of Kings, Age of Mythology, Empires, and Stronghold and will move also into Age of Empires 3. Only the best Artists and Designers are invited to join this elite organisation. Tsunami Studios will continue to put forth epic projects and scenarios as time progresses. Tsunami Studios has released more than over 200 projects for the various game titles and even more will be released in the future.
The university of Tsunami Studios is called the Tsuniversity. The Tsuniversity (TSU) is a unique online university dedicated to scenario design, and a comprehensive library of articles, tutorials, and resources for scenario designers. The current Tsunami Studio heads are Anastasia and StoryCreator.
Woad Creations
Woad Creations is one of the oldest design teams; specialised in Age of Kings, Empire Earth and Empires, their website has a more extensive collection of completed scenarios, campaigns and other files than any of the other teams. Woad Creations centres on historical productions (but fantasy scenarios and campaigns are no exception on the website), and its releases include many famous works, such as Norse Wars and Age of Chivalry. -Leader Kor

Kalos Designs
Kalos Designs is a newly formed organization but we still believe that we have the devotion and ambition of the larger design teams.
We are currently constructing a website in which our members and the general public can visit to gain insight on the current projects and ideas that Kalos Designs are formulating.
Currently finishing our individual projects, the team is looking forward to moving on to creating many high quality campaigns with input from both members and the general forumer. No matter your skill level if you wish to join an ever-growing team, Kalos Designs is perfect for you. -Leaders ChonKatarn and Titan602
Lucky-Zion Designs
We are a design team dedicated to working together as a community. We design for AOM and AOE3. You will find that we are very member-friendly, and we believe the more members we have, the merrier. You do not have to be very good to join, you just have to show that you want to work and you have to have some knowledge about designing and we can teach you the rest in Designers Ed. We are a pretty new design team, but we still have some talented projects out by our members. These include the Councils Bad Decision series by Cavetown and the Disciples of Chaos series by DWIEEB. Also, check out our LZ Theatre. - Leaders Pepsidude_123, DWIEEB, Glitch, and Cavetown[This message has been edited by King Jared (edited 01-16-2006 @ 06:28 PM).]
