Aurum athina is like Valley of Kings, but with more gold and hostile Egyptian soldiers. The only recource is gold, so players start with a market and can buy or sell recources. 1 vs 1 play can be hard. Please comment.
-------IMPORTANT!!!-------------
It is reccomended that you play with allies+enemies as Egyptian (Egyptian uses little to no wood) use no wood).

I was just curious.
Is this Athina the same with Athena?

i dont think so.
The AI in this is weird. They advance quickly (like 2 minutes) and dont gather until they advance. I think the AI might actually be better in this than most maps.

This does as the author says. The playability is very good, but can also be very inconvinient, considering that resources are minimal. However, this makes it challenging, but i would have found the game more enjoyable if there was one more large goldmine. I also think that all market upgrades should be purchesed beforehand, or at least have the ability to do so. When playing an Easy, the egyption soldiers wandering around were actually harder than the real opponents. try make them like Straklings in Vinlasanga so they have around 3 axe damage and the archers 2. Also, there were too many soldiers at once. However, I was able to counter all of this with myth units
Additional Comments:
Althought a fun play, the "nature" is over powered and there needs to be one more gold mine by the base to get the army started. If you are having problems with defiting the nature, use myth units

No, athina is not athena. I used the other one to make the difference. They are pronounced the same, though.
