Welcome to AoEM Historian Blog

Hi everyone, I'm DaveDaring - a software engineer who stumbled upon this game due to the Age of Empires franchise. Very quickly it became apparent that fixed MGE was the way to go, but I was too busy fighting krakens zeroing people in my starting server for months... After 2 migrations though, I could finally take a step back and evaluate everything and decided to start building. Soon, this "AoEM Historian" will enable any empire to more simply implement fixed MGE or even just a fun way for people to track their own activity in their empire/server. I've got a ton planned for this ecosystem, and I hope you'll join me in making this the de-facto place for people to go for their Age of Empires tracking needs.

Of course, the activity tracking credit system with fixed MGE is just the first of (hopefully many) experiences that will be built here. Of course we'll have to see how many people are still playing this game the way the devs are rolling out power-creep features, but that's in part the motivation for this site. We as gamers are system explorers and system creators... we can start making one-alliance servers, totally quit spending, and maximize our efficiency and thereby make organized activities possible.

Let's face it, a lot of the game is doing chores. Let's get the chores out of the way and focus on what matters: using resources efficiently to always keep our power up without struggling over how MGE heroes get allocated. Stop using spreadsheets, start opening an economy.

I have much more to write, but right now I gotta get back to coding...
