Hard to believe that all these years playing the original Age of Empires, I just now discovered what I call "bombing runs."

Select 3-4 Juggernauts. If there's a cluster of bow, like horse or chariot all group, get out of range, do an attack ground in the middle of that group, then when the Jugs come up and just fire their shots, click them away so that there's no retaliation, or minimal.

Blam. Splat. Rinse. Repeat.

🔥 Behold, the groundbreaking #innovation that lets you play Age of Empires offline... using a "web server" on "LAN." Because who needs the internet when you can have a 1998-style local network party? 🎉🔧 (Bonus points if you can configure it without spiraling into existential dread.)
