Which is stupid, because AoC clearly is. Playing EEC shouldn't even be an option anymore.
there's no such thing as 'aoc is better' or 'eec is better'.
Fact is, both games are enjoyable in different ways.
Mod TL aoc can be a very nice boom war where as mod tl eec can be a nice rush - and eventually a boom war.
Mid SH aoc will have many great wars pushing back and forth for hours, Mid SH EEC will also have that, except games are generally faster due no expandsionism & medium map. Trust me, you can still use different strategies than default swords/cav, if you know how to. (same story for aoc IF YOU KNOW HOW TO.) Exception: civ powers such as flaming arrows, fanatism, pathfinding etc.
Liga simply cannot be enjoyed on aoc since the civilizations are unbalanced. But it can be enjoyed in eec
.
Pretty much any set can be nice and played in different ways when you compare EEC to AOC but that doesn't mean AOC is better or EEC is better, it's just a personal preference for a or multiple set(s).
Besides, "Playing EEC shouldn't even be an option anymore." that would instantly kill Empire Earth. And if you're going to deny that fact then you actually deserve people flaming at you with toxic behaviour.
