hey I was thinking of making the market more meaningful and an important part of the game. In AOE the market is insignificant. I build it because it is an option for upgrading to another age and because it looks good and to obviously send resources to allies when they ask for it.. other than that it is useless. I would like the market to be a place where trade from all over including outside your civilization can be done in a realistic way ie. you have to travel to and from the market by cart, ship or by foot to exchange goods, not type in 500 wood(or whatever other resource) and send it to your allies. sure this is quicker but not interesting at all. also instead of only being able to buy and sell resources such as food, wood, gold and stone, resources specific to each civilisation can be traded. These resources could be used to do things like make stronger armour, for medicine, make stronger weapons etc. even animals could be traded for example the Persians could trade their camels or elephants for animals they don't have.

Hi, my name is Austin. I am a programmer for my summer job (not very good, so I couldn't contribute much in that department.) However, I am a senior trumpet performance major at a well known school, so I think that I could do any trumpet solo that you need recorded. I play very well . I have several examples that I can give you.
