Here is my Bablyonian town in Age of Empires: Rise of Rome. Note the pet gazelles I got my cavalry to herd in there. Yes, I spend most of my games doing stupid things like that. :P
Assuming you have timidity++ installed you can cause the music to work by launching the timidity server in a terminal like this:
timidity -iA

And here is a shot of the results of a Deus EX GOTY multiplayer game between me and my older brother. Turrets mostly. ^_^

With all the gold that those relics generated, I could buy all the resources I needed from the market and concentrate on building cannon galleons and conquistadors. With those units I managed to surgically take out my enemies with no loss of life on my part, as they were in previous ages and had most of their buildings accessible from sea, and my ally also provided some more basic grunt troops.
I also managed to build a large flock of decorative turkeys and penned them up with palisade walls. Now THAT is how you play the game. :P

You sound just like my dad. Have you played AOE 3? It was my favourite.

Although, I did like Rise of Nations. I remember playing that through WINE soon after I made the full switch to Linux back in 2007. Everything ran perfectly except the sound did not work, as far as I can recall. I should try it again at some point, if I ever get a period where I do not have a large swath of natives games taking up my time.
