Joan of Arc: A unlikely martyr

...

...

Stereotyping from hell here.  Apparently French soldiers are either whiny cowards who have bad accents, or whiny idiots who need an uneducated peasant to be their savior.

...With bad accents.

Or both.

Yay escort missions.  Get Joan over there. Hoo-rah.

I have no idea how that might sound in AoE French.

Also, apparently two knights with an entourage of footmen and archers are helpless travelers and easy pray for French highwayman.  Are people stupid?

Speaking of stupid, Joan is too stupid to actually get into the damn boat.  The French end up losing the Hundred Years' War, as Burgundian assassins cut down Joan as she shambled toward the boat waiting to take her to safety.

I'll definitely be picking this back up later, as it really is a joy to play (unlike its predecessor).   Now, off to a new age, and a new world, in Age of Empires 3.
