Steam Client is not listing my game

Question

For the first time I bought a game from steam Age of Empires Online : All in wonder. The transaction was successful and I got the game listed under my account in the steam website but when I download the latest steam client and install it, there are 0 games listed under the library tab. I also raised a steam support ticket three days ago, but no response from them till now. Does anyone know how to resolve this issue? Any help is appreciated. Thanks.

Answer

Age of Empires Online is a free-to-play game with optional pay-to-play DLC. The All in Wonder bundle is a bundle of this DLC for the base game. This might seem like a minor distinction, but it's an important to understand what's happening here.

As with other free-to-play games in Steam, the base Age of Empires Online game will not appear in the "All games" list like a normal purchased game would, even if have purchased DLC for it. However, if you go to the steam store and search for the game there, you will be able to install the game client through Steam as normal.

As your paid-for DLC is associated with your Steam account it should still be available when you log into AoE Online through Steam.

Damage modifier on Priest Staves

Question

Some priest Holy Staves have the +damage modifier on them. This appears quite often. Since priests can't attack, what's the point of having this modifier?

Answer

Priests are useful when dealing with wild animals. The damage modifier comes into effect here.

See the general tips section on the fanpage and this discussion in the forums.

Building list for capital city

Question

As the title says. Is there any list of buildings available to build in the capital city? Everything included decorations, random chest drops, workshops etc.

Answer

There isn't an official one that I am aware of but here is the result of a concerted community effort to list every city building in the game. Hope this helps answer your question.

Bonus damage protection +x% on gear items in Age of Empires Online

Question

I understand most of the stats and what they do such as infantry armor +x%. Self explanatory. However, I am not sure what Bonus damage protection +x% means. Protection on top of armor or?? There is no ingame explanation for these things. Any help is appreciated.

Answer

All units have some default values that determine their combat strength,lets say that some infantry unit has all stats on 10 and cavalry on 20 which makes cavalry stronger.If infantry is strong against cavalry they will have their default "cavalry bonus damage" set to 15.In that way they balance the game with default values and units.

The "bonus damage protection" is the default stat that reduces all incoming damage by some specific value,if default damage protection of infantry unit is 10 it will reduce all incoming damage by lets say 5 damage(unknown values), if you equip "+100% bonus damage protection" the damage protection of infantry would now be 20 and it would reduce incoming damage by 10.The specific "cavalry armor" and others will further reduce incoming damage by value that corresponds to the attacker type.

Basicly that word "bonus" only confuses you it is "damage protection" + "armor protection" where armor protection will be different number depending on attacking type.
