I've been playing this game for little over a year online now, although I had great deals of fun discovering all the different kinds of tactics, I noticed that in the end "you have seen it all". There's more to life than Arabia Hunwars or hell even worse, Aztec wars. A Vikewar on Islands starts to look like a movie I've seen 100 times before. Even Arena (the map with the most diverse set of options imho) starts to look repetitive. But then again, don't we always play the same thing over and over again?
So, I made this site is to promote games in AoC that require thinking out of the box, maps and settings where your usual build orders are no guarantee for success. Some maps show true skills instead of being able to copy a build-order someone else came up with. So far I've added 10 game concepts, some real good ones, some that are so ****ed up that they're extremely funny, but not really material for a serious match. So get your friends out to try! 8-)

Check it out and give comments/critique/suggestions please!
Oh, and give some of those settings a shot
EDIT:
Added new items such as :
Records section with the best out-of-the-box-thinking records
Articles section with articles (yes!) and quizzes
Training section with training scenarios (only 1 so far, but more in the making)
