The Battles of the Conquerors are a series of unrelated campaign scenarios in Age of Empires II: The Conquerors. They revolve around famous historic battles during the medieval period.

Unlike with most other campaigns in Age of Empires II, the scenarios in this campaign have no true order, instead all being unlocked from the start for play.

In the Definitive Edition, all eight scenarios are now part of the Historical Battles section, along with the Battles of the Forgotten scenarios.

Scenarios[]

Certain names ring down through history as men and women who shaped the world. Some were forces of chaos, destructive and rapacious. Some were men of honor who fought for the right. Some defended their homeland from invaders, while others used their military might to violently acquire the lands of others. Battles such as Agincourt, Manzikert, and Hastings are remembered as turning points in world history, and names such as Henry V, Yi Sun-shin and Erik the Red are etched forever as great conquerors. Now relive their tragedies and triumphs.
—In-game campaign description

The campaign consists of 8 scenarios, each with a different civilization and player color.

Unlike all other campaigns in the game, the scenarios are narrated by an external narrator.
