—In-game description in the Definitive Edition

Cleopatra's Barge is a hero warship in Age of Empires: The Rise of Rome. It is available only in some campaign scenarios and the Scenario Editor. It looks similar to a Juggernaut.

Overview

The unit starts out with 500 hit points, 60 attack, 10 range and no armor. The Rate of Fire is similar to those of a Phoenician Juggernaught. If played as the Yamato civilization, the hit points increases by 20%. Neither Engineering nor Alchemy affect the stats of this unit whatsoever.

Cleopatra's Barge appears as an enemy in the The Battle of Actium scenario, where it must be destroyed to defeat the enemy.

Trivia

• Cleopatra's Barge is the only naval hero unit in Age of Empires. This means that in Return of Rome, it is the only ship incapable of conversion by Priests, and is the only ship that can automatically heal on its own (at a rate of 0.5 hit points per second), in addition to repairing by Villagers.
