We've added ingame ads to all game servers, so please add an exception to this site if you use ad-blocking tools. We would prefer that you use the "Ad Level" options on the Preferences page to control ads instead of ad-blockers. You can get to this page through the "Options" link in the top left or by going to http://www.earthempires.com/usrprefs .

Option 1: No ads
No ads on any ingame pages.

Option 2: Performance ads
No ads for a short time after making an attack or being attacked. This will allow players to attack or to stonewall quickly without having to wait for ads to load. In addition, no ads are shown during the final five minutes of the round.

Option 3: Full ads
Ads on all ingame pages.
