&lt;p&gt;Because the fan patch takes away all the unique aspects of certain civs. Aside from the unit names and pictures, they are all the exact same, talking in terms of attack, HP, etc.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;If I wanted to play a game with no unique civs or units I would have stuck with AOE1 or 2 because although some units like Ashi may be OP trying to counter them just adds more depth and strategy and excitement to the game.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/BLOCKQUOTE&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;You find continuously losing to ashi spammers exciting?&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;RE did somewhat address Japan's imbalances in 1.02, but balance is far from perfect in their version.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;And the FP didn't take away the unique aspects of certain civs. I would argue in fact that it made the civs more unique.&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</description></item><item><title>Re: why haven't you tried the fan patch?</title><link>http://forum.agecommunity.com/forums/thread/868883.aspx</link><pubDate>Wed, 27 Jan 2010 19:59:06 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">50924996-b13e-4713-b45b-a7ea483affa6:868883</guid><dc:creator>duolckrad</dc:creator><slash:comments>0</slash:comments><comments>http://forum.agecommunity.com/forums/thread/868883.aspx</comments><wfw:commentRss>http://forum.agecommunity.com/forums/commentrss.aspx?SectionID=1035&amp;PostID=868883</wfw:commentRss><description>&lt;BLOCKQUOTE&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;img src="http://forum.agecommunity.com/Themes/default/images/icon-quote.gif"&gt; &lt;strong&gt;Aaryn GenD:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;lol guys spare your breath... in a week or lil more the next fp will be out...
