    Furthering the (re-)discovery of the machinima and live-action blended series Age of Nations (AoN), this week's focus is on Episode 105: "First Strike". In addition to being able to download the episode in Windows Media (WMV) format from the course website, you can also stream it off of YouTube. Set in the Rise of Nations universe as the first Real-Time Strategy (RTS) machinima series and first for the game, AoN ran for one season of 14 episodes and ending with a featurette released in July 2007.

    As described for the series' fifth episode:

    Questions of who knew what and when must be put on hold as one of their own is reported missing.

    Emotions still running high, a dramatic confrontation will have more than one side with reason to claim victory.
    Afterwards, you can also stream the commentary on the episode or download directly if you prefer; first released in March 2006, it has been absent from public distribution for more than three years to today. From the now defunct game developer Big Huge Games co-founded by Civilization II and Alpha Centauri Lead Designer Brian Reynolds, RoN worked to incorporate Turn-Based Strategy (TBS) elements into an RTS environment.
