ESOC AoE3 Times // A bi-weekly newsletter

Ladies and gentlemen, I have some awesome news (pun intended)!

Some of you may have heard talk floating around the community of an AoE3 newsletter in the works. The rumors are a reality and writing has already begun! ESOC and Insight Studios are partnering to make this a regular part of your AoE3 experience.

The AoE3 Times will be a bi-weekly newsletter slated to begin the first week of February, though we are currently ahead of schedule so it may be on your screens even earlier! We have a lot of content planned and are constantly thinking up new additions and sections every day. The newsletter editions will be posted onto the ESOC News as a forum post as well as being uploaded as a PDF document. In the near future we will also release MP3 files so you can download and listen to it in a podcast format.

Community News:
Tournament updates, community events, up and coming players, interviews, etc!

Game Content:

Civilization, map, scenario, and mod reviews, strategy, as well as discussion about latest patch note!

Comedy:
Ask Jesus, AoE3 jokes, and AoE3 comics!

These are the main three segments we will produce, the goal is to have 2-3 articles per segment for your reading enjoyment. We are not limited to these segments however, and we are always looking for more articles to throw into our pool of content. If you are interested in joining the team I encourage you to visit our Studio Discord at https://discord.gg/MznQmAy as well as shoot myself or my Editor-in-Chief, Sdsanft, a PM.

Specifically we are looking to “hire”:

A person with video editing skills (site gets tired).

An intern to make us coffee when we stay up all night talking about the content we are making.

A person to help produce AoE3 Comic Strips.

I’d like to give credit to the editorial staff members who hopped on this before it was going strong.
