It was a long chat but a great episode with Sandy Petersen, head game designer of the original AoE franchise! We spoke about this 25 year old game masterpiece and how difficult it was to balance it.

Sandy has spent about 20 years in the computer gaming industry, as a designer on the teams that produced Civilization, Doom, Quake, the Age of Empire series, and Halo Wars.
