I know the last expansion pack was 2007, but on average how many people still play this online? I'll definitely play if it's a good community. I mean, it can be worse the AOM's average of 500 people online.

I usually play TAD.
If you play Vanilla are you limited to just the Euro Civs? And the original maps? Or can you use all the civs and all the maps (provided you have the expansions)?
Are their huge gameplay differences?

TAD has way more people on, I don't have a clue where people exactly get the idea that more people play vanilla, but for instance vanilla has 1 page full of games or less and TAD always has atleast 1 and half for me, TWC normally has a half.

I've been playing on ESO for about a month now so I'll share my experience with you:
I play TWC always and when I am online (usually between 19:00 and 1:00 GMT+1 (CET)) there are between 1500-3400 people online, although usually the max reaches 3000.
For TWC there are maybe average 15 games available at that time each time, but I mostly host my own game.
In the Beginners chat channel there are people who will probably right-click and invite you; the amount of people there varies between 5 and 30. Usually something like 25 in busy hours.
I know that ESO mailed me that their ESO2 server has maintenance every tuesday in the morning (America-morning time, 5 pm CET time), so that means you won't be able to logon to ESO at that time (because they are patching it).
Yes, most people play nilla (the original AOEIII, I would say 99% of them, literally, because I am usually the only guy playing TWC in the chat rooms. LOL).
I haven't tried TAD yet. =)

When i sign on to play TAD there are never more than 10 games listed. Do I need to download the fan patch for more games to show??
