To counter your new argument: age2 has historical heroes. They go to lvl 150, can have way better stats than regular heroes, and you really don't want to loose them. They are much more heroes to be proud of when you have them and it hurts way more when you loose them.
When you compare the complete hero systems of age1 and age2 than I really prefer age2... it's much better. It's true that you don't get instant troops but you can build fast enough with top heroes: 250k archers per 24h is not too difficult.
Another difference is the leadership attribute. It kind of forces you to hunt down some historical heroes if you want to attack or defend with big armies (historical city rally spots need historical heroes to avoid stat-penalties).
