Age of Empires 3 Cheat Codes

Age of Empires 3's cheat codes are different from the rest of the series: most aren't single words but full sentences. The same codes work in the Definitive Edition, and expansions and DLCs added new ones. We've collected all of them with what they do.
How do you enter cheats?
During a match, press Enter, type the code into the chat box that opens and press Enter again. Capitalization doesn't matter.
In the Definitive Edition, you can't earn achievements or medals in a session where you've entered a cheat. The only exception is tuck tuck tuck: it doesn't block achievements outside the Art of War missions, and it even has an achievement of its own.

|---|---|
| Medium Rare Please | Gives 10,000 food. |
| <censored> | Gives 10,000 wood. Type the code exactly like this, including the < > signs. |
| Give me liberty or give me coin | Gives 10,000 coin. |
| Nova & Orion | Gives 10,000 experience points (XP). |
| a recent study indicated that 100% of herdables are obese | Fattens every animal on the map, so they give more food. It helps your opponents too. |
