The New World era features stunning scenes, from towering European cathedrals to courageous tribes of Native Americans, and spectacular combat with Industrial Age units like rifled infantry, cavalry and tall ships bristling with cannons.
The game covers a few centuries of the infancy of the Western Hemisphere\'s recorded history, with all the technologies and terrain discovered during the Colonial period. Gamers can sail the Atlantic as the English, French, Portuguese, Prussians, and more. Once they reach land, players will establish trade and monopolies, as well as deal some New World whoopin\' on one another. Native American tribes aren\'t playable, but they can be brought on as allies. |
