You build up your forces starting with peasants. Just watching the computer opponent wheel it infantry to match a flanking Calvary charge is impressive.Īs stated above, the heart of the game is a real time simulation. The game claims you can have up to 16,000 units at hand for a battle, frankly I didn't count them, but the number dwarfed most other games. Although the graphics aren't on the cutting edge, when you can get thousands of units on the field at once and control them with formation movements, the feeling of history comes through without any problem.
You can play the battles on a single map or you can go through the entire campaign.
Each of the historical campaign missions starts you with a brief history lesson to give you the significance of the task you are about to attempt. It lets you re-enact historical campaigns and battles from as far north as Alaska down through South America. The game itself takes place in the new world between the years 1517-1804. The sound effects during battle are really well done. The little history lessons during loading screens are quite interesting. You also get everything in the original game, so if you missed this one the first time out, here is your chance to get it all. It adds 5 more nations, 50 new units, and 26 new historical missions in 8 separate campaigns. It is a stand alone edition to the original American Conquest. Fight Back is yet another good product using this engine.
