The lowdown: One of the few major complaints levelled at the original Age of Empires III was the odd way that Native Americans were handled in the game, where they played only a minor supporting role. Apparently they were saving themselves for this expansion pack, which includes three different tribes: Iroquois, Sioux and Aztec. Each has a very different set of units and buildings, both compared to the European factions and each other. The expansion also includes new hero units for everyone, new minor tribes (for a total of 16) and a new victory condition called Trade Monopoly where you have to take control of your opponents trading posts. Most exciting moment: The most unusual of the three new factions are the plains dwelling Sioux, who are master horsemen and do not need to build houses in order to create more troops. This makes them a highly unpredictable enemy and perfect for hit and run attacks. Since you ask: One of the most interesting new features for the European faction is to call for a revolution. This stops all your production for the rest of the game but instantly upgrades all your military units and turns all your civilians into soldiers. Its a big risk but often the only way out of a tight spot. The bottom line: A solid expansion to one of last years best strategy games.- HARRISON DENT

This item is sold brand new. It is ordered on demand from our supplier and is usually dispatched within 24 hours When it comes to vast, kingdom-spanning ambition, you can't do better than Microsoft's Age of Empires II: The Age of Kings. Microsoft went all out to create this real-time strategy game, and it fairly hums with gorgeous graphics, sophisticated AI and challenging scenarios for the novice and experienced player alike. The point of the game is to shepherd your fledgling civilisation to world domination, using war, trade and exploration. You start with the bare minimum to get going, and you've got to balance your people's needs with your desire to be a little Napoleon. The Age of Kings gives you a ton of new units and technologies to enrich your strategic options. Each scenario is placed accurately within history, but you're also free to create your own. The multiplayer format is robust, allowing up to nine players to share a world. When battles commence, you can take control of every aspect of your workers and soldiers, sending them running for shelter in the town centre, ordering them to defend a watchtower, or setting their combat stance to aggressive for free-for-all sword smashing fun. When you're not fighting, find your idle peasants with a mouse click and send them back to work chopping trees, rounding up sheep, fishing or mining gold and stone. As you acquire more resources, you can improve your soldier's gear and skills, start to trade more efficiently, and make life better for everyone in your empire. You can choose from 13 groups to manage, from the Japanese to the Teutons and Franks. Each group has unique units and special characteristics, making this a game that changes every time you play it. If all this sounds complicated, it is. New players may be intimidated by the range of choices, but the teaching scenarios are very helpful in conquering the controls. Age of Empires II is a sophisticated, gorgeous successor to the wildly popular original. It's a real feather in Microsoft's cap--a world-building game that will hold you captive. --Therese Littleton Features Summary When it comes to vast, kingdom-spanning ambition, you can't do better than Microsoft's Age of Empires II: The Age of Kings.

Age of Empires III (PC) Platform: Windows XP Condition: New Other versions of this game available from us: Platform: Pre-Owned/Used: Very Good Condition copies available Product Description Age of Empires III will offer gamers the next level of realism, with advanced battle physics and unparalleled visual detail. The new game picks up where Age of Empires II: Age of Kings left off, placing gamers in the position of a European power determined to explore, colonize and conquer the New World. This time period 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. Age of Empires III will once again demonstrate Ensemble Studios reputation for excellence and innovation in the real-time strategy (RTS) genre. The game will set a new standard for visual quality and amaze players with detail never before seen in an RTS. Age of Empires III will also excite strategy gamers with new game-play elements, including the concept of a ¿¿¿Home City,¿¿¿ new civilizations, units, technologies and an immersive new single-player campaign that will span three generations. Otras caracter¿¿sticas: Compatible operating systems: Microsoft Windows XP Developer: Ensemble Studios Language version: ENG Media types supported: CD Minimum RAM: 256 MB Minimum hard disk space: 2000 MB Minimum processor: 1.4GHz Minimum video card memory: 64 MB Review With all the talk of next generation consoles its somewhat ironic that the most graphically impressive new game is actually PC real-time strategy title Age of Empires III. The last game in the series was a rather clinical looking 2D isometric game but this new iteration features some of the most complex, organic looking 3D graphics ever seen on any system. Thankfully the gameplay appears just as developed as you take control of a civilisation from around the time that Age of Empires II left off in the 16th century and continues up to 1850, as you battle to take control of the New World. Gameplay is actually split between the Americas though and your home city back in Europe, which you must also maintain and upgrade in order to keep the populace happy. The most exciting element though is undoubtedly the new combat system, where the dull and mechanical "tank rushes" of the previous games have been replaced with stunning looking battles of gunpowder and sword blades as you fight angry natives and rival colonisers. As is demanded of any PC game nowadays theres also a cool sounding multiplayer mode, with the eight different civilizations you can control allowing for a large variety of different play styles. Thats if you can actually gather your wits enough to form a strategy and stop ogling the frankly incredible looking graphics. -- Harrison Dent This preview is based on an incomplete version of the game; features or problems mentioned above may not appear in the finished game.

Basically it's a siege sim with some combat and Age of Empires-style resource management thrown in. The game is set at the height of the feudal system in England; there are two missions to play through, the story-based combat mission, or the standalone economic mission. The combat mission is the most story-based of the game elements. You are a young Knight whose father has been murdered whilst trying to reunite the kingdom. But your castle is the central focus and must be defended at all costs. The idea is to build a keep, towers and battlements, which you can use to your strategic advantage and defend against the enemy's forces. In Stronghold your adversary will come ready and armed with ladders and siege engines and will know how to use them. The economic aspect of the game owes more than a little to city-building sims such as Caesar and Pharaoh and follows a pretty standard RTS resource management formula. If you want to make bread you need to grow wheat, get it milled into flour and then build some bakeries to make the bread. You can't mine gold; you make it by taxing your peasants and trading your surplus supplies and build such edifices as churches, weaponsmiths, employ soldiers for your army and install a fire brigade. Despite the apparent complexity this is a remarkably intuitive game to play. The developers have added some really great elements and (whisper this) look like they have thought about how people play an RTS and tried to eliminate those frustrating fundamentals that drive you to using the CD as a coaster. The camera is not strictly 3-D, you can view the castle from either, north, south, east or west and to make sure that you can get rid of those annoying chinks in you wall which are hidden behind trees. Graphically it looks great. And there are some really nice animations (burning buildings and rabbit mutilation aside). The castles are a work of art and you can even get your spearmen to build moats so that you can go for that classic medieval edifice look. All in all, this is definitely more than the sum of its ramparts. --Kristen Bowditch Manufacturer's DescriptionStronghold is a unique cross between city builders such as Caesar III or Sim City and a RTS in the tradition of Command & Conquer and Age of Empires. Set in medieval Europe, players establish settlements, build and manage castles and engage in siege warfare. The game incorporates much more building and "community managing" than a traditional RTS, yet allows for a more intense combat experience than city builders have featured in the past.
