About

Real-time strategy set during European colonization of the Americas from roughly 1500 to 1850. You gather resources, build settlements, and command armies as one of several European powers expanding into North and South America. The Home City mechanic lets you call in shipments of units and upgrades from your colonial homeland between matches. Combat uses physics-based destruction and formation tactics across randomly generated maps. The single-player campaign spans three generations of the fictional Black family, starting with a Knight of St. John defending Malta in the 1500s before chasing rumors of the Fountain of Youth through the Caribbean and New Spain. Each act shifts the playable faction—Knights, mercenaries, then the early United States. You'll control special units like Spanish lancers or German war wagons depending on the scenario. For players who want base-building and army management tied to the colonial era withoutrose-tinted nostalgia.
