- Until now, the colonies of
the New World have avoided the squabbles
of their home countries. But as the death of the Spanish monarch
ignites a crisis of succession, Europe realizes that the resources
and markets of North America may prove pivotal to victory.
So the battle is joined on this side of the Atlantic. England,
Spain, and
France struggle for supremacy from Hudson Bay to the Caribbean
Sea; from their European shores to the mighty Mississippi. There
are both allies and enemies amongst the mercurial native tribes,
and in certain colonies which suspect that Independence could
end foreign meddling once and for all . . . .
This game is ideally suited for the Americans, but all nations
are playable (try the three European nations in a mutliplayer
game!). The Indian tribes will be hard pressed to preserve their
ancestral homes against the tide of newcomers from across the
sea.
