Command one of
eight mighty powers grappling to conquer the New World in this new
generation of the landmark Age of Empires series. Age of Empires III isn't just one of the best-looking real-time
strategy games ever, it's one of the best-looking games of any kind
ever. Much like a persistent character in a role-playing game,
your Home City is a support system that regularly sends you supplies or
military reinforcements. As you get better, your Home City becomes
stronger, allowing you to unlock new types of soldiers or buildings,
broaden your tech tree, and customize the appearance of your city. You
can even visit your Home City to watch its citizens, get an opinion on
how you're doing, or plot your next move. You're in control of
large and diverse armies of infantry, cavalry, artillery, Native
American warriors, mercenaries, and ships. You can assign different
formations to your army, like Volley, Charge, or Bombard, or have the
game automatically choose the most appropriate formation for you.
The real-time physics cause infantry struck by cannon balls to get
thrown like rag dolls, perhaps even over a cliff into the water. Cannon
balls bounce and ricochet. Shingles, shutters, and whole towers may fly
off a building and interact with the terrain. And, with hundreds of
unique combat animations, you'll never see the same battle twice.
Tone mapping gives scenes a photorealistic look by balancing colors in
a scene. Units and buildings cast realistic shadows based on the sun's
position. Water glistens like water, foams near the shore, and
reflections change with the viewing angle, the angle of sunlight, and
the motion of the water. Steep cliffs jut from the terrain like
paintings from the American Southwest.
