Great concept
User Rating: 8 | 1701 A.D. Gold Edition PC
Great concept but takes forever to build and army and conquer other nations. The economy of this game is pretty neat too. Good have been polished a bit more for the RTS part of it. A story line and full campaign should have been added to it as well, not just a expansion. Fun to build your city and trade, but like I said, takes real thought to manage your economy and build and support your fleet and army to capture other colonies. I would like this game to be taken to another level like the game coming out " East India Company". Full 3-D and even more epic scale. The annoyance of other characters gets old after a while. A great game if you like the whole build your city and trade. Its almost like SIMS City but of the past. I gave this game an 8 because it was unlike anything I have ever played before but it had some flaws that I did not like such as not really having a Great combat engine for the hard core " build your army and burn their city to the ground" types. I would like to have seen more military units, Bigger islands such as a Main land with surrounding Island were you have to Fight off local tribes to expand, or trade with them and pay them to attack other colonies.
