Throughout time, there has been one fact that tends to repeat itself: a conflict of interest leads to a conflict of weapons. In this case, theres an international race for who can settle the New World first. Welcome to Age of Empires III. Eight civilizations, one great continent, zero chance of sharing. When the dust settles and the corpses fertilize the ground, will it be your flag being raised? Or will it be draped over your grave? Age of Empires III follows the tradition of its predecessors, combining fast action with strategic thinking at every step. In addition to the new card system, even the same civilization can be customized and tweaked to fit your play style. IGN has covered the grounds from Delaware to California, and we bring the strategies and tips to you with our patented accuracy! In this guide, youll find: Civilizations:
Basic weaknesses and strengths of each civilization, and which of the Basic Three strategies work best with them. Be sure to read this if you planning on playing against other players online. Cards:
