The units and buildings are all historically accurate and are generally represented correctly within the game.Īge of Empires III doesn't hold many surprises for any player familiar with the RTS genre, but it does have a few interesting unique mechanics.
Spanish elite units, for example have the Espada Rodelero, Garrochista Lancer, and Tercio Pikeman which no other Nation has access to. Each nation has specialties and unique units / buildings. Players gather resources, building buildings and raise up armies to oppose their enemies on the map. Players choose one of eight playable nations and progress through building a colony city and raising it up through time from the Discovery Age up to the Imperial age.
Age of Empires is a long standing RTS with a great pedigree and the third edition is no different.
