The partnership that brought
you Age of Mythology is back together again as Eagle Games brings you the
boardgame version of Age of Empires III!
It is the late 15th century and a new age is dawning. While
searching for a new trade route to India, explorers have discovered a new land.
The first reports tell of strange creatures, exotic people, and fabulous wealth.
Captains and adventurers flock to these new lands in search of gold. They are
quickly followed by colonists, soldiers, merchants, and missionaries all seeking
wealth of one kind or another. Colonies begin to spring up, and soon competition
among the great nations of Europe begins.
Take the role of one of Europe’s colonial powers and stake
your claim in the New World. As the leader of your nation, there are many paths
that lead to victory: Discover and colonize new lands; acquire trade goods that
will build your economy; develop new technologies and infrastructure in your
home country; build your merchant fleet to dominate the trade routes; and build
your army to defend what is rightfully yours!
The triumphant revel in riches and glory, while the vanquished
become a footnote in the history books. It is an Age of Discovery...it is an Age
of Empires!
