Description: Rise of Nations is a new historical real-time strategy game from Big Huge Games' Brian Reynolds, designer of the PC game classic Civilization II. For the first time ever, gamers will experience the pulse-pounding thrill and speed of real-time gaming combined with the epic scope and depth of turn-based strategy games. The game brings to life 6,000 years of history, from the ancient age to the information age - not just in warfare but in city building, trade and diplomacy. Rise of Nations allows players to create new cities, improve their city infrastructure and expand national borders. Players have the option to win through military or quasi military strategies, using everything from slingshots to cannons to nuclear missiles. Despite the long timeline in the game, Rise of Nations is designed with the casual audience in mind, meaning gamers will be able to move through the game quickly without playing for hours. Minimize
