Description

1503 A.D. – Return to the dawn of a New World in an epic saga of adventure and discovery. As a young lad, you’ve heard tales of opportunity and unimaginable power and fortune in this New World. Now grown up, you’re ready to embark on and venture into these unfamiliar lands of the Renaissance world in 1503 A.D., an exciting new PC title that blends the action of real-time strategy with the depth of empire building. You will begin your journey by setting sail for a New World in anticipation of seeking out wealth and power and settling a new nation and empire. Along the way, you will encounter incredibly detailed environments in four varying climate zones and compete against computer controlled players. More than that, you will interact with nine different cultures like the Africans, Aztecs and Native Americans. Each culture will have their own traits and characteristics, including their preferences as to where they start their kingdom and what sorts of trade goods they prefer. Explore stunningly detailed environments to establish colonies as you seek out wealth and power. Watch those colonies grow while you create trade and diplomatic ties with neighboring cultures. Engage in combat on land and at sea to protect your colonies.
