DESCRIPTION

The distinct real-time strategy Rise of Nations receives a Big Huge expansion pack with the release of Thrones & Patriots. Developed at the Brian Reynolds-founded Big Huge Games studio, this add-on includes six new nations, 20 more units, a variety of new single- and multiplayer campaigns, and an important enhancement to the original game's governing system. The expansion pack's Government feature allows any nation to choose its system of government — a factor that can have major effects on resource management and unit performance. Rise of Nations: Thrones & Patriots is designed to bolster the main games' capacity for complex strategy and multi-tiered nation building, while maintaining the fast-paced race to global domination that helps the original stand out from the crowd of historically based RTS games. ~ T.J.

“More nations, option to add your own government type which offered different customization to the individual nations. Nothing in particular that was innovative, just carried the trend of the first. Still fun.”
