An 86 average from its 263 true believers. Slow-burn strategy: fantasy, historical, tough calls, and the sweet pain of one more turn. Play it solo first. The multiplayer will still be there when you're done.
About this game
Rule your land and dominate the world with unparalleled freedom, depth and historical accuracy. Write a new history of the world and build an empire for the ages.
Start before the Renaissance on a map of the world as it was then. Choose from any of hundreds of nations and then rule up to the Age of Revolutions. Or, if you wish, start your game at any date in the span, with historical monarchs and other leaders.
