Imperialism 2 For Windows 10

Imperialism II: Age of Exploration is an outstanding turn-based strategy game that expands on the premise set in its predecessor, Frog City/SSI's underrated Imperialism.

The game is set in real world history this time as opposed to a fictional period in the first game: specifically, you are one of the European Great Powers at the time of exploration and conquest of the New World. Your goal is to dominate Europe using the tools of conquest and diplomacy, and exploiting the riches and exotic resources of the New World. You might become a great conqueror, in the tradition of Cortez, or you can do business with the natives, and shield them from the other Great Powers. Whichever strategy you pursue, you will need to build a strong economy, develop what resources you can, and trade for the rest on the world market.

Similar to Imperialism, Imperialism II is a game of interdependencies between economic, diplimacy, and trade. Although the real-world setting may make the game more interesting to play, it also 'bootstraps' the game -- forcing it to deal with the perennial conflict between realism and playability. Proponents of realism in historical games will certainly be annoyed at some 'ahistorical' outcomes and the fact that Imperialism II presents many elements in the abstract.

Nonetheless, the game's excellent AI and addictive gameplay should be enough to make every strategy fan happy. You need to build a strong labor force, and recognize when your self-sufficient economy needs to expand via trade and military expansion. The New World elements are not meshed very well with the game-- it is as if the designer took the engine from Imperialism intact, and added New World exploration to it just to make the game different, without trying to assemble the interdependencies that the first game excels at. Certainly aspects such as dealing with the Natives could be better exploited and interlinked to other elements. Still, they present a nice addition to the game, and proper New World exploitation wil provide a handsome return to finance your expansion at home.

With an excellent gameplay and a better AI than Imperialism, this sequel is a must-play for all strategy fans. It was shipped with some embarrassing bugs that were fortunately fixed in a later patch (you can download the cracked patch below). While not as elegant as the first game, Imperialism II ranks as one of the best strategy games ever made. Two thumbs up!

Imperialism II: Age of Exploration is a turn-based strategy computer game developed by Frog City Software and published by Strategic Simulations, Inc. (SSI) in 1999. It is the successor to the 1997 game Imperialism. In Imperialism II, the player starts as ruler of a 16th century European country, and must build an empire.

Since 2001 Ubisoft owns the rights to the Imperialism trademark.^[2]

Gameplay[editedit source]

Imperialism II is a turn based4X game, where you have to 'eXplore, eXpand, eXploit, and eXterminate' in order to achieve victory. The game however focus on the economic aspect^[3] by introducing the concepts of variable worker productivity, variable terrain productivity, labor allocation, resource allocation and logistics.

The economic aspect[editedit source]

Allocative dilemmas[editedit source]

The game presents the player with an economic problem that is composed of 3 allocative dilemmas plus the necessity to supply food for workers and military units plus the necessity to finance scientific research.

1. - Transportation dilemma: Where to allocate the limited transportation capacity of the merchant marine? The options can be to transport raw materials and/or precious materials from the New World, to import goods or to transport fish.
2. - Labor allocation dilemma: Given the collected raw materials, which semi-finished materials should the workers produce?
3. - Resource allocation dilemma: Which use should be given to the semi-finished materials produced by the labor force?

File:Labor - Imperialism II game.jpg

Raw materials which depend terrain improvements to be extracted and on logistics to be transported have to be processed by workers into semi-finished materials. Those semi-finished materials can then be turned into units or workers, used to increase terrain productivity or used to sustain workers of higher productivity. Logistics also depends on semi-finished materials for expansion through additions to the merchant marine and improvements to the road network.

On Imperialism II raw materials have to be transported first and then processed, access is not enough. In order to build a unit or an improvement a specific quantity of specific raw materials needs to be transported and processed into semi-finished materials before it becomes possible to build a unit. An example, to build 1 Ship-of-the-line unit the following quantities of semi-finished materials are required:

File:Military units - Imperialism II game.jpg

• 14 timber + 8 bronze + 4 cloth + 1 worker

This requirement represents in raw-material terms the following:

• 28 wood + 8 tin ore + 8 copper ore + 12 wool

But in order to build another unit, such as a Carbine Cavalry a different mix is needed:

• 3 cloth + 6 steel + 5 horses + 1 worker

In raw material terms this necessity would mean:

• 6 iron ore + 6 coal + 5 horses + 10 wool

Labor productivity and food supply[editedit source]

File:Productivity - Imperialism II game.jpg

Every worker, ship and military unit require one unit of food (wheat, meat or fish) every turn. Because of this necessity, enlarging the labor force depends on the increase of the food supply. Increasing the food supply demands semi-finished materials in order to improve farms or expand the merchant marine which can transport fish.

Labor has 4 different levels of productivity. Each higher level of productivity requires a unique type of luxury. This element of the game allows the player to increase total production without enlarging the labor force which would require raising the food supply.

Levels of Productivity

Worker	Peasant	Apprentice	Journeyman	Master
Productivity	1	4	6	8
Luxury Consumed	None	Refined sugar	Cigar	Fur hat

The Treasury[editedit source]

Imperialism 2 Windows 10

Avoiding bankruptcy and keeping the Empire solvent is also a challenge. That's because the Empire's treasury finances scientific research, military invasions and the importing of goods. It also pays for the creation of civilian units and for the upgrade of the work force. On the Diplomatic arena the treasury finances grants to foreign nations and trade subsidies.

The treasury has as sources of income the mining of precious material, the exporting of goods and overseas profits. Overseas profits is income generated by the export of raw-material collected from foreign lands bought by the Empire.

Income from precious materials

Spices	Silver	Gold	Gems	Diamonds
Income per unit every turn	$50	$100	$200	$300	$400

Victory Condition[editedit source]

The game is won when any of the 'great powers' (France, Holland, Spain, England, Portugal or Sweden) controls more than one-half of the Old World. Control over other countries can be achieved by conquest or by diplomatic means (influencing 'minor nations' Denmark, Germany, Ireland, Italy, Scotland, Switzerland and even the 'great powers', so they would finally join the player's empire), or most often a combination of the two. Control of the New World is not relevant for the victory condition.

Differences from Imperialism I[editedit source]

The main novelty in Imperialism II compared to its predecessor, is the addition of the New World, which is unknown and has to be explored.^[4] Unlike in Imperialism I, only part of the world is visible at the start and this part is the Old World. The other half of the world is the New World, which must be explored by ships and explorers. The New World has resources that don't exist in the Old World; those resources are the precious materials (spices, silver, gold, gems and diamonds) and the luxuries (sugar cane, tobacco and fur).

Another difference between the games is that Imperialism II starts in the 16th Century during the Age of exploration whereas Imperialism starts in the 19th century during the Industrial Revolution.^[5]

Reception[editedit source]

Imperialism II received favorable reviews from game critics. Most of the reviews were written in 1999 that means that unfortunately some of them are no longer available, included among the unavailable ones are the reviews from PC Gameworld, Computer Games Magazine, Computer Gaming World and PC Gamer.

• Game Rankings - 84/100 score - Average based on 15 different reviews of the game.^[6]
• Gamespot - 8/10 score - The review wrote: ' Imperialism II is a more refined and interesting use of the same system' and added: 'Frog City has done an excellent job of it with Imperialism II.' The food supply requirement was criticized and called 'a bit tedious'.^[7][8]
• IGN - 8.4/10 score - This review called the game 'impressive' and said 'It's complex as hell, but it's a lot of fun'.^[9]
• ZDNet - 5/5 score- 'With deeper gameplay, tactical combat, and AI, the new game system is easier to learn and play than the original.'^[10]
• GamePro - 4.5/5 score - 'A great update to a great strategy game.'^[11]
• CNET's Gamecenter.com - 8/10 score - 'In the long term, Imperialism II: Age of Exploration provides epic strategic gaming with random maps and multiplayer support.'^[12]
• Adrenaline Vault - 4/5 score - 'It’s a solid title that nicely combines some quality features into an attractive title. [T]hose of you who thirst for the thrill of constant combat might feel bogged down in some of the other elements.'^[13]
• Strategy Gaming Online - 8.6/10 score - 'In every aspect, then, Imp2 is an improvement over Imp1, which should give some idea of really how good a game this is'. This review however considered excessive the amount of importance given to the economic aspect of the game.^[14]
• Tom vs. Bruce from the Games for Windows: The Official Magazine - Imperialism II was featured on their column in the March 2007 issue.^[15] Although it wasn't a review Tom Chick wrote: 'Until Civilization IV came out, it [Imperialism II] was my favorite turn-based strategy game.' Bruce Geryk also expressed his opinion: 'Imperialism II is probably my favorite game of the 1990's. Since it's my favorite, it kind of goes without saying that it must be the best.'^[16]
