16 campaigns, 17 nations, 76 missions, 150 units, and 321 years of American History.
American Conquest + Fight Back, one of the best attempts to recreate early American history in a strategy game, is now available at GOG.com for only $5.99.
Between 1492, when Columbus discovered America, and 1813, when the war of 1812 had ended, seventeen nations, from England to France--from Spain to the Sioux Nation--battled for domination over the American continent (or just some of its parts). Sure, you may be familiar with Pizarro's Expedition or the American War of Independence, but Alaskan campaign of the Russians or finding El Dorado by Ambrosius Ehinger will definitely teach you something about both tactics and history.
American Conquest + Fight Back follows the path of its predecessor Cossacks and mixes war strategy, battle tactics, and a simple economy. During the game you will expand your forts, increase your economic and scientific potential, and finally control larger and larger armies in epic battles. Gameplay mechanics were also improved by adding a diplomacy system and something resembling a morale system as your units may now even flee the battlefield when loosing heavily, while officers and military drummers can keep your battle formations stronger.
Whether you scream "Hoka Hey!", "¡Tierra y Libertad!" or simply "Yee Haw!" when going into battle, American Conquest + Fight Back is one of the finest history-based strategies for PC, especially when the game’s only $5.99 on GOG.com
