Empire Earth 1 is the first and best game of all the EE series.
My wife and I have been playing this game for years and it is SO Replayably fun! We have this game on cd but eversince GOG put this game up for sale we installed it and click an icon and play for about 2 days 4 hours a day to kill off the tougher civilizations on the huge maps! Great fun!! We ally with each other and kill cpmputer civilizations for hours on end :)
The good thing about resources are the nodes never disappear, except the small pumpkin and fish patches. You can gather food, gold, iron, stone, and wood during the whole time from prehistoric to the space age.
Farming is important for the food it provides, most but not all units require food to create. The graineries can be stuffed with 8 workers for extra production.
Tens of thousands of each resource is gathered during our games.
We love the voices all the units have like the military "OH MY EYE" when they get hurt LOL.
Peasants say "Yes my lord" among other things. The naval units "All Hands on Deck" is amusing too.
My wife taught me about trebuchet's are really deadly behind stone walls lobbing rocks towards they enemy :), She said the stone walls are cheaper than towers to build.
We always choose custome civilizations because. Pathfinding, citizen speed, gold and iron mining, tower range and damage, siege weapon rat of fire, range and attack are all good things to select for your civilization.
The other EE games just dont match up to this first in the series RTS GOLDEN CLASSIC!!
So Jody want to play Empire Earth today? She replies "Yes we can :"
