The award-winning hit of a few years back that changed our perception of strategy games
forever is now followed up by a sequel that expands the scope of one of the
greatest strategy games ever made. From the medieval battles of Jeanne D'Arc to
the fantastic empires of the Incas to the flaming wars of Napoleon, Europa
Universalis II invites you to take the seat as the ruler of a superpower for
400 epic years.
Now for the first time in history you get the chance to take on the role of
the colonizing might of Spain, the feudal warlords of Samurai Japan as well as
the small trading nation of Genoa. In a game where you battle against one of the
most advanced AIs or meet a multitude of human opponents over LAN or the
Internet--history is truly in your hands...
The sequel includes new features, new player nations and a huge period of
history to sink your teeth into. The game starts in 1419--the 100 years war
between France and England has been going on for over 80 years and the English
troops are outside the walls of Paris--and ends with the rise and eventual fall
of one of Europe's greatest strategists, Napoleon.
