Empire Earth is a real-time strategy game by Sierra On-Line and Stainless Steel Studios. The game spans 14 epochs (12,000+ years) starting from the Prehistoric Age and ending with the Nano Age. Many people describe tihs game as a mis of Civilization and Ages_of_Empires.
The game contains many unique and innovative features, including a well implemented "morale" system which directly affects individual units statistics.It also incorporates a "hero" system, which has a special unit with extraordinary combat ability which can either heal nearby units or demoralise enemy units. It also incorporates the system of "Fortresses", which allow you to store units which do not count to the population units for release when needed.
Empire Earth has an expansion called "Empire Earth: The Art of Conquest". AOC features a 15th epoch, the Space Age (which focuses on the colonization of space, and features space terrain and space combat). It also has several special powers for building civilizations, including Priest Towers (convert enemy units into your own) and Just-In-Time Manufacturing (create units immediately for a higher resource cost).
The sequel, Empire Earth 2, was featured recently at the 2004 Electronic Entertainment Expo (E3). Being developed by Mad Doc Software (the company who made the Art of Conquest expansion), because Stainless Steel is currently busy with a different project, Empire Earth 2 will feature completely revamped graphics, weather effects, as well as interactive and much more expanded maps to wage war in. It will also introduce a new strategy system in which players can map out the actions of a unit or group of units, such as giving them a route to take or positions to attack from, unlike most Real Time Strategy games in which units must be led on their route by the player directly if the player wants them to take that route. Empire Earth 2 is slated for release in August 2004.
Campaigns
Empire Earth: The Art of Conquest campaigns
Roman campaign
Pacific campaign
This campaign focuses on the Douglas MacArthur's island-hopping campaign in Pacific Ocean during WW2.
Asian campaign
This campaign uses The Art of Conquest's 15th epoch. China teamed with Japan to build a colony in Mars. However, as the colony develops, the relationship between the "Martians" (people living in colony in Mars) and those in Earth soured, and inter-planetary wars broke out.
A spaceship named 'Yamato' appeared in the campaign, presumably named based on the Japanese battleship Yamato in WW2 and Space_Battleship_Yamato.
