Sid Meier's Civilization IV: Colonization
Genre: Historic Turn-Based Strategy
Publisher: 2K Games
Developer: Firaxis
Platforms: PC Exclusive
Release Date: September 22, 2008
Official Site: www.firaxis.com/games/game_detail.php?gameid=21

A game of Civilization IV can end in numerous ways, most of which don't require the complete annihilation or subjugation of every "competing" culture on the map. Perhaps this is why people have been pining so long for a redux of Sid Meier's Colonization. Released in '94, Colonization was starkly different from the original Civilization, on which it was based. Mainly, this is because it was programmed with on only one possible endgame: secession, which by extension leads to a whole lot of warfare.

Civilization IV: Colonization, a standalone game based on Civ IV, takes a similar tack. Forget cultural and diplomatic victories; if you want to be a winner in this abstract, brutal simulacrum of the Age of Discovery, you're going to have to eradicate the armies sent by the crown to quash the rabble you've spent turns and turns rousing. It's a lot to ask of a young nation birthed by one soldier and one pioneer, floating toward the "new" world on a lone caravel.

Precolonialism

As the English, Dutch, French or Spanish, your main objective in a game of Colonization is to win independence from your mother country. You achieve this by enacting a few laborious steps. The first is simple: you have to found a colony, which should be your first order of business the minute your ship touches ground. Next, you have to foment "rebel sentiment" in your colony by generally thriving and surviving in the face of your oppressive foreign rulers (and don't worry -- you can check how close to the target figure of 50 percent you are at any time).

Finally, you have to thwart your motherland's efforts of maintaining control by eradicating all of the ground forces sent to quell your rebellion, and do so before any other nation's colony. Depending on how coolly you've played it, the actual size of the royal expeditionary force you'll have to contend with when you finally get around to penning your national anthem will vary -- churlish behavior, like ignoring royal taxes, will cause the crown to grow its army more quickly. Consider this before you decide to throw a few harbor parties at the expense of the kingdom's exports.

Join or Die

Right after you hit the big bell-shaped button that causes your colony to revolt, you'll have some big decisions to make. A series of either/or questions pop up immediately after you declare independence, the collective results of which will comprise your nation's constitution. Will you support slavery? Enforce the separation of church and state? Model yourself after your monarchist rulers, or opt for a representative democracy? Each of these elements will bestow certain global properties on your colony. If your state is against slavery, for instance, you'll enjoy a bonus to the population of each of your settlements.

It wouldn't be a Civilization game without the ability to engage in self-serving diplomacy. By the same token, it wouldn't be a game about the European colonization of the Americas without the exploitation of native civilizations. Colonization tackles both in turn. You can freely engage in trade or enact treaties with any groups you encounter, native or colonist. Furthermore, there are skills that can only be taught to your units by native cultures. The furrier trade, for instance, can only be taught by the Inca Empire.

From the looks of it, your initial incursions on native soil upon starting a game will be met with a magnanimous response from the culture already present: You'll able to set up your first colony and earn a living off its land without attracting the culture's ire. Any subsequent expansions, though, will stress the relationship, requiring you to wield either diplomacy or guns, germs and steel to reconcile your differences.

Currency Faces

In spite of the work that the founding fathers of the United States put forth in petitioning support overseas for their revolution, you won't be able to grovel for favor at the foot of foreign thrones in Colonization. Your motherland's rivals, despite how awful their relations may be across the theoretical pond, simply aren't programmed to sit at the negotiating table. You will, however, be able to attract some notable personages to your cause locally. Think of Colonization's "Founding Fathers" as you would "Great People" in Civ. In order to win them over, you have to fulfill certain requirements as a colony, and once they're in the fold, they'll sit on your continental congress and guide your fledgling nation's progress by conferring stat boosts and other abstract properties.

According to our host, every multiplayer mode from Civ 4 will make it into Colonization. The game will also ship with some mod tools and an enhanced graphics engine (our host pointed out the "beautiful water" enabled by shader 1.1 support on numerous occasions). As far as release date goes, "this fall" was about all we were able to get, so expect an update in the relative near future.

Features

Classic Game Design Rebuilt for the Modern Era: Usher forth a new generation of Sid Meier’s Colonization with gameplay built on the award winning Civilization IV engine, providing the beautiful visuals, famously addictive gameplay and endless fun that are synonymous with Sid Meier strategy games.

Pandemic is laying siege to Middle Earth this fall with Lord of the Rings: Conquest. Developed by the team who made both Star Wars: Battlefront titles, Conquest follows a similar formula. The difference being that this time the team is tapping into the rich lore of LOTR. Conquest is doing some things no other Ring game has attempted.

You begin Conquest on the side of good, battling in famed battles from all three LOTR movies plus a few un-filmed battles mentioned in the books. Each scenario has you taking on the role of different characters, all of whom fall into four basic types: warrior, archer, scout, and mage. You can choose any class you like. Each has a unique set of weapons, skills and powers. You can get through a level with any one character type, though there are missions where the scout's invisibility cloak is more helpful than the warrior's flaming sword attacks.

Pandemic showed off two sections from the third movie. I began in Pelennor Field as the allies of Sauron laid siege to Minas Tirith. As a scout, I was at the mercy of many a mounted enemy. Rather than taking on direct combat, it was best to use my invisibility cloak to sneak across the battlefield. If killed, you return to the start of the map, though the battle continues to rage on. In this fashion, you won't really be knocked out of a battle, but if you have to complete a task in a certain amount of time, death can be a major blow to you hopes of success.

The goal in Pelennor Field is to destroy the siege towers attacking Minas Tirith. A scout isn't expected to lay down a bunch of sword swipes to destroy a massive siege tower. Instead, you just need to get close enough to set off a flare near the tower. This tells others where to aim the catapults. Getting to the tower is a little tricky as each is guarded by a troll. A scout will get squished by these behemoths. But you can stand off to the side and draw the troll's attention. Then when he comes to smash you, go invisible and slip past him to the siege tower.

For the second section of the demo I took on the role of a warrior. Set inside the walls of Minas Tirith, you must defend against the siege as it breaks through the front gate. There is a large circle in the open hall and you shall not let anyone pass. Combat in Conquest is simple, button-mashing fun. It's the standard light and heavy attacks. Score some combos and you can unleash your true power in the form of fiery sword slashes.

Once the horde is held back, it's time to head upstairs and protect the outer wall. The battle is incredibly hectic. And that's just playing alone. Bring in some more friends either online or through four-player split-screen and things should get really chaotic on screen. Your goal is to destroy the siege ladders that are now allowing scores of orcs to flood into Minas Tirith. Burning the siege ladders is the easiest way to get rid of them. To do that, you need to power up your warrior and unleash a flaming sword attack. The fire spreads and the tower goes caput.

The heroic campaign of Lord of the Rings: Conquest should be fun. The gameplay mechanics are very simple, but enjoyable. And if Pandemic can smooth out the animations and snap the framerate into place, playing through the heroic campaign should be fun. But it's what comes after you complete the first campaign that really has me excited. Get Frodo to Mount Doom, save Middle Earth and your reward is unlocking the evil campaign.

The evil campaign imagines what would happen if Frodo failed and the ring fell into Sauron's hands. You get to play as the villains of Middle Earth. Sauron, Saruman, orcs and even ring wraiths become your tools to lay waste to the world. Ensure the one true king meets one grizzly death, then burn the Shire and eradicate hope from the world. It should be fun.

Along with the two campaigns, there will be a number of multiplayer modes. Pandemic isn't saying much about these yet, but expect the return of modes from the Battlefront games. There will also be a few new modes. One of them sounds pretty awesome. One player is Frodo and the rest play ring wraiths. The longer Frodo survives, the more points he earns.

Look for more details on Conquest's evil campaign next week. Lord of the Rings: Conquest ships for PC, PS3 and Xbox 360 this fall.
