Hints

In Old World you will explore the map with Scouts, expand your Nation by founding Cities on City Sites, exploit Harvestable Resources and Luxuries, and recruit armies to exterminate rival Nations and Tribes (or negotiate and trade with them). When starting a new game the map is yet unexplored, awaiting discovery.

The Terrain units more order will have an impact on how far they can move each turn. Hills, Sand, crossing a River, Scrub and Trees all add an extra movement point. Rivers and Roads within owned territory require only 2/3 of a movement point.

Unit types

There are two types of units:

• Melee units need to be adjacent to an enemy unit to attack it

City sites

City sites are the only locations where Settlers can found new Cities. A city site can be claimed by a nation by moving a Unity onto it.

Barbarians

Barbarians occupy City-States like other Tribes, but they are in a permanent state of War with all Nations. They have a number of special units: Marauders, Skirmishers, Elite Marauders and Elite Skirmishers.
