Admirals: Caribbean Empires vs Europa Universalis II
Admirals: Caribbean Empires
Admirals: Caribbean Empires is a brand-new, browser-based strategy/tycoon game developed by Travian. Set in the 17th century, during the Age of Exploration, you’ll need to live up to your new role as a captain and earn Glory for your King and country by building a trading empire, expanding your fleet, and taking on the enemies of the King.So, basically, what you’ll be doing is to buy certain profitable goods from one port and then shipping the goods to another port to sell them off for a much more lucrative price. You can set up multiple trade routes and the ships will automatically run the routes until you put a stop to it. You can also explore the Caribbean with your scoutships to discover new cities and floating loot. However, you'll need to be careful of the pirates and rival players that roam the seas. Unless you're well-equipped, your ship may not survive the encounter!
Interestingly, the game has a political aspect to it as well. You can be appointed as a governor of a city and launch attacks on other cities in an attempt to bring those cities into the fold.
In short, Admirals: Caribbean Empires is a pretty fun and entertaining game that lets you build your trading empire in the Caribbean in the 17th century, battle pirates and navigate the political intrigue of the era if you so wish to. It’s definitely not the sort of game that you can play for hours at a stretch but instead, you can check in now and then to modify your trade routes and explore new areas on the map using your scoutships.
Europa Universalis II
Europa Universalis II is what many have deemed as the best sequel to Europa Universalis. Set during the period where the hundred-year war occured, you'll need to lead your country's expansion and guide the growth of its domestic and foreign policies, while engaging in religious battles and sending expeditions to beat the competition and claim large swathes of the new world. Similar to the original game, you'll get to, depending on your decisions, interact with historical figures and momentous events (some of which though are special, random events).However, this time around, the game has a revamped and frankly much improved system for diplomacy, trade, military and overall country development. You can even demand tribute or knock out deals in order to make peace with a foreign nation. As religion is often the cause of war, this aspect has been greatly expanded in Europa Universalis II, requiring you to actually deal with cultural differences between nations of different religions.
In some way, Europa Universalis II managed to not only build on the game design used in the first game; it has also introduced a series of new features of its own. This is exactly why the game has gotten critical acclaimation from both fans and critics alike back when it was first released. So, if you love grand strategy games, you'll want to check this game out.
