The game offers in my opinion the best sea battles in that kind of strategy games, with great design and interesting options such as the kind of bullets you can use. With this game you learn about the ships that were used in that time such as galions, sloops or goelettes. Its like a History class with lots of fun. Buying and selling goods is exciting and not so easy since their price might change. With up to twenty fleets you can deploy, you get a lot of work. The game is very original and different from the command and conquer way. Business talent needed! There are lots of products to deal with like gold, ivory and silk. It makes me want to learn more about this part of History we don't know much about. It was the begining of international commerce and globalization! People started to live with products from the far side of the world like we do today. I would have liked storms at sea and more interactions with the neutrals, but maybe there will be a sequel! It would be so nice to develop details like they did with Europa Universalis III. I recommend the game. It is fun and not expensive.

C'est un bon jeu qui retrace le commerce de l'époque moderne avec les Indes. C'est assez novateur mais une grand epartie du jeu se passe sur la carte, et les ports reconstituées en 3d ne sont pas très utiles.

J'aime bien les combats navals qui sont assez fidèles et qui offre pas mal de possibilité car ce sont des combats en temps réels. La grande campagne est intéressante mais la durée de vie du jeu est relativement moyenne. Le problème est qu'à la longue, cela devient un peu lassant car répétitif de voir toujours les mêmes choses arriver.

On peut que quelques grandes nations maritimes. Il aurait été sympa d'en avoir plus.

Malgré ces défauts, on y joue avec plaisir car l'idée est novatrice et change par rapport à beaucoup de jeux aux thèmes identiques.
