not sure which section of the forum to post this so I made a guess as to where these questions should be posted to. ok, so I have recently looked into or info gathered the features and what type of game this is during this year or late last year and may end up buying empire earth plus it's expansion set with mods OR empire earth II+expansion/s with mods OR empire earth III+ expansion/s with mods as it seems to be the dream game I always wanted. Empire earth 1 with it's expansion set is very similar to the caveman to cosmos mod on this forum except instead of playing threw the ages/eras by a click based one turn at a time using a mouse, You/the player, play threw the ages/eras in real time strategy which is just like playing Warcraft or StarCraft. Also I am sort of tired of the click one turn at a time and because empire earth plays like Warcraft/StarCraft. I think I would enjoy it more or have more fun then playing caveman to cosmos because it might save a lot more time on my hands due to the nature of the gameplay(Warcraft/starcraft style), help me think on my feet, help me to think faster when I am playing the game so it will be more of a challenge, especially on a hard difficulty level. This game is much older so I think it would work better on my 2013 or 2014 labtop because my labtop has much more memory then the pc's or labtops so there would be more room for expansions sets and mods. Also I am thinking because the game requires less memory to run on my labtop due to the game being over 5 years old, it would load much faster because it has a older more simpler design, has older graphics then the civ4 caveman to cosmos mod most recent update, faster game speed/loading and less difficult to mod or create new mods. I passed this game up in the far past because of the game's name and/or front picture/s but never realized it was this great or like the civilization type games with sci-fi contents/features which appeals to me. Because of the games name and/or front pic/s, I though thought/assumed it was some crappy war game spinoff/copier of Rome total war, virtual board game risk or something like that which I had 0 or no interest in playing at all. I guess the old saying "do not judge a book by its cover" has proven to be wise for me so the same can be said for video/pc/counsel games as well, any way onto the questions now.
which empire earth( 1 2 or 3) with expansions and/or mods is better overall? so far I think it is empire earth 1 with it's expansion set and maybe a mod add on that allows for sci fi megastructure underwater cities with future sea stuff like special underwater tunnel roads, mega high tech underwater mines to be built in the first or second future epoch/era like in the call to power civ game which is non existent or doesn't have those features in empire earth. I asked someone if there is sci fi underwater sea city/colonies in empire earth 1 elsewhere and apparently there is a basic mod for empire earth 1 that allows for cities to be built on or in the ocean. can someone take a look at this mod and take it up/work on it to develop the features of what I have mentioned above about sci fi underwater sea cities/ sci fi sea stuff and implement it into the game?
are there intelligent space aliens/extraterrestrial civilizations from different planets or star systems as your next rivals once you reach the last future era/epoch/space era/age in empire earth1?
what types of government is there to choose from in empire earth? or if there is no governments then is there a mod/s for this that adds governments in the game? I could not find info on this at all.
Is there more then one way to win in this game for example a diplomatic victory where all the nations/civilizations in the game join your civilization by signing a piece treaty and all love your civ based on the civilizations mood's effected by your passed dealings with the other civs? or perhaps owning 80% of the map or planet and not just by conquering all of the civilizations in the game?
