The usual chain of activities involve building dwellings for your peasant workforce and to gather resources like wood, food, and gold, stone, coal and iron from mines which the player will have to construct at designated areas. While the difference between playing for the European factions and the native American Indians are discernible in terms of military strategy, the basics are the same. As in 'Cossacks', American Conquest allows the building of a base with which the player will conduct military and economic activities to prepare for victory in a scenario. All three titles are available together as the American Conquest Chronicles.Īmerican Conquest's basic gameplay mechanics and economic factors are shared with the earlier GSC Game World title Cossacks: European Wars and its add-ons. The latest installment in the series is American Conquest: Divided Nation. There is also an expansion pack produced for American Conquest, called American Conquest: Fight Back and a gold edition, which has both the original and expansion pack bundled together. It is set between the 15th and the early 19th centuries in the American continents. American Conquest is a real-time strategy game developed by Ukrainian GSC Game World who is the developer of Cossacks: European Wars and published by German CDV.
