Windows Vista Update

Age of Empires III Game Windows Vista PC:  The Age of Empires III expansion finally has a name: The WarChiefs. The expansion, whose existence was officially revealed last month, will build upon last year's best-selling, historically themed real-time strategy game.

However, while Age of Empires III let you play as one of the various European powers colonizing America, The WarChiefs will introduce Native American civilizations that you can play as. There's other new content as well, including a new campaign and improvements and additions across the board.

HOME CITY: This revolutionary new feature to the RTS landscape is incorporated into all aspects of Age of Empires III — from Campaign to Multiplayer — and is unlike anything you've experienced before.

Much like the persistent character from a role-playing game that encourages you to keep playing, your Home City is an important support system to your efforts in the New World. During a game, your Home City can regularly send you supplies or military reinforcements.

You are the leader of your colony, but your success brings glory back to Mother Europe. The more games you play, and the better you do, the more powerful your Home City will become. Every few games, you gain the ability to both upgrade and customize your Home City:

Upgrade your city by unlocking new types of soldiers or buildings, or improving those you already have.

Broaden your tech tree in whatever direction most fits your play style – invest in warships, native alliances, cavalry, artillery or economy.

Customize your Home City by changing the appearance of buildings, the weather or even the types of people who walk, work and perform in its streets.

Throughout a game, as well as in between games, you can visit your Home City to watch its citizens go about their lives, get an opinion on how you're doing, plot your next move or just marvel at the beautiful sunset.
