East India Company - The worlds most powerful trading empire

http://www.eic-game.com/

East India Company is a naval war strategy game based on the 18th century East India Companies. Players will attempt to build the worlds most powerful trading empire in a breathtaking cinematic environment. Offering both single and multiplayer modes, players will fight, manage and rule to build immense trading empire spanning from Europe to the Far East using a wide array of ship classes. The game will feature fierce naval battles and direct command of individual ships.

In East India Company the innovative Direct Command mode during naval battles allows players to take direct control over a single ship, giving players previously unseen control over the ships actions during battle. Players are able to toggle between the more traditional RTS mode where you control multiple ships and the Direct Command mode where you take the command of an individual ship.


In Direct Command mode the players can toggle through different views from 3rd person view behind the ship to a 1st person view that puts the player in the middle of the crew in action on ships deck, thus allowing better control over cannons & aiming and ship manoeuvring. The players experience the action firsthand as enemy fire flies overhead and the ship rocks in the turbulent seas.

When taking the control of the flagship players can take advantage of the skills of the fleet commander. All fleets have their own unique fleet commanders with a set of active and passive skills. The passive skills are in force throughout the battle where as the active skills can be activated by player and are in force for a short period of time.
For example, one commander will have an accuracy skill that will improve the accuracy of shots fired from the ship, where as another commander will have an feared skill resulting lowered morale for all enemy ships.

East India Company scheduled for release in Q3 2009 and will be published worldwide by Paradox Interactive and will also be available on leading digital distribution platforms.

@andyhwang2009 depends on the teacher and your political alignment. Our teacher mainly condemns it.

[docm37]

Jews created, owned and ran the East India company. That was one of the major source of their wealth that we see being used today to control much of the World. They hoarded money through exploitation, drug trafficking, usury, extortion and wholesale murder.

British people are  good but British Queen , politicians, East India company and British Merchants are drug cartels during 19th century. Shame on you British Queen , politicians , East India company and Merchants.They have no dignity. Does current UK government condemn these 19th century British government sponsor British drug cartels and dealers? Current UK students hate 19th century these British drug cartels?
