The Age of Empires is upon us.

Start Year: 1700, Current Year: 1700, End Year: 1900
Rules: 1 IRL week= 1 game year. You can play a colonial nation (i.e. America), but you rebel, meaning you must fight and win 3 out of 5 battles (one of them must be a siege) against the country who owns the land you want (i.e. The east coast of America for the U.S.) This goes for any rebel nation. A rebel nation is one whose land has already been claimed (i.e. If you want to play as Scotland and someone has already claimed Great Britain you will be a rebel, but if you claim Scotland first than you will be a normal nation.) Rebels in the Americas use the U.S. faction, or, (if rpd) the native american factions. Rebels in Africa use the Ottomans, and those in India use the Maratha confederacy. Unclaimed land can be taken by winning a siege battle against an Ottoman army on very hard. Battles are played on ETW or NTW.
