what should i get Empires or RoN

[Tsavong]

Empires: Dawn of the Modern World
Or Rise of nations
which do you think is batter, ive played thedemos of bouth, RoN seems good, thow the demo of Empires dident gave so much, just looked like Emprie Earth which i have so is it worth buying?

[Mongoose]

No, buy RON. Empires was mediocre, being some what like Empire earth but with out the epic feel.


The empires AI was awful. RON, on the other hand, had a fairly good AI.

I got Empires and regretted it ever since.
RoN, that I've played, and found it thrilling, like a epic Age of Empires, world encompassing. Very nice.

Ic, i must say i have enjoyed playing the RoN demo, (instead of righting my essay for uni ) though empires DoMW still appeals to me as it seems every civ is unique is this true? and dose it affect strategies when using different civs?
oh and ive seen pics of sea battles wich seem to have ships from what appers to be the last level, ie WW1 ships with WW2, and others dose this meen units dont upgrade like in AOE or RON etc?

any other games that you would recomend i look at 1st
i have EE 1 and AOE2 and know of AOE 3 (got the demo too :p )

"...as it seems every civ is unique is this true?"

Hell no. In the middle ages, there are only two different catagories. And the CIVs in the same catagory aren't really that different. And certain civs completely lack types of units(The english don't have pike men, for example).

Avoid it at all costs and get RON instead.
