2300 \n
2301 Building on the work of engineer-inventors Thomas Newcomen and John Smeaton, who designed small steam engines for pumping water out of mines, James Watt (1736-1819) developed the first efficient steam engines. \n\nWatt's engines were used in factories and mills but due to the supposed danger that the boilers would burst if pressure went too high, they were designed as low pressure engines. Richard Trevethick in Britain and Oliver Evans in the United States challenged this assumption to build the first high pressure engines. Trevethick designed a mobile steam road carriage in 1801.\n\nTrevethick's engine designs probably influenced George Stephenson's work in the coal fields. In 1812 Stephenson altered an engine that was used for pumping water from the mine to have it move coal. \n\nThis development led to railroads, and this technology allows Engineers to build railroads through farms, plains, deserts, and forests.\n
2302 The seed drill, a farm machine used for sowing crops more efficiently, began to appear during the eighteenth century. Although not the first such device, the seed drill invented by Jethro Tull (1674-1741) in 1701 and made public in 1731 was more practical and efficient than other such machines. \n\nSeed drilling equipment required an investment most farmers were unwilling or unable to make in the eighteenth century. In England drilling was adopted slowly with drills being shared from farm to farm and rarely being used on smaller holdings. The seed drill developed by James Cooke in 1782 and improved over the years led directly to modern seed drill machines.\n\nThe seed drill allows Farmers to improve Grain and Produce farms to Level I. Farms produce two units per turn when improved.\n
2303 In 1793, when Eli Whitney visited a plantation, cotton was cultivated and harvested primarily by slaves, especially in the United States. Plantation owners recognized that the labor-intensive and time-consuming process of removing seeds by hand kept too many slaves out of the fields, but textile mills would not accept cotton that was full of seeds.\n\nWhitney invented a simple device that revolutionized cotton growing. His cotton gin spun the cotton through a roller covered with teeth and the seeds fell away. The machine was later improved by Hogden Holmes. Large gins could be powered by steam engines or water wheels.\n\nThis advance allows Farmers to improve Cotton plantations to Level I. Plantations will produce two units of cotton per turn.
2304 Scientific studies of hull design coupled with a need for speedy transport of mail, passengers, and rare products from the Far East led to the clipper ship. Some clippers were constructed with four, rather than three, masts to increase sail area. Iron or even steel frames could be planked with wood to make the hull more sturdy. Clippers continued to be useful throughout the century, even in the days of steam. The Cutty Sark, built in 1875, was designed for strong winds and once clocked 17 1/2 knots. \n\nClipper ships may be constructed in the shipyard. In time of war, clippers are more likely to run a blockade or escape from hostile fleets than are other merchant ships.\n
2305 Square set timbering is a system for supporting the rock above an area in a mine that has been emptied of valuable ore. These square sets--hollow cubes of timber--could be assembled on the surface and then fitted into place in the mine. \n\nThis development increases safety in the mine and allows greater quantities of the valuable minerals to be removed.\n\nMiners may improve all mines to Level II. Coal and Iron mines produce four units per turn. Gold and Gem mines produce two units per turn.\n
2306 Early in the history of railroads the inadequacy of wooden bridging became apparent; heavier trains required bridges of greater stability. Fortunately, improved techniques of metallurgy permitted the use of iron for bridges. George Stephenson designed and built the first such bridge for the Stockton-Darlington Railroad in 1822. This railroad later became the first to carry passengers.\n\nWith this breakthrough, engineers may build railroads through swamps. Foresters, produced in the university, use this technology to provide easier access to more Timber in forests. Timber terrain improves to Level I, producing 2 units of timber per turn.\n
2307 The development of superior feeds for livestock and the increased efficiency of crop rotation methods were important throughout the eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries. The traditional crop rotation--winter grain, spring grain, fallow--provided insufficient fodder for livestock, and, in consequence, manure yields were low and livestock unhealthy. Gradually, farmers began to add fodder crops such as clover to the cycle, providing increased feed for their stock during winter. \n\nIn some countries the enclosure of former common land encouraged this trend by giving individuals control over the land and the herd. This development allows for the education of Ranchers in the university, who may then improve Wool farms and Livestock ranches to Level I, producing two units per turn.\n
2308 The spinning jenny, invented in 1764 by James Hargreaves, was first used for large scale industry by Richard Arkwright. The machine took over the work of many hand spinners thereby multiplying the yarn that could be spun by one laborer. Once an industrialist provided the initial investment to buy the spinning jennies, to establish the mill, and to hire enough workers, huge profits were made.\n\nMore than any other device, the spinning jenny came to represent the social costs of the Industrial Revolution. The workforce at Arkwright's mill, which was probably typical, was mainly children from 7 to 13 years old who worked a thirteen-hour day crouched low beneath the machines.\n\nWith this advance, farmers improve cotton plantations to Level II. Ranchers improve Wool farms to Level II. Both will produce three units per turn when improved.
2309 Prior to the invention and general acceptance of the screw propeller, ships equipped with steam engines were propelled with paddle wheels. This technology has costs, especially for military vessels, because the huge wheels take space which cannot be used for mounting cannon. \n\nThe lack of space for cannons on the raider is partly redressed by the power of new breech-loading rifled guns rather than the older smoothbore cannon. However, raiders' firepower and small size will not allow them to stand up to a ship of the line. \n\nPaddle wheels appeared on many types of merchant ships. The largest was the Great Eastern which first crossed the Atlantic in 1860. Later this ship laid an Atlantic telegraph cable. No larger ships were built until 1899.\n\nPaddle wheels permit the construction of a large merchant ship and a raider--a fast escort vessel.
2310 At the close of the eighteenth and beginning of the nineteenth centuries, plow designs rapidly improved as more iron, and later steel, were used. The first development came with the hardening of cast iron plowshares. Robert Ransome invented a process whereby one surface was cooled more quickly resulting in a plowshare that was self-sharpening through use. \n\nNext the moldboard of the plow and later the entire implement were made of replaceable iron parts. At the close of this period, in 1846, John Deere built a plow with a steel moldboard.\n\nThese developments permit Farmers to improve Grain and Produce farms to Level II. Farms will produce three units per turn.
2311 In 1856 Henry Bessemer invented a process whereby air could be blown into the bottom of a vat of molten iron to remove the carbon, producing steel much more cheaply than previously possible. These Bessemer converters rapidly supplanted earlier forms of steel-making throughout the industrializing nations. For example, between 1865 and 1879 the yearly steel production of Britain and Germany multiplied by four. \n\nCheap high grade steel significantly affected military technology and growth. Mass produced rifles and artillery using this steel, coupled with ever higher rates of conscription, increased the size and the destructive ability of the great powers' armies .\n\nThese improvements to heavy industry allow the recruiting of Sharpshooters and Scouts, and permit the upgrading of Light Infantry and Hussars to these more modern units.
2312 Richard Trevethick's work with high pressure steam opened the door to build a compound steam engine that allowed greater expanding of the steam without increasing the temperature in the cylinder. When Arthur Woolf built such an engine with two cylinders in 1811, a 50% savings in fuel consumption occurred. Trevethick also began building compound engines.\n\nWith this technology Engineers may build railroads through hills, and Foresters may reach more Timber, improving Timber terrain to Level II and producing three units per turn.\n
2313 Traditionally, cannons were made of bronze, but as artillery grew larger this became prohibitively expensive. Consequently, wrought and cast iron cannons became more common as the nineteenth century progressed. Often these guns were reinforced with bands of iron to prevent them from flying apart when fired, making it possible to use larger guns.\n\nDesire for greater range and accuracy led to rifling the barrels of the new guns. Firing such a gun could result in damage to the barrel until flexible copper bands molded to the rifling were used to prevent wear.\n\nThis new technology allows recruiting of Field Artillery and Siege Artillery regiments and upgrading older artillery to these more modern units.\n
2314 Niklaus von Dreyse invented his needle gun, the first successful breech-loading rifle, in 1829, but this weapon was not adopted by the Prussian Army until 1840. Other armies were even slower to upgrade, and Austria lost the battle of Sadowa to Prussia in 1866 at least in part due to the superiority of the needle gun. However, even without the breech-loading feature, small arms at mid-century were much more deadly than Napoleonic Era muskets. During the American Civil War both sides experienced the horrible cost of attacking entrenched infantry armed with long range rifles.\n\nDuring the 1860s, France equipped its army with a superior breech-loading rifle, the Chassepot, which led all the great powers to rapidly upgrade their infantry weapons. By the 1880s, all modern armies were equipped with bolt action magazine rifles. \n\nThis weapon allows the military to recruit Rifle Infantry, Guards, and Carbine Cavalry, and to upgrade older regiments to these modern units.
2315 Although the benefits of armor on ships were recognized early in the nineteenth century, conservative thinking, ship instability and technical difficulties in iron-working prevented the construction of sea-going ironclads until the late 1850s. When France built La Gloire, the British responded with the Warrior. This three-masted sailing ship was driven in battle by a screw (propeller) and was armed with both smoothbore cannons and more modern rifled naval guns. She had an iron frame and wood planking with iron plates attached to her sides for much of her length.\n\nDuring the American Civil War the benefits of ironclads were confirmed when C.S.S. Virginia (formerly U.S.S. Merrimac ) decimated a small fleet of wooden steam frigates and was prevented from sinking them all only by the arrival of another ironclad, the U.S.S. Monitor. \n\nIronclads may be constructed in the shipyard. Although less heavily gunned than a ship of the line, an ironclad may defeat one due to the ironclad's armor.
2316 Because of the large number of different actions carried out by a hand loom weaver, it was difficult to develop a powered loom for weaving cloth, and the first power looms were uneconomical. In addition, a way to stop the power if the thread broke had to be developed. Once perfected, this feature allowed one weaver to watch several operating looms at once.\n\nThe labor savings and profits to the mill owners resulting from power looms and other new industrial machinery threatened workers' livelihood and resulted in violent protests. In 1811, for example, the Luddites destroyed industrial machines in England.\n\nIn spite of resistance, the number of operating power looms in Britain grew from 2400 to 14,150 from 1813 to 1820. By 1822 one model, Robert's loom, was the most widely used in England. By mid-century efficient power looms had displaced hand loom weaving for both cotton and worsted cloth. \n\nFarmers improve Cotton plantations to Level III. Ranchers improve Wool farms to Level III. Both will produce four units per turn.
2317 The most labor-intensive work on an eighteenth century farm was the harvest. Since the start of the Industrial Revolution, many attempts to mechanize the process of cutting the grain had been made. In 1826 Patrick Bell invented a cutting machine (which consisted of scissors pushed by horses) that achieved some success.\n\nThe mechanical reaper invented by Cyrus McCormick in 1831 and patented in 1834, which used the knife and cutter bar, achieved general popularity, especially after the Great Exhibition of 1851.\nMechanical reapers speeded the harvest and greatly reduced the number of laborers needed to cut the grain. \n\nFarmers may improve Grain farms to Level III, producing four units of Grain per turn.\n
2318 During the late eighteenth century, the value of phosphates for growing crops was first discovered. This knowledge was of small use until, in 1841, John Lawes first treated the phosphates with sulfuric acid. This began the super phosphate industry and significantly improved the effectiveness of fertilizers.\n\nWith this technology Farmers may improve Produce farms to Level III, growing four units of Produce each turn. \n
2319 Oil was drilled for the first time at Titusville, Pennsylvania, in 1859. In 1865 the first oil pipeline, six miles long, was constructed. Eventually, oil came to supply much of the world's energy needs. \n\nThe discovery that oil drilling could be performed economically permits Drillers to be educated in the university. They will produce Oil at Level I: two units per turn. Additionally, Prospectors may search for Oil in Desert and Swamp terrain. It is now possible to construct a Refinery and Power Plant.\n
2320 The invention of barbed wire significantly increased the enclosure of open range land and allowed ranchers to better regulate their herds. Breeds were improved and disease reduced by isolating one herd from another.\n\nRanchers improve Livestock ranches to Level II, producing three units of Livestock per turn.
2321 New ironclad design, shortly after the American Civil War, primarily affected the (British) Royal Navy, resulting in heavier and more powerful guns as well as thicker armor. H.M.S. Inflexible, although the last battleship designed to carry sails, significantly changed naval warfare and remained the strongest ship afloat throughout the 1880s. She was armed with four 80 ton guns in two huge rotating turrets and was equipped with electric lighting. Later in the century ironclad battleships lost their sails but continued to develop the power and range of their guns as well as the thickness of their armor plate. \n\nBuild these warships in the shipyard to achieve command of the sea. Their larger guns provide a longer range than earlier warships and they are exceptionally difficult to sink.
2322 Alfred Krupp of the Krupp Works in Germany exhibited all-steel artillery at the Great Exhibition of 1851. Although the first steel guns were made of several separate pieces, improved techniques of metallurgy and larger production facilities soon resulted in heavy guns cast in one massive piece of steel.\n\nRecoil, a growing problem with ever larger cannons, was reduced with the invention of a recuperator between the barrel and the gun carriage. Using a recuperator, the carriage of the cannon barely moves when the gun is fired. Gun crews no longer need to move the gun back into position after firing. \n\nIn the siege of Port Arthur in 1904-05 the heavy howitzers of the Japanese Army proved decisive, both by destroying the walls of the fortress and by battering the ships in the harbor. \n\nThis technology permits the recruiting of Railroad Gun and Mobile Artillery regiments, and the upgrading of older artillery to these more modern units.
2323 In 1866 Alfred Nobel invented a new form of explosive called dynamite. Although dynamite has many military applications, especially in demolitions, it has many non-military uses as well.\n\nUsing dynamite to blast a path, Engineers may build rail through mountain terrain. Foresters can reach previously inaccessible Timber and improve Timber production to Level III, producing four units per turn. Finally, dynamite allows miners to improve all mines to Level III: Coal and Iron to six units per turn; Gold and Gems to three units per turn.\n
2324 In the latter part of the nineteenth century, the great powers evolved a new class of ship to protect merchant commerce from cruising commerce raiders. These ships, designated armored cruisers, were as fast or faster than the earlier raiders, with better guns and light armor plate. Since the primary goal of small (non-capital) ship designers was speed, not armor, the steam turbine engine, first made practical by Sir Charles Parsons, was used in smaller vessels like the armored cruiser and the destroyer first. After turbines proved more reliable and cleaner than traditional engines, they were fitted in capital ships as well.\n\nArmored Cruisers are relatively inexpensive and are highly efficient in protecting merchants and demolishing the trade of the enemy. One Armored Cruiser can sink a large number of raiders or early ironclads by remaining out of their range with its superior speed. These ships should not be placed in the line of battle. \n
2325 Early machine guns and automatic fire weapons included the Gatling gun, a ten-barrel gun constructed by Richard Gatling in 1862; the repeating rifle invented by Ferdinand Mannlicher in 1878; and the Maxim gun patented by Hiram Maxim in 1882. These weapons led to the machine guns that decimated armies during World War I.\n\nThis firepower immensely increased the casualty rates of armies. For example, at the beginning of World War I, a rifle fired 15 rounds per minute and a machine gun fired 600. Fire this heavy destroyed entire regiments in a few minutes when they ventured from their entrenchments to attack the enemies' lines.\n\nThis advance allows recruiting of Modern Infantry, Machine Gunners, and Rangers, and the upgrading of older regiments to these more modern units. \n
2326 Throughout the period of the Industrial Revolution, chemistry as a branch of learning grew from a purely empirical and incomplete science to a theoretically founded science which could respond rapidly to the demands of growing industries. New developments in many industries, including food preservation, glass making, soap production, and textiles led to greater experimentation. The general acceptance of the system of chemical elements after the work of Lavoisier provided a theoretical underpinning for the new empirical discoveries.\n\nThis revolution in chemistry is represented by growth in production of food and oil. Drillers improve Oil wells to Level II, producing four units per turn. Ranchers improve Livestock ranches to Level III, producing four units per turn.\n
2327 During 1905 Admiral Sir John A. Fisher designed the first all-big- gun warship, the H.M.S Dreadnought, which gave its name to the modern battleship. When launched in 1906, Dreadnought made all other battleships immediately obsolete. The armament of ten 12-inch, long-range guns meant that the Dreadnought could sink its foes from a greater range and with a heavier weight of metal, but only if accurately aimed. \n\nIn 1912 Sir Percy Scott introduced director firing to the Royal Navy. This system allowed a single officer, high above the smoke-shrouded decks, to fire all the guns on the ship electrically. Using salvo firing, a battleship could demolish any ship with shorter range guns.\n\nAlthough early dreadnoughts and battle cruisers burned coal, the advantages of oil for speed and efficiency soon mandated oil-burning designs and conversion of older coal burners. In the shipyards, all Dreadnoughts and Battle Cruisers require oil, not coal.
2328 Although the first successful internal combustion engine was invented in 1860 by Lenoir, practical applications were not developed until the close of the century. Diesel patented his engine in 1892, and in 1893 both Karl Benz and Henry Ford built their first motorcars.\n\nPractical oil and gasoline burning internal combustion engines permit the recruiting of Armored and Mechanized regiments and the upgrading of older units to these modern types. Additionally, Drillers may improve Oil wells to Level III, producing six units per turn.

3011 This turn you should:\n\n1. Use your Prospector to explore for valuable minerals. \n\n2. Use your Engineer to build some railroad track from the capital city. \n\n3. Look around the Terrain Map. Shift click on the map to get more information about it.\n\nMost types of terrain on the map supply one type of resource. For instance, the orchard terrain supplies fruit, and the farm terrain supplies grain. Your civilian units work to expand the pool of available resources. You currently command two civilians, a Prospector and an Engineer.\n\nTo use map resources to feed your workers and supply your industries, you must connect them to a transport network. If a terrain tile is within one tile of a connected rail depot, a port, or the capital city, the resources in that tile are available to the transport network.
3012 \nIn the toolbar you see a picture of the selected civilian along with information about him. On the map you see your two civilian units, a variety of terrain, towns, and defensive military encampments (small tents). \n\nThere are seven types of terrain that always supply a resource: fertile hills(wool), plantations(cotton), open range(livestock), farms(grain), orchards(fruit), ranches(horses), and hardwood forest(timber).\n\nThere are two types of terrain that might conceal mineral resources: barren hills(coal or iron), and mountains (coal, iron, gold, gems).\n\nSome of the other types of terrain on the map supply nothing of value like plains, or become valuable later in the game, like deserts.\n\n\n
3013 \nWhenever a civilian is selected you will see a white flashing outline around him, and his picture will be shown in the toolbar. \n\nAs you move your cursor across the map it will alter according to what will happen if you click in that location. You can safely experiment because any order you give can be canceled at no cost. \n\nOnce you give an order to a civilian a yellow question mark will appear when you place the cursor over the ordered unit. Click on the unit and a dialog box informs you what he is doing and lets you cancel or confirm his orders. \n\nYou can be sure a civilian is working when the unit animates.\n
3014 \nCursors tell you what will happen if you send your civilian to that terrain tile. For most units, a hammer cursor appears over spaces where that unit could move and do work. \n\nThe Prospector has a special cursor, an eye that appears over places he can search for minerals. The Engineer also has a special cursor, the railroad track cursor which appears over spaces to which he could build rail. When the hammer cursor appears over the Engineer, it indicates that he could construct a depot, port or fort in his current space.\n\nIf you see a green arrow, the civilian can move there, but he will accomplish no work this turn.\n\n
3015 \nYou may cycle through your units using the next unit button on the toolbar (a small arrow). \n\nIf you wish to select a unit without waiting for it in the cycle, move the cursor over a unit on the map. When the cursor becomes a small arrow with a flag, click to select the unit. \n\nThis allows you to select units that are not currently in the automatic cycle, or to command units in a different order than presented by the cycle.\n\n
3021 Orders given last turn have been carried out. A civilian who is done working appears in the unit cycle flashing white. The working animation has ended. \n\nThis turn you should:\n\n1. Continue to look for more minerals with the Prospector. \n\n2. Keep the Engineer building rail, hopefully toward useful resources.\n\n
3022 In the middle of the toolbar, the higher row of four buttons takes you to transport, industry, trade, and diplomacy. Each of these four buttons highlights every turn until you have visited that screen. \n\nThe lower row of four buttons provides orders for the selected unit on the map. The toolbar includes a mini-map of the world. \n\nIn the top row a microscope button takes you to the technology interface. \n\nHot text in the upper right reminds you of button functions when the cursor is over a button.\n
3023 Although units may be commanded by clicking on the map, the four unit orders buttons can be convenient as well. \n\nThe first button disbands a civilian and sends the worker back to industry. This is useful if you have nothing more for the civilian to do. For military units this button brings up the details of a group of regiments. \n\nOther unit buttons include: the later button (an arrow), which continues to the next unit in the cycle; the done button (an X), which ends the turn for the selected unit; and the sleep button, which removes the selected unit from the cycle next turn.\n
3024 Transport, industry, trade, and diplomacy screens do not need to be visited every turn. When something in the world situation has changed you will need to change your orders on one or more of these screens. Generally, the industry screen requires the most attention of the four. \n\nYou will receive warnings from your ministers if the situation on one of these screens desperately demands new orders. Eventually highly successful rulers need to learn when to visit these screens before the situation is urgent enough to generate a warning from the ministers. \n
3025 There are two shortcuts for moving units without scrolling across your nation or the world. \n\nThe mini-map in the upper right portion of the toolbar permits you to jump to any part of the world. This is useful for moving civilians, military, and naval units. \n\nAdditionally you can find a place for the civilians (with the exception of the Engineer) to work by clicking one of the miniature terrain tiles near the bottom of the toolbar. This will center the map on the next space where they can perform work.\n\n
3031 This screen represents the industrial might of your Empire. Here you order production, using the labor of workers to produce raw resources into materials such as steel or lumber, and to produce the materials into goods such as armaments or furniture. \n\nThis turn you should:\n\n1. Click on the warehouse in the upper center of the screen to see how much of each commodity is now available. The warehouse display is divided into different Production Economies.\n\n2. Click on the six factories and mills on the lower half of the screen. This is where you order industrial production. As you move the sliders on these pop-up screens, the commodities used by the factories and mills are deducted from the warehouse.
3032 By moving your cursor across the screen you can find the name of each building in the hot text at the upper right. \n\nThe trade school and the capitol manage and develop the industrial workers who provide labor for the city. On the left border of the screen you see the workers in your city now, with the total amount of labor available represented by the arm icon shown above them. \n\nThe food processing center provides a means of preserving some of your food in case of fresh food shortfalls. The workers eat food every turn. The amount of food demanded each turn appears on the right border. Don't worry about starvation yet. You have a stockpile of canned food that the workers will eat if insufficient raw foods are provided.\n\nFour buildings on the screen do not require your attention the first turn. The railyard is used to construct transportation to allow more resources to reach your industry. The armory, university, and shipyard allow you to build more units. \n
3033 Click on one of the factory buildings to bring up a factory production dialog. In this box you see a production equation explaining what this factory can do.\n\nTo order production at a factory click on the arrow to the right of the slider until the maximum amount of production (capacity) is reached, or until you run out of a necessary item. You can change your mind and reduce or eliminate production by clicking on the other arrow. \n\nAll materials have multiple uses, so it is not always the right decision to produce all the goods you can.\n
3034 A production equation referring to labor (represented by the icon of a bicep) appears on each production dialog, and on some of the other building screens as well. The workers displayed on the left border of the screen supply the labor for these centers. \n\nAn untrained worker (gray smock) supplies one point of labor per turn. Trained workers (light blue smock) supply more labor (two per turn); expert workers (dark blue smock) supply the most (four per turn).\n\nBy training a worker in the Trade School--the dark red building to the left of the screen-- you increase the amount of labor he provides each turn. He won't be able to work during the turn he is trained. Training costs paper and money.\n\nYou control migration to your industries through the capitol building in the middle of the screen. New untrained migrants come from the rural districts of your empire in response to your expenditure of food and consumer goods. Be careful not to increase your population faster than your food supplies warrant.\n
3035 Each of the four large sections on the warehouse display summarizes one of the economies in the game. \n\nThe top section, for example, shows on the left side the amount of stored cotton and wool. These are the raw resources in the textile economy. Next you see the amount of fabric; the material in the textile economy. Finally, you see the amount of clothing; the end product--or finished good--in the textile economy. \n\nWith the exception of food, there are two industrial buildings associated with each economy. The mills produce materials out of resources; and the factories produce goods out of materials.\n
3041 \n\nGreetings, your Excellency. As the ruler of a burgeoning Empire you enjoy a vast amount of power over political, military, and economic affairs. Minister Briefings are available to help you learn the interfaces through which you issue your commands.\n\nAlthough it can be played on an infinite variety of random maps, Imperialism is modeled on the world at the beginning of the Industrial Revolution. The world is divided into Great Powers--you and your rivals-- and Minor Nations ripe for exploitation. \n\nWhile this demo does not contain many of the game elements and features, it has been designed for your successful play of the early part of the game. Your industries are well supplied, and your country possesses plentiful and easily accessible resources. You enjoy military superiority over your neighbors and good diplomatic relations with several smaller nations. \n\nThis demo allows you to play 10 years. The full version of the game can run over 100 years if no Great Power prevails before that time. \n
3042 \nThere are four ways to get help.\n\nIntroductory Briefings (like this) are available on most screens when you click on the question mark button in the upper right of the screen. This should be your first step if you feel confused or uncertain about your next action. You can review the goals listed in this briefing during play by clicking on the question mark button and then clicking 'Goals Reminder'.\n\nYou have three ministers who appear with advice and information when appropriate.\n\nLook for informative messages in the top information bar ("hot text") about objects under the cursor. \n\nShift-Click to learn more about the map.\n
3043 \nEasy Goals:\n\n1. Build a new unit, such as a miner.\n\n2. Find coal and iron.\n\n3. Expand your lumber mill and steel mill.\n\n4. Put all your factories to work.\n\n5. Invest in a new technology.\n\n6. Recruit workers and increase their productivity.\n\n7. Declare war on another country.\n
3044 \nMedium Goals:\n\n1. Build coal and iron mines.\n\n2. Transport proper foods to industrial workers.\n\n3. Lay railroad track and build depots.\n\n4. Use a new technology.\n\n5. Conquer a province using tactical combat.\n\n6. Transport coal and iron.\n\n7. Conduct diplomacy--gain influence over less developed nations.
3045 \nTwelve Advanced Tips for successful play:\n\n1. Your capital city represents the industrial production of your Great Power.\n\n2. Resources in your country are not useful until transported to the capital.\n\n3. Provincial towns eventually produce industrial materials and goods once a depot or port is built within one tile of the town.\n\n4. Check the technology purchase screen every few turns to see what you could buy.\n\n5. Although you can disband your civilian units, you may have to rebuild them to benefit from a new technology.\n\n6. Using the diplomacy screen, you learn what resources other countries produce and how powerful they are. Trade with, or conquer, nations with valuable assets.\n\n7. Scout enemies' forces by clicking on their camps. You can only scout provinces adjacent to your own.\n\n8. You obtain generals and admirals as rewards for expansion of your navy and army. These leaders improve scouting and combat abilities of your forces.\n\n9. Diplomacy is essential for obtaining markets and products from abroad. Diplomacy and trade go hand in hand. Trade improves relations, and good relations improve trade.\n\n10. A developer unit joins your forces when you improve your diplomatic relations. This unit can purchase land in other nations for exploitation.\n\n11. Defend your coastline. An enemy fleet off a coastal province allows landings by enemy forces based elsewhere. A friendly navy automatically intercepts such attempts and can destroy the troops at sea.\n\n12. As the game progresses, your focus shifts. Initially you are concerned with infrastructure. In the middle game you begin to focus on global relations. Toward the end you concentrate more on domination and global strategies.\n\n
3051 On the trade screen you tell your merchants which commodities to try to buy and sell when the world market convenes after the end of the turn. \n\nThere are no guarantees on the world market. Your empire might need coal, for example, and have plenty of money, but if no other country is offering coal you will not be able to buy any. Likewise if no other country is bidding on the commodities you offer, you will not be able to sell them.\n\nUse your powerful industries to take advantage of the minor nations: buy their cheap raw resources and sell them back expensive finished goods. \n\nThis turn you should consider changing the bids already entered if there is something in particular you wish to buy. You should decide what to attempt to buy based on what resources you lack. \n
3052 Each commodity traded on the market is pictured to the left of the screen. At the top of the column are goods, followed by materials, with resources at the bottom. \n\nHot text will remind you of each commodity's name. Information on the screen includes the current world price and the amount you have available in your stockpile. \n\nNear the top of the right wooden border is a number under a ship icon. This represents your merchant marine. With rare exceptions, you are unable to buy and sell more total items in one turn than this number.\n\nYou may also occasionally see other icons appear in the border areas. When this occurs it means your industry or your workers have a particular demand for that item. \n
3053 It may not be a good idea to sell items until your industries are a bit more developed, but you should immediately begin to buy commodities, especially resources. \n\nTo bid (attempt to buy) a commodity click on the left-side brass slider in the same row as the desired commodity. You will find these sliders in the Orders column of the screen. When the slider appears it will have the word "bid" written on it.\n\nYou are limited to four buy bids in any turn. Additionally, if you decide to offer something for sale, you will not be able to bid on the same item in the same turn. \n\nYou can change your bids at any time until you end your turn. If you leave this screen and return later your bids will be saved.\n
3054 After the end of the turn, traders from every nation convene at the world trade market. Before trading begins, all the possible deals are compared and placed in order. \n\nEach offering country ranks the bidders in an order which is determined by the price the bidder would pay, and the strength of the diplomatic relations between potential buyer and seller. You can offer to pay extra (above the world price) using the diplomacy screen. \n\nThen the real trading begins, as the trade round for each commodity is conducted. Trade deals are presented one at a time in order to each potential buyer. Items from an offering nation are offered to their first place bidder, followed (if any remain unsold) by an offer to their second place bidder, and so on.\n\nTraders present offer sheets to you and you will accept or reject the offered commodities. You will receive an additional Briefing at that time.\n
3055 At the beginning of the game, prices of all commodities are at set values. Generally resources are valued at $100, materials at $300, and goods at $900. \n\nPrices are recalculated every turn prior to deals being offered. If demand outstrips supply, the price rises. If there is a glut, the price falls.\n\nThe new world price is used this turn and appears on the trade screen next turn as a basis for next turn's calculations. \n
3061 As your industries and infrastructure grow you will begin to need more money for expansion. Generally, great powers such as your empire make money by selling goods (armaments, hardware, furniture, and clothing) to the less developed world. \n\nIt is a good idea to establish a plan dividing the goods you produce between those for selling, and those for expanding your own population or military.\n
3062 The goods available are listed in the top rows of the trade screen. When you offer an item for sale a slider appears allowing control over quantity offered.\n
3063 Offers to sell are controlled by a brass slider to the right of the orders column. Once the slider is out, you control the quantity offered using the slider. \n\nWhile you are limited to four bids, you may offer as many different commodities as you like. The quantity you may offer is limited both by the amount you have in stock in the warehouse and by the merchant marine number. \n
3064 Your merchant marine carries cargo only for foreign trade. Merchant marine does not affect transport capacity within your empire. \n\nConstruct merchant ships in the shipyard to increase the amount of merchant marine. Each completed merchant ship adds more cargo space to your total merchant marine number.\n\nYour merchant marine can be intercepted by hostile great powers and in the event of war it is wise to protect it. Any undamaged naval vessels stationed in port will act as escorts for merchant marine during that turn's trade deliveries. \n\nIf your merchants are intercepted and taken or destroyed, the deals you made that relied on those merchants for pick-up or delivery will be canceled. \n
3071 Using the diplomacy screen you may learn about and interact with the other nations in the world. The tabs at the sides of the lower part of the screen determine what actions you will take. \n\nWhenever you open this screen you will begin on the information tab, a large blue 'I'. With this tab selected, you cannot take diplomatic actions. Instead you will be learning about other countries and the world diplomatic situation.\n\nThe tabs on the right hand side lead to action interfaces. Here you may set trade policies, provide grants to the leaders of other lands, and make diplomatic overtures such as non-aggression pacts. \n\nThis turn you should:\n\n1. Use the information tab to explore the world. Find the Minor Nation of Wodan. Your country already has an embassy with this nation. You have some trade consulates with other Minor Nations.\n\n2. Use the diplomatic overtures tab to establish trade consulates or embassies in a few other nations.\n
3072 With the information tab selected you see four small symbols in the center of the lower part of the screen. Each of these symbols leads to different information: diplomatic status (such as treaty, war, or peace); relationship, (a measure of hostility or friendliness); and trade policies. \n\nThis information will change according to which country is selected on the map. Your nation is selected by default. Click the map to change the selected country. \n\nClicking on the tab directly beneath the information tab lets you know which powers are winning the game. Approximately every ten years, a world council of governors meets, nominates two great powers, and then votes to determine if one power enjoys the support of a majority of governors. \n\nAt the beginning of the game the council has not yet met.\n
3073 The three tabs to the right of the screen are all used for giving orders. However, at the beginning of the game the top tab--diplomatic overtures-- is most useful to you. On this screen appear seven color coded scrolls.\n\nOn the first turn the only possible overtures are war and trade consulates to minor nations. To make a diplomatic overture, first select one of these scrolls, then click on the nation you select for the overture. A small symbol appears on the map within the borders of that nation. \n\nBecause you already have embassies with great powers, you cannot establish trade consulates with them. Embassies include trade consulates within them. You can always declare war on anyone you wish.\n\nIf you want to cancel an overture click on the icon that appears in that nation. It will disappear. Nothing is final until you end your turn. Overtures you make this turn take effect next turn. Some overtures may be refused by other nations, but trade consulates and declarations of war cannot be refused.\n
3074 Trade Consulates cost $500, but aside from this they are purely beneficial. \n\nThe most immediate benefit is the right to set trade policies such as subsidies to encourage trade. Trade policies are set using the tab with the ship icon on the right side of the screen.\n\nOnce a new trade consulate is established in a nation, each completed trade deal between your Empire and this nation causes an improvement of your diplomatic relationship. If relations improve enough, some of the Council votes of the other nation might go to you. Eventually, their leaders could decide to join your Empire peacefully. \n\nFinally, a trade consulate allows the later construction of an embassy. Embassies, although quite costly, offer even greater control over diplomacy.\n
3075 A declaration of war must be made before any hostile action is taken. You cannot invade other's provinces, blockade their ports, or sink their fleets until you declare war. Lands you conquer always vote with you if you are nominated by the Council for victory.\n\nOn the other hand, wars harm your diplomatic relations with other nations who are friendly to the country you attack. The penalties will be greater when you attack countries who have reason to believe you are friendly, such as a signed non-aggression pact.\n
3081 As the Industrial Revolution barrels ahead, new discoveries become available to all Great Powers. Technological advances provide you a chance to improve the capabilities of your industry, agriculture, or military.\n\nFew nations can afford to retool their industries to take advantage of every technology as soon as it is invented. The strategy lies in selecting which technologies to invest in, deciding which are most beneficial for your situation. \n
3082 The Technology Investment screen displays small pictures of both the technologies you have invested in, and those still available for investment. As new technologies become available, they will appear at the top of the list. By the end of the game, there will be several pages to view.\n\nClick the picture of a technology to view detailed information on the inventor and history of the discovery.\n\nThe other columns provide information about the technology, including the benefits of investing in it.\n
3083 Click on the purchase button to invest in a new technology. You may cancel your purchase at any time prior to the end of your turn. \n\nYou will receive an announcement about the new technology at the start of your next turn.\n\nNo purchase buttons are shown at the start of the game because no new technologies have become available yet.\n
3084 Avoid purchasing new technology until you can use it. \n\nFor example, there is little benefit gained in purchasing the spinning jenny, which permits farmers and ranchers to increase cotton and wool production, unless you have already built a farmer and/or a rancher and improved your production up to the maximum amount without the spinning jenny.\n
3111 Once you establish trade consulates your diplomatic controls expand. This turn you are able to establish embassies, and set trade policies with the trade consulate nations.\n\nThis turn you should:\n\n1. Establish at least one embassy using the diplomatic overtures tab.\n\n2. Grant small trade subsidies in the nations where you established trade consulates. This will encourage those nations to trade with you first.
3112 On the information screen (select the tab with the blue I) you see small white square with a green $ in nations with new trade consulates. \n\nTo learn about the commodities these nations produce select the small ship at the bottom center of the screen, and then click on one of the nations showing your trade consulate icon. You see a list of major exports.\n\nAs you become more friendly with this nation you will gradually be able to rely on deliveries of some or all of these commodities. You can increase the likelihood of trades by granting these nations trade subsidies.\n
3113 Select the large tab on the right side with the ship icon. This takes you to your trade policies screen. Here, you grant trade subsidies to favored trading nations. \n\nSelect the amount of the subsidy you wish to provide by clicking on the green circle. Then click on the nation you wish to subsidize. You see a small green circle confirming the subsidy. To cancel the subsidy, click on this icon. \n\nA subsidy provides a percent change to the world price on all commodities traded with that nation. If you are selling, the percent change will reduce the price. If you are buying, the price you pay will increase. \n\nNations are much more likely to trade with you when they receive these subsidies.\n
3114 The granting of a trade consulate to a minor nation gives you the right to build an embassy there. Although you may not be able to afford it yet, embassies are extremely valuable.\n\nUse the overtures (scroll) tab on the right side to establish an embassy. Click on the embassy scroll and then the nation selected for the embassy. A small diplomat's hat will appear confirming the order.\n\nIt costs $5000 to build each embassy. Embassies permit full-fledged diplomatic relations including granting foreign aid, pacts and other treaties, and the possibility of armed intervention if the minor nation is invaded.\n\nOnly those minor nations with embassies will ever consider joining your Empire voluntarily.\n
3115 Generally, select a few minor nations for diplomatic action. They should produce resources you are interested in, and offer useful geographical advantages for your long range plans. \n\nRapidly establish trade consulates and embassies in these nations, and try to maintain friendly relations with other nations that these selected nations like. If you start a war, do so far away from your trading partners.\n\nYour goal is favorite great power status. Once you are the favorite great power of a minor nation, you have a good chance of eventual peaceful control of their country.\n
3121 You have ended your turn and the world market is now open. You now receive offers from nations selling the types of commodities that you tried to buy on the trade screen. \n\nAfter each offer is acted upon by you (the potential buyer) any commodities remaining unpurchased are passed on to other nations that bid on those commodities.\n\nOf course you might not be the first buyer in line. The offers you see may already have been passed up by other nations acting ahead of you.\n
3122 The offer sheet appears on the left side of the desk. It provides simple information on the current offer. \n\nTo obtain more information about the market, click on the small tabs on the trade book. As the tab is selected the trade book opens to a two page display which supplies details on the world market in that commodity. \n\nThe left page lists the nations offering to sell the commodity and the quantity each one is offering. The row of small flags beneath the offering nation's name shows the order in which the nation will offer the commodity to the various bidders.\n\nOn the right page is a list of bidding nations with the amount of merchant marine each currently has available. A Great Power with no remaining merchant marine cannot accept any deals regardless of their position in line.\n
3123 The trade book is an informational tool. The only orders you can give are on the offer sheet itself. \n\nAs each offer is presented, you can accept any number up to the amount offered, as long as you have merchant marine available to pick up the items. Change the number in the box and then click the accept seal shown on the offer sheet. To reject a deal, click the reject seal. \n\nIf you decide that you have purchased enough cotton, for example, check the box "done buying this commodity". You will be presented with no more cotton offers this turn.\n
3124 A basic strategy of trade is wise use of your merchant marine. As each offer is accepted, the amount of merchant marine remaining this turn goes down, as displayed by the number beneath the ship icon.\n\nCommodities are always traded in the order shown on the trade screen and in the tabs on the side of the trade book. \n\nThis means that if you desperately need iron, for example, you may need to stop accepting all the wool you can get, to reserve some of your limited merchant marine for the iron coming later.\n\nYou should use the trade book (iron tab) to look at the market in iron. If one of the nations selling iron shows your flag as its top bidder, you will definitely receive an iron offer this turn. You should save some merchant marine for it.\n
3131 Use the Transport Ledger to determine which resources will be transported from the countryside to the industry of your nation. \n\nAt the start of the game, the only resources you can transport are all from the area surrounding your capital. After your Engineer builds railroads, depots and ports you will be able to transport resources from deeper into the countryside.\n\nThe amount and types of resources available will increase due to the work of civilians such as Farmers and Miners.\n\nThis turn you should make sure you are transporting everything you have available. If not, increase the amounts of commodities being transported.
3132 The Transport Ledger displays sliders showing the amount to be transported this turn of every commodity currently available.\n\nUnder some of the sliders you may see a red or green line. A green line means that industry has a demand for that item and the demand is being satisfied by the amount shown on the slider. A red line indicates an unsatisfied demand from industry.\n\nOn the lower right of the page is a colored bar showing the total transport capacity (freight cars and barges) you are using and the total you have available. This number is a limit. The total amount shown on all the sliders can never be more than the amount of transport capacity you have.\n\nHot text in the upper right of the screen helps you identify these displays.\n
3133 Giving orders on the transport ledger involves making the best use of your limited transport capacity.\n\nUsually at the beginning of the game, you will have enough transport capacity to move all your resources. This will not be true for long. You will need to produce more transport capacity using the railyard on the industry screen.\n\nWhen the available commodities outnumber the total transport capacity, you will need to choose how to allocate transport capacity.\n\nUse the arrows at the ends of the sliders to lower the amount of one item, or to raise the amount of another item that is desperately needed by industry.\n
3134 You may find yourself short of one type of food (such as fruit) and with extra of another type (such as grain). This is common at the beginning of the game.\n\nConsider transporting extra food. Industrial workers who demand a food you are short on can still survive on the unwanted extra food, even though they will refuse to work on that turn. The alternative is starvation and the permanent loss of the worker.\n\nIf you don't need the extra food for the workers, it can be made into canned food on the industry screen. Canned food is useful as a food reserve and for encouraging migration from the countryside to serve your industry.\n
3135 Consider the needs of industry, and the resources already available (shown on the transport ledger) when planning the next task of your Engineer civilian. \n\nWhenever possible, site new ports and rail depots so that their one tile radius includes several commodities that you will find useful. Avoid constructing new depot whose radius overlaps the radius of old ones.\n\nAlthough ports are more expensive than depots, it is often a good idea to build one on a coast distant from your capital. This port can provide a quick entrance to an entire new region, saving a great deal of time that would be spent building railroads across the whole country.\n
3141 This turn you may be able to order production at more of your industries. You may also decide to expand one or more of these factories and mills to a higher capacity. Higher capacity permits a greater quantity of production each turn.\n\nClick on the factories and mills to open the production dialogs.\nThese may be left open when you leave the screen, and can be relocated anywhere on the screen. \n\nIf you use items in one production dialog and later decide you want those items elsewhere you merely change your commands. The order in which you open the production dialog boxes is irrelevant.\n\n
3142 Each production dialog box displays the production equation for that factory or mill. Red Xs near an item in the equation indicate shortages which prevent further use of an industry this turn. \n\nLast turn, you were able to produce at your factories. This turn, depending on what resources you have gained, you may be able to produce at the mills as well.\n\nEach industry has a listed capacity referring to the maximum amount of the end product that can be made in one turn. For example, even if you have plenty of iron, coal, and unused labor, you will not be able to produce more than 2 units of steel per turn in a capacity 2 steel mill. \n\nAnimations of the factories and mills on the screen let you know that they are in operation without requiring you to click on the center and view the dialog.\n\n
3143 When you decide to expand the capacity of this industry click on the gold button in the upper left part of the production box. You will see an expansion dialog. You are informed of the cost of the expansion and asked to confirm or cancel. \n\nAll industry expansions require lumber and steel. If you do not have sufficient materials for expansion you will be forced to cancel. When you have ordered expansion a build icon will appear in the production box and scaffolds will be placed around the building. Next turn the expansion will be completed. \n\nIf you decide to use the lumber and steel for something else, expansion orders can be canceled by re-entering the expand screen on the same turn you ordered expansion.\n\n
3144 The Railyard is a special industrial center for building transport capacity out of lumber and steel located near the top right of the screen.\n\nAs your mills, factories, and population expand you will see the need for more resources each turn. Transport capacity is the amount of resources you can bring to industry in one turn. From the transport screen you control how your transport capacity is used, but to increase the overall amount you must use the railyard. \n\nThe railyard is limited only by the amount of labor lumber, and steel you want to dedicate to increasing transport. Otherwise, it functions just like other industries.\n\n
3145 The six industrial centers continue to draw resources and materials from the warehouse and produce new commodities each turn at the level you set, as long as the resources and labor are available.\n\nThis means you need to visit these centers only when you have expanded the industry and want to increase production, or you need the materials, resources, or labor elsewhere and want to decrease production.\n\nEven if resources fall below requirements the industry remembers the amount you ordered, and in subsequent turns will attempt to fulfill the original demands. However, when the production box is opened, even if the orders are not changed, the production demand automatically re-sets to the level shown in the slider.\n\nOrders in for the railyard, food processing, capital, trades school, and all three unit construction sites are not saved to the next turn.\n\n
3151 Three buildings on the Industry screen are used to build units: the Shipyard, for building navies; the University, for building civilians; and the Armory, for building land forces. \n\nUsing the cursor and the hot text to the upper right, you can locate each of these centers.\n\n
3152 Each unit production center displays the cost of the unit to be constructed and the amount of those items currently available. You also see some information about the functions or quality of the units you could order constructed. \n\nWarships tend to cost more in commodities such as lumber or armaments, but both civilians and military regiments actually deduct workers from the labor force. Civilians, in fact, are most expensive because they always require an expert worker.\n\n
3153 Ordering a new unit is simple--just click on the right arrow under the picture of the unit to be constructed. If you have the required money and commodities you will see a number 1 appear under the unit's picture. If you don't have the commodities in stock, the items you lack will be shown in red text. \n\nAs with other orders, you are free to change your mind. Click the other (left) arrow under the unit to cancel the order and restore the items to the stockpile. The new units will be built when you end the turn and they will appear on the map next turn.\n\n
3154 Be cautious about building too many units at the beginning of the game unless you have a specific plan or need that requires the construction. Each worker deducted from the city must be replaced through migration and training or your labor supply will decline. Even ships have a hidden cost. Each unit of lumber put in a warship means less lumber for industrial expansion. \n\nYou must balance the need for new units against the need for economic expansion. \n\n
3155 Your defense minister monitors the growth of other empire's military and naval muscle. He will provide warnings of threatening moves. \n\nWhen you see these warnings you must be ready to expand your forces rapidly. This means stockpiling arms and cash so that laborers can be conscripted into the army immediately. \n\nRemember that you can recover from any disaster except the loss of your capital city. Defense forces should be concentrated there if you suspect you are weaker than other empires or if there are large enemy fleets off your coast.\n\n
3161 This screen appears whenever another country makes a diplomatic overture that requires a response from you. You may receive offers of peace when you are at war, offers of alliances and pacts from other great powers, and offers from minor nations to intervene in a war on their behalf.\n\n
3162 Information presented on the offer sheet informs you of the type of offer your Foreign Minister received.\n\n
3163 As with the trade offers, the only orders you can give with the diplomacy offers are to accept the offer or to reject it. Clicking on one of the two seals advances you to the next offer or the next screen.\n
3164 Only great powers offer you alliances and pacts. Alliances are only made between great powers. Pacts, while they can be agreed to by minor nations, will never be offered by them.\n\nWhen you agree to a non-aggression pact you are making a promise not to declare war on that power. This means that as long as you keep your word, you will be unable to attack that power in any way-including a case in which they attack some third nation you wish to support.\nOf course, you can break the pact and declare war but the diplomatic cost of war (mainly penalties involving world opinion) are much more severe when you break a pact.\n\nAgreeing to an Alliance is more serious. You are making a promise to declare war on any great power that declares war on your ally. The ally is making the same promise to you. Should you refuse declare war and uphold the alliance, severe diplomatic penalties apply. However, if the ally is the aggressor, not the defender, you may decide not to support the ally and suffer no penalty.\n\n
3165 When a minor nation has been attacked by another great power its leaders often seek a friendly great power to declare war on their enemy and protect their nation. This action by a great power is called intervention.\n\nYou receive offers to intervene only if you are the great power with the best relationship to the attacked minor nation and only from a minor nation in which you have an embassy.\n\nIf you accept the offer to intervene, you pay all normal penalties for declaring war on a great power. However, the benefits of intervention are significant. You immediately acquire the minor nation as a colony. You have control over all their armed forces and can deploy more regiments to defend their provinces. \n\n
3171 Whether you resolve battles on the tactical battlefield, or with strategic combat resolution, all battle results are reported here.\n\nYou can review these results again during your next turn by clicking on the question mark button in the upper right corner, and then clicking on the battle report button. \n\n
3172 The Battle Report screen provides results on all the battles you fought this turn. The area under the map displays the location of the battle, the forces of the winner and the loser, and lets you know which units, if any, were killed.\n\nGreen map icons represent a victory, while red means defeat. The flashing icon is the location of the currently displayed battle.\n\n
3173 You cycle through your battles, if you have more than one, by clicking on the arrow buttons at the bottom of the screen, or by clicking directly on the icons on the map. \n\nYou see more information on a battle by clicking on the large wooden 'i" button in the center of the page. This brings up detail on the two forces which fought the battle.\n\n
3181 Fighting on a tactical battlefield gives you the best chance for a crushing victory over your enemies. This option may be turned off using the preferences screen at any time during you turn. Once you enter the tactical battlefield, you are committed to fighting there, but you may choose to let your Defense Minister handle the battle for you.\n\nOnce both sides have deployed their forces the battle is fought in a sequence of unit turns based on the initiative rating of the individual units. This means that several of your units might act before any of the enemy regiments; or, that the enemy forces might all act before you can. Generally, cavalry acts before infantry, and infantry acts before artillery. However, these rules are modified by the experience rating of the regiments and the qualities of the leaders on each side.\n\n
3182 The toolbar displays the active regiment and the regiment's selected target. Near these unit pictures you see any medals won by either of the units. These medals measure the regiment's experience.\n\nOn the battlefield you see an area of small pips showing the radius of potential movement of the active unit. If a pip is green, it means that no enemy can fire into that space presently and that the active unit can move their without any fear of immediate damage. A red pip means that enemy units can fire into that space.\n\nEach regiment's display on the battlefield includes a green damage bar. The size of this bar tells you roughly how many of the regiment's troops are able to fire. As the regiment is fired upon the size of the bar decreases as more men are taken out of action. If the bar ever disappears it means the unit is totally destroyed. \n\nIt is likely that the morale of the regiment will break before total destruction occurs. When the green bar turns yellow, the regiment can only run or surrender.\n\n
3183 Because the order of movement and firing on the battlefield is based on initiative, there is no way for you to select your units out of turn. Units must act or not act when they get the chance. Often it is useful to avoid firing on your turn, preserving that regiment's fire for opportunity fire during an opponent's move. \n\nWhen one of your regiments is selected you fire by placing the cursor over an enemy in range and clicking. You see the cursor change to a crosshairs if the target is in range, and to a red X over a crosshairs if out of range.\n\nYou move an active regiment by clicking on a green or red pip on the battlefield. Because the enemy can fire during your move there is no way to take a move back. However, you can move in multiple steps clicking each time a little bit nearer to the enemy. There is no reason that an active unit has to move its entire distance all at once.\n\nAn active cavalry regiment stays active until you click done on the toolbar or until it has fired its weapons and used its entire movement. Infantry cannot move after firing, but can move and then fire. Artillery cannot both move and fire. \n\n
3184 For the most part you command your regiments on the battlefield using the cursors and clicks on the map. The three wooden toolbar buttons provide options not covered by the cursors.\n\nThe top button is a targeting shortcut. When one of your regiments is active, click repeatedly on this button to cycle through all enemy units in range. This reduces the amount of scrolling you need to do.\n\nThe middle button ends the turn of an active unit. If you choose to reserve your fire or to move only part of your movement points, you need to click here to advance the game to the next active unit.\n\nThe lower button orders all of your forces to retreat. You should click here only if the battle is lost and retreating might save the lives of some valuable regiments.\n\nAt the very bottom of the toolbar is a picture of your defense minister. Clicking here turns control of the battle over to him.\n\n
3185 The best way to conduct an attack is concentration of force against a small number of defenders. Use light cavalry and light infantry to draw fire from stationary defenders, and then move in your heavy forces and destroy the line of enemies one by one. Use your artillery to weaken the better enemy defenders before your best pieces close with them.\n\nOn defense, even though you benefit from entrenchments, you must fight actively. Try to hit attacking artillery with light cavalry and reserve your artillery to hit the enemy grenadiers and heavy cavalry when they get close enough. Be willing to retreat and save your men for a counter-attack unless you are defending your capital. \n\n
3191 The Council of Governors meets approximately every ten years to vote on potential winners of the game. The first step in this process is the nomination of two great powers. The Council Makes this determination largely on the basis of industrial might.\n\nOnce two great powers are nominated the governor of each province votes for one of the two nominees or else abstains. At the beginning of the game most governors will abstain unless their own country is one of the nominees.\n\nAs the game continues fewer governors will abstain. When one great power receives the votes of over half of the total provinces that power wins the game.\n\n\n
3192 The first screen depicts the council meeting hall. Here you witness the nomination of the two leading great powers. \n\nOn the second screen of the meeting you witness the voting of the council. Votes are entered on the ledger at the bottom and shown by small flags on the map. The votes come in order of the strength of that governor's support. For instance, if your great power is nominated you will notice your own home provinces voting for you first. As the process continues more reluctant governors elsewhere in the world may join your tally.\n\n
3193 Since you do not directly control the votes of governors in your provinces, it is not possible to give orders on the Council of Governors Screen. \n\nYou are guaranteed the support of all owned provinces if your great power is nominated. However, if two other great powers are the nominees, governors of your provinces decide to vote or abstain based on the performance of the rulers of the nominated great powers.\n\nTo ensure that your nation is nominated, you need to develop a lead in industrial strength. To obtain maximum support once you are nominated you need military success, diplomatic success, or a mixture of both.\n\n\n
3194 The tally of votes provides information on different categories of votes earned by the two nominated powers. This provides information on the strengths and weaknesses of your foes according to world opinion.\n\nThe first category shows the total provinces in the homeland of the great power plus those provinces conquered militarily since the game began. Since all provinces in this section automatically vote when their nation is nominated this category provides exact information on the size of the two top powers and on their past military successes.\n\nThe second category-colonies-represents the total number of provinces colonized by the nominated great power. Since all provinces in this section automatically vote when their nation is nominated this category provides exact information on the size of the colonial empires of the top great powers and on their past diplomatic successes. \n\n
3195 The tally of votes provides information on different categories of votes earned by the two nominated powers. This provides information on the strengths and weaknesses of your foes according to world opinion.\n\nThe third category on the vote tally-votes from other great powers-is a measure of the military potential of the top great powers. the governors of provinces controlled by great powers will add their votes to the tally out of fear.\n\nThe fourth category-votes from minor nations-is a measure of the diplomatic strength of the top two great powers. Governors in provinces controlled by minor nations consider the diplomatic strength of the great powers when deciding to vote or abstain.\n\n
3201 The status screens provide comparisons between all the Great Powers in a variety of fields. The ratings on each screen go from top to bottom and the length of the colored bar shows how competetive the various Powers are in each category. \n\nWhen this screen first appears the two highest rated powers shown would be the nominees for victory by the council of governors if a meeting were held this turn.\n
3202 Clicking on the tabs on the left side of the screen displays information on who is winning, first as a total, and then rated according to internal development, diplomatic success, and military power. The lowest tab on the left side compares the Powers' merchant marine.\n\nOn the right side, clicking on the tabs displays screens comparing world exports, industrial output, labor force, overseas profits, and transport capacity.
3211 At the end of every trade offers phase, before the new turn begins, the Deal Book is displayed. If you want to look at the Deal Book again during your turn, it may be brought up through the Help and Information dialog .\n\n\n
3212 The Deal Book lists all your country's trades, as well as potential deals that did not happen because you rejected them or ran out of merchant marine. It also provides an end of turn summary, called the bottom line, that reports your profits or losses for the turn.\n\n
3213 Eventually your overseas profits add to the positive side on the bottom line balance sheet. Overseas profits are money you make when another country sells something, or mines some gold or gems. \n\nThe only way to earn this beneficial bonus is by purchasing land in a Minor Nation with a Developer and then increasing production of the land with your other civilian units. \n\nThe profits produced by the lands you develop are split between your Great Power, and the nation where the land is located.
3214 Sometimes you may spend too much money and end a trade offers phase in the red. The Deal Book informs you of this fact and lists your borrowing limit. If you go over this limit you will receive a warning about a forced sale of your warehouse stockpile. The prices paid during a forced sale are quite low and it is a good idea to avoid it if you can. Additionally, you cannot purchase anything during your turn, nor can you give orders that require an expenditure, as long as you are too far in debt.\n\nOn the other hand, there is nothing wrong with borrowing as long as you stay within your credit limit. In fact, since the world banking community likes to have your country in debt, every time you borrow and then repay the money your credit limit for the future increases. Credit limit also depends on the industrial strength of your Great Power.\n
3221 This turn you should:\n\n1. Build railroad track with the Engineer, or choose to build a new depot in his present location.\n\n2. Continue prospecting.
3222 If you have not built a miner yet, do so this turn. Miners can be built on the Industry screen in the university building.\n\nTo tell a miner to mine, wait until he is the flashing unit and then click on a mineral you discovered. The miner moves to the site and starts building a mine. \n\nWhen the mine is done, the miner can be reassigned and the minerals can be collected by your transport network.
3223 On the introductory difficulty setting, you have plenty of materials and money to develop your country. You should try to plan your future development with reference to the needs of your industry and workers.\n\nFor instance, some of your workers eat fruit each turn, but your beginning transport network does not supply fruit. Eventually you will need to establish a port or rail depot that is near some fruit orchards.\n
3231 This turn you should:\n\n1. Build a new rail depot with the Engineer if he has reached the valuable resources. He can build a depot only in the same tile he now occupies. Click on that tile when the Engineer is flashing. A dialog box appears. Click on the "railhead" button.\n\n2. If your miner is idle assign him to mine minerals you have discovered. If you don't own a miner, it would be a good idea to build one this turn.\n\n3. Keep your Prospector exploring for more minerals.
3232 This demo version of Imperialism provides you with a military advantage over your nearby foes. If you wish to conduct some attacks next turn, you should declare war this turn.\n\nSince your attack forces are deployed in Hukchi, the designated victim is Loke (to the west). You may declare war on Loke using the diplomacy screen.\n\n
3241 In Hukchi Province your armies are ready for a powerful attack against a potentially valuable Minor Nation\n\nTo select these armies you need to scroll to Hukchi and click on the small encampment tents near the town. You see your forces in the toolbar. Use the arrows in the toolbar to select the units to attack.\n\nIf you declared war last turn you see a red crossed swords cursor over the provinces owned by the Minor Nation. Click on one of these provinces with this attack cursor and your forces are ordered to attack this turn.\n\nIf you don't see the red crossed swords, verify:\n1. You declared war in a previous turn.\n2. You used the arrows in the toolbar to select which troops should attack.\n\nOnly the mobile forces attack. Local militia remain in your province.\n\n
3242 If your miner has finished his first mine and your Engineer has constructed a new railhead, you can continue your internal development.\n\nThis turn you should: \n\n1. Open a new mine if you have discovered additional minerals.\n\n2. Begin to use the Engineer to get some fruit for your workers, unless you have already built a depot that gathers fruit. Of the various types of food, fruit is the one you lack near your capital.
3243 Once you have built new mines and new depots, you need to use the transport ledger to change your transport orders.\n\nThe toolbar button showing a small crate with and arrow under it leads you to the transport ledger.\n
3251 You may set your preferences for sound, music, minister briefings, warnings, and combat resolution using this screen. Generally, if a button is dark that preference is turned off. \n\nFor sound and music, you can drag the dark region partly across the button to set volume to intermediate levels.
3252 Battles may be resolved tactically or strategically. With tactical battles on, you maneuver your individual regiments on a battlefield against the regiments of your enemies.\n\nIn the demo version of Imperialism (which is based on a beta development version of the game), tactical battles are less stable than the rest of the game. If you want to be sure to finish the demo with no problems, set this preference to strategic resolution.
3253 Minister briefings may be set to arrive automatically when you go to a new screen. Some screens have several briefings which appear in sequence with each subsequent turn. You should turn this preference on if you're sure you want to read all the available help.

4001 \nGreetings, your Excellency. As the ruler of a burgeoning Empire you enjoy a vast amount of power over political, military, and economic affairs. Minister Briefings are available to help you learn the interfaces through which you issue your commands.\n\nAlthough it can be played on an infinite variety of random maps, Imperialism is modeled on the world at the beginning of the Industrial Revolution. The world is divided into Great Powers--your and your rivals-- and Minor Nations ripe for exploitation. \n\nThis introductory level demo is designed for your success. Your industries are well supplied, and your country possesses plentiful and easily accessible resources. You enjoy military superiority over your neighbors and good diplomatic relations with several smaller nations. \n\nThe demo allows you to play 10 years. The full version of the game can run over 100 years if no Great Power prevails before that time.\n\nClick on the Globe to begin the demo.

22979 Your Excellency, a war against Loke, our small and weak neighbor to the west, I could understand. \n\nBut this declaration makes me fear you have fallen too deeply under the sway of the Defense Minister.
22980 Goal Achieved, but at what cost?
22981 Congratulations - you have achieved one of your goals for the demo: \n\nYou have given a trade subsidy. This will raise us in that nation's preferred bidder order. We will be more likely to be able to trade with them.

22988 Reallocate Resources
22989 You cannot build that unit right now because you do not have an expert worker available. You need to either create an expert in the Trade School, or reduce the work being done elsewhere so 4 units of labor are freed up.
22990 You cannot build that unit right now because you do not have enough paper. You need to either create paper in the Lumber Mill, or reduce the amount of paper being used elsewhere.
22991 Goals Reminder
23061 Purchase Land to Develop
23062 Your excellency, the governor of [1] will sell us this land for [2], which will entitle us to develop it. Do you agree?
23063 Your excellency, the governor of [1] has set the price of this land at [2], which we cannot afford.
23064 Disband Civilian
23065 Your excellency, we may disband this unit and send the workers back to the city, but we will not recover the costs of creating it. Proceed?
23066 Your excellency, this developer unit represents a group of private businessmen and will add nothing to the city if we disband them. I could trump up some charges against them if you wish. Proceed?

23362 These men move rapidly across all terrain. They are taught to take cover and fight when not in formation.
23363 Regular infantry regiments carry muskets and bayonets. They fight best when fortified.
23364 Grenadier's weapons are similar to those of the regulars, but their training allows then to inflict more damage.
23365 Hussars are the fastest scouts in the army but should not be used to attack formed troops.
23366 Cuirassiers spearhead attacks, but are most effective when attacking unentrenched and unsupported infantry.
23367 Horse Artillery can be risked closer to enemy lines in immediate support of an attack.
23368 These guns devastate their foes and demolish fortifications but their slow speed makes them vulnerable.
23370 Unformed troops armed with long rifles, adept at using terrain for concealment.
23371 New breechloading rifles allow these infantry to fire faster, and at longer ranges.
23372 Guard regiments recruit only the largest and strongest soldiers.
23373 Scouts are lightly armed and fast horsemen adept at reporting on the enemy positions and escaping when sighted.
23374 Armed with new rapid fire carbines, these cavalry regiments devestate their foes.
23375 With a rifled gun barrel these units are capable of firing at much longer range than earlier cannons.
23376 These guns, while extremely slow in the field, batter entrenchments, knock down walls, and disrupt the foe.
23378 Mostly concealed from view, these regiments withstand the fire from the enemy quite well.
23379 Armed with modern rifles, the infantry inflicts extraordinary damage on the attacking forces.
23380 The firepower of the machine gun makes attacking nearly suicidal without armored units.
23381 Mechanized Infantry is used to exploit a breakthrough created by armor. Alone, they cannot successfully attack.
23382 Armored units are used to break the enemy line or restore a shattered line and combat an enemy breakthrough.
23383 Large guns towed behind trucks, mobile artillery is a flexible means of inflicting a preliminary bombardment.
23384 Railroad guns, while limited in their ability to reach the battlefield, have long range and devestating power.
23385 Sappers are useless in hand to hand combat, but are capable of destroying fortified enemy positions.
23386 These demolition experts use newly developed explosives to destroy enemy positions.
23387 Saboteurs are adept at demolition, and in approaching the enemy positions secretly.

23561 Traders are slow, defenseless, and have a small carrying capacity. Their one virtue is their extremely low price.
23562 These large ships are slow and incapable of defending themselves against a ship of the line or a frigate. \n
23563 Constructed with one deck of cannons, frigates are used as scouts, raiders, and escorts.
23564 Bristling with up to 130 smoothbore cannons arranged on two or three gun decks, the most powerful vessels in the world until ironclads are developed.
23565 Although faster than earlier sailing vessels, these early steamers cannot compete with a clipper for speed.\n
23566 Clippers are more likely than other ships to run a blockade or to escape from hostile fleets, due to their speed.
23567 These wooden vessels are fast scouts and commerce raiders. Their cannon are rifled breech loaders but they are too weak to fight in the line of battle.\n
23568 Early ironclads resist the firepower of foes with armor, but carry fewer cannon than a Ship-of-the-Line.
23569 New long range guns allow advanced ironclads to achieve command of the sea.
23570 Freighters are large vessels constructed mainly of iron. They have an enormous carrying capacity.
23571 Inexpensive to build, these ships are highly efficient. Armored cruisers sink raiders by remaining out of their range.\n
23572 An all big gun warship with turbine engines, a dreadnought can sink other vessels before they move in range to return fire.
23573 Although possesed of the guns of a dreadnought, it is risky for a battle cruiser to engage enemy dreadnoughts due to its lighter armor.

23663 Build merchant ships
23664 Your Excellency. The Great Power of [1:countryName] has more than twice our merchant cargo space.\n\nI respectfully urge you to build more merchant ships in the Shipyard.
23665 Increase Labor Supply
23666 Your Excellency. The Great Power of [1:countryName] can muster more than twice the industrial labor we can.\n\nI respectfully suggest you recruit fresh workers using the the Capitol, and improve the quality of our work force using the Trade School.
23667 Expand the Textile Mill
23668 Your Excellency. The Great Power of [1:countryName] has a textile industry with a capacity more than double ours. \n\nPlease consider giving orders to expand the textile mill.

23672 Your Excellency. The Great Power of [1:countryName] has a lumber industry with a capacity more than double ours. \n\nPlease consider expanding the capacity of our lumber mill.
23673 Build the Oil Refinery
23674 Your Excellency. We have invested in the technology to take advantage of oil. The Great Power of [1:countryName] has already built and expanded their oil refinery several times.\n\nI respectfully urge you to build an oil refinery.
23675 Invest in Oil Wells
23676 Your Excellency, while we dally over investing in oil wells, the Great Power of [1: countryName] is surging ahead with their oil industry.\n\nI respectfully urge you to invest in oil wells!
23677 Expand the Oil Refinery
23678 Your Excellency. The Great Power of [1:countryName] has an oil refining industry with a capacity more than double ours. \n\nPlease consider expanding the capacity of our oil refinery.
23679 Strengthen the Army
23680 Your Excellency. The Great Power of [1:countryName] has an army more than twice as strong as ours. \n\nIt is a dangerous state of affairs. I strongly urge you to build army units.
23681 Strengthen the Navy
23682 Your Excellency. The Great Power of [1:countryName] has a navy more than twice as strong as ours. \n\nIt is a dangerous state of affairs. I strongly urge you to build naval units.
23683 Provide Balanced Diet
23684 Your Excellency, although no one starved, our infrastructure does not supply the workers with a balanced diet. Workers are calling in sick. \n\nI respectfully suggest you bring in a better mix of fresh food from the countryside, or trade for canned food.
23685 Invest in Technology
23686 Your Excellency, exciting new technologies are available from which we could benefit with merely a small investment to retool affected industries.\n\nI respectfully suggest you consider investing in technology.
23687 Diplomatic Lead Overthrown!
23688 Your Excellency, due to your wise policies, we had enjoyed the greatest influence over the Minor Nation of [1: name].\n\nI am chagrined to report that over the past 6 months, the most undeserving Great Power of [2: name] has usurped our position.\n\n
23689 Prepare for Battle
23690 Your Excellency, the Great Power of [1: countryname] declared war on us!\n\nYou and the Defense Minister must mobilize the army and navy and defend the capitol city at all costs. Diplomacy has failed.
23691 Slipping behind in battle for markets
23692 Your Excellency, the Great Power of [1: countryName] has become the most favored trade partner with the minor nation of [2: countryName].\n\nSubsidies and frequent trade deals would help us regain our former lead.
23693 Feed the Workers
23694 Your Excellency, food stocks have run dangerously low. Under your current orders, valuable workers will starve!\n\nI urge you to reconsider your trade and transport orders.
23695 Update Transport Orders
23696 Your Excellency, I beg you never to leave freight cars or barges idle. \n\nValuable transport capacity is going to waste. Please give me updated transport orders.
23697 Provide Diplomatic Orders
23698 Your Excellency, the foreign ministers of the world are about to exchange diplomatic proposals, as they do every 6 months. \n\nI have not yet received any orders from you. Please give me instructions using the diplomacy screen.
23699 Use Diplomacy Wisely
23700 Your Excellency, perhaps we could use some of our funds to gain influence in other countries.
23701 Capitol in Danger!
23702 Your Excellency, hostile forces stronger than our defending armies now border the Capitol City. \n\nThe situation is dire. I leave tonight for my country estate.
23703 Capitol in Danger!
23704 Your Excellency, at least one fleet stronger than our defending navy now controls the seas off our Capitol City. \n\nThe situation is dire. Our trader could be blockaded and hostile landings are possible. I leave tonight for my country estate.
23705 Build a Miner
23706 Congratulations upon your successful prospecting. To make these minerals available for transport, you need to send a miner to this spot to work.\n\nIf you don't already have one, I suggest training a miner in the university (in the Industry screen).
23707 Build a Railhead
23708 Your Excellency, it is frequently a good idea to consider ordering the engineer to build a railhead once he has laid enough track to get beyond the radius of the city. \n\nThe railhead would allow you to transport in resources the city can't reach.
23709 Transport Resources
23710 Your Excellency, I remind you that now that this worker has finished his job, you need to give transport orders to benefit from the additional resources.
23711 Connect all Railheads
23712 Congratulations upon the completion of a new depot. \n\nNotice the signal next to the building. If it is green, the depot is connected to the city and you can give transport orders to bring in new resources (click the transport button under the mini-map).
23713 Transport Resources
23714 Congratulations upon the completion of a new port. I remind you to set new transport orders to take advantage of the resources it makes available.\n\nBecause ports do not need to be connected by rail, you can set new orders right away.
23715 Increase Transport Capacity
23716 We now have more resources available than we can transport in one turn. This is an excellent sign of growth.\n\nI suggest building more transport capacity from the Railyard in the Industry screen.

23764 Left blank. Do not translate.
23765 We are not at war with this country, so a peace treaty is unnecessary at this point.

23979 If connected to the transport network, a rail depot gathers all commodities in its own terrain tile and in adjacent tiles, and makes them available for transport to industry.
23980 A port gathers all resources from its own terrain tile, adjacent tiles, and from adjacent rivers and ocean tiles. Unless the port or the capital city is blockaded the resources gathered are always available.\n
23981 Rivers connect ports built in any tile on the river. Each river tile supplies one unit of fish to an adjacent port.\n
23982 A mine allows minerals present to be extracted.\n
23983 Increases the output of logging operations.
