Fight the Homeland and Establish a New Nation: Play as the English, Spanish, French or the Dutch and journey to a brave new world in search of freedom from your oppressive homeland.
Classic Game Design Rebuilt for the Modern Era: Usher forth a new generation of Sid Meier’s Colonization gameplay built on the award-winning Civilization IV engine, providing the beautiful visuals, famously addictive gameplay and endless fun that are synonymous with Sid Meier strategy games. Features of Sid Meiers Civilization IV Colonization: Players will be challenged to guide their people from the oppressive motherland, discover a New World, negotiate, trade and fight as they acquire great power and battle for their freedom and independence. A re-imagining of the classic Colonization game Sid Meier created in 1994, Sid Meier’s Civilization IV: Colonization is a total conversion of the Civilization IV engine into a game experience in which players will lead a European nation on their quest to colonize and thrive in the New World. Or rather, remove map metadata for Natives in Notepad, edit the map in World Builder, remove the newly generated metadata in the World Builder save in Notepad, and reinsert the metadata for Natives.Sid Meier’s Civilization IV: Colonization is the third offering in the award winning Civilization IV series. To fix this issue, I had to edit the map in Notepad. This had the disadvantage of locking the colonizing powers into particular starting locations, as well as removing the randomized placing of the Natives. It were, however, a bit more difficult to get it right, as the map editor, or World Builder, that came with Colonization required that you started a game before editing the map. This is why I made a map, where the high seas are placed approximately 4 tiles from the coast. 
This put the player at a distinct advantage, as the player would always start at the optimal position. If you started in Florida, it would take a Caravel more than 8 turns to make the trip to Europe, compared to 2-3 turns from easternmost tip of Latin America. The Huge Western Hemisphere (Americas) map that came with Civilization IV: Colonization had one major letdown: Aside from the easternmost tip of Latin America, there were a large distance between the coasts and the high seas.
