Description
Take on the role of a Civil War general, Texas militia leader, or pirate captain
The 19th century. North America. A time and place of turmoil that, once the smoke cleared and the blood washed away, would leave a nation forever changed:
Bravely, an outnumbered ragtag American militia, supported by pirates and privateers, fought off the British in a grueling series of contests during the Battle of New Orleans.
"Remember the Alamo!" was but one Texan war cry as they clashed with a numerically superior Mexican army, each determined to defend their respective territorial claims.
Brother fought against brother, forced to choose the Union blue or the Confederacy gray; meanwhile names like Robert E. Lee, "Stonewall" Jackson, Ulysses S. Grant, Antietam and Gettysburg filled the pages of history, their footnotes written in blood, sweat and tears.
American Conquest: Divided Nation is a real-time strategy game based upon events in 19th century American history. Building upon the successful American Conquest series, Divided Nation offers nine historically inspired campaigns that span the American Civil War, the Texas War for Independence and the Battle of New Orleans.
