INTRODUCTION
INTRODUCTION
Call to Power II is an epic game of strategy and empire building. Nurture a fledgling
nation into the most powerful empire in history. How you weigh your desires to
explore the world, discover advances, conquer other nations, and maintain peace
will mean the difference between victory and defeat.
nation into the most powerful empire in history. How you weigh your desires to
explore the world, discover advances, conquer other nations, and maintain peace
will mean the difference between victory and defeat.
Leading an entire nation of people is a Herculean task, and success is not
guaranteed. Compelled by duty to your people, you will need to build cities,
establish populations, and manage their needs. You will have to master the forces
of nature and use land to your advantage without upsetting the delicate balance of
the ecology. You must fend off barbarian invasions and engage other nations of all
stripes in various arenas—on the battlefield and at the negotiations table. And,
perhaps most important, you will shepherd your people through the cultural and
scientific advances that will enable your progress through time.

You will have a vast array of resources available. How you allocate these resources
will dramatically affect your empire's viability and prosperity. You may choose to
sacrifice scientific advancement in favor of a strong military. You may concentrate
on building a few large cities and minimize your expansion. You may set out to
explore the world, only to find out that a sudden invasion of your homeland forces
you to protect your people. Above all, you must manage your objectives
thoughtfully and temper your personal desires by accommodating the needs of
your ever-changing empire.

A variety of factors internal and external to your empire will affect your success as
a leader. Such things as your proximity to rival empires, access to natural
resources and goods, the defensibility of the terrain you control, and your access to
navigable waterways will influence your choices.
