Game Variant
There are two game variations in Empire Earth, which provide two different ways to play.
Standard – This option is for playing a normal Random Map game.  
Tournament – This option allows you to play quicker games of Empire Earth with less
“build-up” time compared to Standard games.  Tournament games differ from Standard
games in a few key ways:
Epoch advancements in Tournament games cost less.
All buildings, walls, and towers have fewer hit points.
Capitals and Town Centres provide less maximum morale.
Resource gathering is faster in Tournament games.
Difficulty
The level of difficulty affects how the computer players (if any) play the game.
Easy –This is a good setting for beginners.
Medium – This is the default difficulty setting.  Intermediate players may wish to use
this setting.
Hard – This difficulty setting provides a challenge even for more experienced players.
Game Speed
You can choose one of four different game speeds.  Once the game begins, you can change
the game speed using the plus (+) and minus (-) keys, unless Lock Speed was checked on the
Setup screen (see below).
Slow – One-third slower than the Standard speed.
Standard – This is the default game speed.
Fast – Twice as fast as the Slow setting.
Very Fast – Recommended for experienced players only.
Wonders for Victory
Choose the number of Wonders a player or team has to con-
struct in order to win the game with a Wonder victory.  The
Wonders must be kept standing for a set period of time, as
indicated by the Wonder clock.  Set this option to Off if you
want to build Wonders without triggering a victory.
