Unit Upgrades
New time periods also bring new types of units.  As you progress
through the Epochs, older types of military units become less effective
when compared to contemporary units.  One option available to you is
unit upgrading.  Upgrading allows you to modernize your older units to
keep your forces up to date.  For example, in the Copper Age you can upgrade all
your Clubmen into more-powerful Mace Men.  There are many upgrade paths in
Empire Earth, with new lines forming and old ones ending as your civilisation
progresses through time.
Winning a Game
There are many possible strategies and paths to victory in Empire Earth and they can’t all be
covered here.  You might build up a massive army and conquer your enemies, construct
Wonders of the World, unleash devastating Calamities on enemy cities, or convert an oppo-
nent’s populace with Priests.  You decide how to play and how to win.
REFERENCE: See Chapter III for more information on winning and losing
the game.  To exit a finished game, click on Quit this Game in the Game
Options menu.  You can then view the game statistics.
NOTE: Unit upgrades keep any improvements you made for the previous
units.  You’ll notice that your Mace Men have retained the improved Attack
strength you gave to your old Clubmen.
INSTRUCTION
Advance to the Copper Age – you will need to build two more buildings and accu-
mulate the necessary resources.  Then go to the Barracks and you will see an
Upgrade button above the Train Clubman button.  Click that Upgrade button and all
your Clubmen upgrade into Mace Men.  The Train Clubman button is replaced by
the Train Mace Man button so that you can train new Mace Men.
