Anno 1503
From the Box
It is the year 1503... And a new island world has been discovered.
Brave pioneers explore uncharted islands in great ships, finding bountiful lands that yield valuable resources, while they establish homes and become the first settlers of this new world. Soon their isolated cabins grow into villages, and before long they begin to establish trade agreements with the inhabitants of neighboring islands, ensuring the flow of commodities and imports. The island world begins to thrive – the inhabitants gaining prosperity and wealth as they become skilled in the art of trade. But this seemingly idle life is treacherous – wildfires threaten the rapidly growing colonies, and the seas hide gold-greedy pirates intent on booty...
