What to expect from Age of Empires 3: The Baltic Powers
The Baltic Powers DLC will be highlighted by two new Civilizations to dominate the land and the sea. First, we have the Danes, who can shape up their economy with their military presence, economic intelligence, and naval control.
The Poles, on the other hand, have their superiority in the agricultural department and an ever-expanding army. You can pick between leading early Cossack uprisings or the resurrection of the Teutonic Knights.
You can also find two new challenge scenarios to test your tactical skills. Furthermore, you can either defend the Polish-Lithuanian realm against invaders or lead a desperate Spanish defense against a British assault in Havana Heat.
The Baltic Powers DLC also brings two new game modes. In Regicide, you get to eliminate the enemy Regents for an instant win. In Independence, you get to abandon the safety of your home city and prove your prowess in skill and strategy.
You can also test out all the new features across 25 new maps, and you can also expect plenty of minor additions as part of the DLC.
