AC: Divided Nation Due Out On October 17
American Conquest: Divided Nation, an American Civil War RTS game based on American Conquest, has an estimated release date of October 17, 2005. Here is a preview from Game Spot. I don't know too much about the American Conquest series, but I've heard that it is a nation-building and resource-collecting game in the same vein as Age of Empires. I'm pretty sure the historical accuracy might leave something to be desired, but it looks like a pretty fun game. The Hawks Online Gaming Community plays the entire series of American Conquest games, and they have a pretty interesting site. It looks like they will be the place to go for mods
involving the new game.
