Create your civilization in The Settlers: New Allies
The Settlers are a series of city-building and real-time-strategy games produced for the most part by Blue Byte. The series was taken over by Ubisoft in 2001.
The objective of these games for the most part is heavily focused on settlement building and tons of economy-based management. Many consider the Settler games to be more of an economy management game since a large part of the experience is micromanaging the sustainability of your settlement.
The game features military units as well and players can choose to conquer territory and expand the reach and scale of their settlement. Some games of the series had more emphasis on military dynamics while others such as The Settlers: Rise of an Empire focused more on city-building and economy.
Settlers New Allies which is releasing thirteen years after the last game (The Settlers Online) will feature a rich story-driven campaign. The game features three factions “Elari, Maru & Jorn.” You play as the Elari faction who have been pushed out from their homeland and need to make friends with the other two factions and find somewhere to build up your settlement.
