Description
ANNO 1503 A.D. includes Anno 1503: The New World and its expansion Treasures, Monsters & Pirates.

Lay claim to the New World in an epic saga of adventure and discovery. ANNO 1503 A.D. is a PC title that blends the excitement of real-time strategy with the depth of empire building.

The aim of the game is to establish colonies and seek out wealth and power. Watch your colonies grow while establishing trade and diplomatic ties with neighbouring cultures. Engage in combat on land and at sea to protect your colonies or to maintain freedom and independence.

The all-new combat system allows for much more sophisticated tactical preparation and some truly epic land and sea-based battles. Enjoy the variety and challenge of five varying climate zones while competing against computer-controlled players, including interactions with nine different cultures such as the Africans, Aztecs and Native Americans.

Stretch your influence through a powerful economic system which varies depending on location and includes goods such as weaponry, raw materials, and necessities such as clothes and food as well as more exotic items like silk and spices. Trades can be made several different ways, via an easily accessible trading menu that allows you to interact with other nations and form peace treaties. However, some cultures may rely on a more offensive, aggressive style of interaction, which can lead to potential conflict.

  • Unique blend of real-time strategy with the depth of an empire-building epic.
  • Compete against computer-controlled players and interact with nine different cultures from the 16th Century - each with their own personal traits and unique characteristics.
  • Settle in climates as diverse as frozen tundra, bleak deserts and lush jungles - each with their own unique natural resources, vegetation, wildlife and terrain.
  • New combat system - vary your tactics based on the opponent, terrain and weaponry.
  • Enhanced AI - differences in cultures lead to a variety of behaviors and interactions.
  • Over 250 authentic building types including tobacco plantations, watchtowers and cannon foundries.
  • Several gameplay modes - Single Scenario, Campaign, and Open-Ended

Problems

This game is a disaster. It could be ok if it worked. You can not alt-tab away from the game. It seems that GOG has disabled this feature as some kind of half assed fix. But it is a nightmare solution. If or I should say When the game crashes you are stuck with it and have to shut down the whole computer as YOU CAN NOT ALT-TAB away from the game or even start the task manager...

No cheats

With this new version from GOG you can no longer use the in game cheats. I have an old copy of this game and you could swap out the AnnoFrame.dll file to enable cheats. Since I upgraded to Windows 10 it won't play anymore. This new version does run on Windows 10, but will not run with the modified AnnoFrame.dll. So if you are one of those purist nuts that does not cheat on single player games then this is fine for you. Just not for me.

'

An operator of an MRI machine in a hospital allowed us to use the machine for research. We found a nurse who was under intense pressure by her husband to have her newborn son c(1rc[um5cis3d , and she was willing to have her son to be the subject of our study. Since no permission of the ethics committee was required to perform any routine male infant , we did not feel it was necessary to seek any permission to carry out this study. It was my idea to use fMRI and/or PET scanning to directly observe the effects of c on the infant brain. We tightly strapped an infant to a traditional plastic "t" using Velcro restraints. We also completely immobilized the infant's head using standard surgical tape.
