Portugal and Holland lay emphasis not on capturing new territories, but rather on expansion and strengthening of trade. They have only a few colonies in the archipelago, but these colonies are wealthy and developed. In the first case, islands are textured, 3D models with an offshore zone of mooring. In the second a generated landscape enables the player character to move on foot and meet various game objects. As previously stated, most islands have towns on them.
Forts guard many of the towns.
A player can only enter if the nation the settlement belongs to is friendly to them or if they have captured the protecting fort. This massive and multi-faceted world will embrace the player, plunging them into a whirlpool of fascinating and exceptional sea adventures.
