Civilizations - There will be 21 included civilizations. Heroes - Male and Female heroes will play a pivotal role in Empire Earth. You can choose to play a four epoch game for example. Since water is an elevation, there is no actual tool for only placing water. And, since water is an elevation, you can have many different levels of depth, and even place terrain under the water.
Water is created through the elevation menu.
Any elevation that is less then 0 automatically becomes water. So, if I place an area with elevation -2, it will automatically become water. Units can walk through water with an elevation of -1. The player cannot move any units or the camera, so you must script all the action. Once you deactivate the cinematic mode, the scenario continues on as usual.
