A is included as well. Each of the nine civilizations features a unique style of play: for example, the French and English have powerful defensive capabilities, while Chinese structures are mobile. During a match, the player must gather resources to progress their civilization to a new historical era, after which more advanced technologies and units (land-, sea- and airborne) become available. Four civilizations are playable from the medieval to the age; at the beginning of, the player transitions their civilization to one of the remaining five.

In the past, historical realism has tended to constrain game play to a finite set of established conventions, which have been used again and again. At Stainless Steel, we felt that history had provided us with a vast wealth of inspiration for incredibly exciting game play. History should not be limiting at all. In fact, just the opposite is true. Rick Goodman started work on Empires in 2002.

The project was led by company head, designer of ' and Stainless Steel's earlier. The Empires team began by studying their previous game for features that could be reused or improved. In addition, they mined history books for interesting 'events, battle tactics, weapons, technologies and economic factors', according to Goodman. A list was drafted of 100 historical elements that excited the team, and it formed the basis of the project. Although a heavy focus was placed on historical accuracy, designer Richard Bishop explained that 'fun always comes first.' As it had with Empire Earth, Stainless Steel delegated separate teams to the multiplayer and single-player modes of Empires.

Further inspiration came from surveys of Empire Earth players, conducted during 2002. For example, the team found that Empire Earth 's medieval and World War II periods were the most popular, while its futuristic and periods were the least. In response, the team reduced the span of Empires to 1,000 years, from the Middle Ages until World War II. Goodman believed that this could make the game many times deeper than Empire Earth. Also requested by players were fully unique civilizations, without overlapping units or styles of play—a feature that Goodman claimed to be a first for a history-based RTS game. The team discovered that those who favored the single-player mode in Empire Earth preferred slower, more gameplay. However, multiplayer users were split, with half in favor of shorter matches filled with combat.
