I am playing as the Dutch Empire in a game called Age of Antiquity, set in the Americas at the start of European colonization. I have 10 Army, 12 Colonists, and 6 Tech. Army can be used to invade neighbors, colonists can be used to settle unclaimed land, and technology boosts these things. Every turn I can build up my army to gain more, invade a country using my preexisting army, use my colonists to settle land, hire more colonists, or skip my turn and leave it up to fate.
