Rise of Nations: Rise of Legends Patch Notes

Rise of Legends, the follow up to the widely acclaimed Rise of Nations game, has been living up to expectations ever since it’s release last May. That’s why you can’t really blame its developers if they constantly try to make things better and easier. If you have no idea what Rise of Legends is all about, it is a real-time strategy game for the PC made by Big Huge Games, and published by Microsoft.

It is the spiritual successor to the popular game, Rise of Nations released on May 2003. However, rather than being a historical game, it is based in a fantasy world, where technology and magic coexist. Rise of Legends has only three races – the technology-loving human Vinci, the magical Alin, and the demigod-like Cuotl (who replace the Wealth resource with Energy, offering a new gather strategy). With all those info refreshing your memories about this game, here are the game’s patch notes.
