i am thinking that the playing method of chariot of war is similiar with imperialism 2 from SSI
.It just the differences melee combat turn into battle of fire arm;cannons, musketeers,early rifles fight with red indian like tribe,conquering the new world.The technology trees in imperialism 2 were my favourite.If there was naval battle will be great like iron clad sinking a galleon.Of course,those units are already inside imperialism 2,i just want to see 80 grenadier fight with 80 halbedier,who will win?we don't know yet!

Just so you know, red indian is not a very polite term. Try amerindian.

i am sorry,but i mean no offend!i just try to find an appropriate example for what i am thinking.Now it seems it was called amerindian,thanks for teaching.What do you mean not polite?

and i just find out,how those developers going to do the animation of muskeeteers combat,becoz those early firearms take very long time to reload,how they gonna show like the 1st line firing then reload,and then the 2nd line to fire....i just wonder.....

Its a term that is extremely similar (although Im not sure if it itself was used) to terms used by fontiersmen who were in conflict with them. As you can imagine, it carries some rather harsh connotations.

Don't get too bent up about it, there are worse phrases by far.

"Native American" is the currently fashionable phrase.

Speaking as someone who is both Cherokee and Blackfoot, I don't care. Red Indian is fine with me, since he is obviously just trying to avoid confusion with indian-subcontinent Indians, i.e. neighbors to the Pakistanis

I always thought Amerind or Amerindian sounded silly, but that's just me

The tragedy is what was done to the aboriginal peoples of the americas, not what they were called. And the people responsible for that are long since dead and gone, so what's the big deal?
