Empire Earth II has several new gameplay features
from the original gameplay of Empire Earth, such as the Picture-in-Picture window, a small window within
the game interface which allows the player to control
activities such as unit and building construction. The
Citizen Manager can be configured to tell a citizen
what to do if they have no set task, and the
Diplomacy System allows the player to make tributes and manage alliances and wars with other players.
The War Planner is another new addition, which is a
map of the game that the player can display and use
to coordinate attacks with allies. The crown system
grants strategic bonuses to players who are first to
master an epoch’s military, economic, or imperial paths at the cost of losing a faster age progression.
Weather, another new feature, changes over time on
the map and affects the look of the map and
performance of units and, in the case of airplanes in
thunderstorms, hit points.
