War Cheifs is a great addition 
2007-08-01
The game introduces some fun elements to the play. The Indian tribes seem a little weak, but it is still fun to play their unique abilities.
Well worth $25 but I am glad I did not spend $50.
daughter and friend love it 
2007-07-18
although I have been a fan of the series I dont have the time to play so I have turned my daughter onto the game she is now hooked and is playing online w a friend..maybe not a good idea after all :)
Even the Demo is Amazing 2007-05-16
You can play as either the British or the Spanish in the Mac OS X demo. I've gotten probably over 80 hours of play time just out of the demo. I can't wait to buy the bonafide version!
Be careful this is adictive... 2007-05-14
I've been playing this game since it was first released and added the expansion pack as quickly as it came out. I just don't get tired of it. I highly recommend it.
The newest release builds on the past two with all of the fantastic strategy included in the earlier games. The new improvements are vast and I'm sure that other users and reviews will be able to expand on them more directly. However, if you've played AoE games in the past, this one will not disappoint. They've dropped some of the more esoteric and mundane steps (like villagers constantly returning to town center) and have added simplifying features but haven't sacrificed any of the strategy. I think version three finally brings it all together.
There are a few features which are lacking, however, the scenario game play is a little weak in AoE III and I didn't see any addition in the expansion pack. Also, the scenario creator has so much potential for active users to build situations that others might like to play but requires so much time and effort as to be useless.
On the whole, I certainly recommend this game and the expansion pack to anyone who is interested in strategy games.
Excellent! 2007-05-06
This game is an outstanding addition to the Age of Empires saga. The game combines excellent graphics and a great storyline for single player. Skirmishes are very fun with the new civilizations and technologies. I would recommend this game to anyone who likes a good RTS game!
AWESOME! 2008-03-18
I've been playing Aoe3 for a long time, and am exicted to get the Warchiefs ep. I am engrossed by the realistic graphics. Its worth many whistles.
Must Have Expansion!! 2008-02-10
Wow! EA and MS do it again with this near full length expansion of Age of Empires III. Beautiful graphics, tons of chances to level up your home city and a followable storyline make this one of the best AoE yet!
I love this game! 2007-11-20
I love the features of this game, the battles you can choose, in all, I really, really enjoy this game.
A Great Addition to a Great Game 2007-11-11
Age of Empires III: The Warchiefs Expansion Pack is an excellent compliment to the revolutionary graphics and game play of Age of Empires III. I highly recommend it to others because of it's continuation of the series. Plus, it is basically cost-effective fun. If you ran out of missions on AOE III, get this expansion pack and continue playing. You'll enjoy it.
Another great flavor of AOE... 2007-09-01
I've been playing the Age series for a few years and had a little trouble getting into Age of Mythology quite as much as good ol' AOE II. However, when AOE3 arrived... woot! For me, AOE3 felt like a return to the same great game style of AOE II with a fresh look and feel -- and I've come to love AOE3 the way I did AOE II. With the WarChief expansion pack, you get another great flavor of AOE3 above and beyond the plain vanilla. The three new Indian civilizations are a great addition, particularly with the fire pit, which allows you to switch between different bonuses depending on what your strategy is at the moment. There's also new home city shipment cards available that help make each civilization a bit more unique -- yes, many civs can share certain cards but it's the combos that define the civs' strengths.
As with all AOE games (and, let's face it, with any Microsoft product!), there will always be those who will nitpick as to whether a new game is as good as the old, whether an expansion pack really EXPANDED the game, etc. Let's just say that if you're looking for a game with great graphics and audio quality, a rich sense of history and excellent combat and strategy components in either a single player or online environment, you can't go wrong with AOE3 with the WarChiefs expansion pack.
