	Historic Ships
		Unlike the other two ships on this voyage, the Niña and the Pinta which were caravels, the Santa Maria was a nao, or full rigged ship, which made it both larger and slower than her sister ships.
		The other ships in the voyage were: the Trinidad, the flagship for the voyage and weighed 100 tons, the San Antonio, 120 tons, the Concepcion, 90 tons, and the caravel, Santiago, which was 75 tons.
		Several ships of the Revenge class lay in wait for the flotilla at Flores in the northern Azores, but nearly half the men on board were stricken with a fever epidemic.

		In a frenzy, the mutineers ransacked the ship and the Captain's cabin.

		In other words, the Old Man does not direct his ire at the ends of the colonial voyages as such, but rather at what the voyage to a distant East entails: the difficulty of maintaining a "wealth of titles, lords of India, Persia, Arabia and Ethiopia" without damaging the integrity of the Portuguese kingdom.

		Although it definitely has a historical feel to it, 1602 AD is designed to be as nationalistically neutral as possible (as the game was originally released in Germany, I'm pretty much okay with this).

		While there is a lot less that's new in 1503 A.D. than you would expect in a sequel released three years after its predecessor, the core gameplay that made the original game engaging remains intact.
		German developer Sunflowers' previous game 1602 A.D. was a bestseller in Europe, and the developer's newest game, 1503 A.D., follows closely in its footsteps.
		If you haven't played 1602 A.D. for some time, you might actually think you've loaded up the old game the first time you play 1503 A.D. While the new game has somewhat improved graphics, it's still hardly state of the art and doesn't dramatically change the way the game looks.
