Welcome to the 19th century: The American colonies have revolted, gained their independence and they are now nations, the Natives have resisted colonization and struggle to keep their identities, the ancient Asian civilizations are now an active part of the world scenario and have to play their cards right to protect themselves, and in the Balkans, people fight for their independence from once powerful empires. There was one spot on Earth, however, that was ignored for a long time... We're at the modern era and all empires have focused their attention on this long forgotten, but now desirable, region.
This mod is set in Africa. The new continent has several new random maps, wild animals, vegetation, coin sources. Enter into business with the local African Commodity traders. Explore these new environments with unique gameplay elements, such as Congo's fog of war that resets all the time and River Nile's water trade route. Read more about Maps
We once had the Europeans, the Native Americans and the Asians. Now, five new cultures, each with unique gameplay systems, unique units and buildings join the scramble!
- The Africans
- The Latin Americans
- The Anglophones
- The Balkans
- The South American Natives
And more to come! Read More about the Civs
All previous civilizations have been improved somehow with new units and/or new bonuses. But unfortunately for them, now they will have to dispute the new continent with several new nations! We have added Egyptians, Ethiopians, Zulu, Brazilians, Paraguayans, Argentines, Colombians, Chileans, Mexicans, Americans, Canadians, Australians, Greeks, Bulgarians, Serbians, Romanians, Koreans, Tupi, Inca, Mapuche, Danes, Habsburgs, Italians and Belgians. Read More about the Civs
WoL not only includes tons of stuff from Africa, but also the entire world! Check out dozens of Random Maps from every region, like Verdon Gorge, Australia and Asuncion. Our new religion system makes priests much more interesting. Spies are now extremely dangerous and tricky. Reach the ultimate age, Great War, and crush the enemy with top-of-the-line tanks, biplanes and others. In WoL, every single civilization gets a theme song that plays at the beginning of the match. Every civilization and every scenario becomes a different experience! Read More about Gameplay
The mod never stops growing and balancing itself- and we will be releasing free content over time, including new civilizations and random maps.
WoL's installer allows you to easily install WoL and to keep it patched, that allows for a more fulfilling experience because you no longer have to worry about tricky installations. You can jump right into action!
Wars of Liberty is more fun online! Team games become a compelling and competitive alternative to 1v1s. Create team compositions that exploit and combine the aspects of every civ, there's always something new to try. Get creative and win games!
If you tried installing previously and had issues, remember to Uninstall the Throne Room. It also is advised to delete the ''Wars of Liberty'' folder in your AoE3 installation directory from the previous attempt.

Dead mod?
Surprisingly not.
Hello I'm new to this site. I recently installed WARS FOR LIBERTY MOD and I have some frustrating problems. Everything works except on the historical scenario named BATTLE OF OR FOR HAKODATE is the 3rd one in that section. When I start the scenario it starts with a machine gun some soldiers and some workers and 2 RICKSAWS: One is for to build a town center, and the other to build some military gear. But none work when I click on the hometown ricksaw nothing appears in any of the lower right corner where the squares are, they are all empty and I cannot build the town center to continue the scenario. Same thing is happening with the other ricksaw which are carried by 2 guys. VERY FRUSTRATING. Can anyone help me with this? THANKS
please add poland country
Dang, you guys got rid of the maltese, they were my favorite civilization because of the unique ability to summon a lookout tower.
What are the best defensive civs now ?
Any hopes of you guys making a 40 homecity card mini mod
Hey, i got a problem, with the last patch i cant use the maori and maltese,their villagers cant build anything and you cant create any units
Any update on this ? I feel like the mod was more complete like 5 patches ago, many units and improvements seem to be missing for me now.
Hello, you're mod is pretty cool and to be honest it's the best one made for AoE III I have played so far but I didn't care to update it looks until now, in a way I am pretty much disappointed that we can't play Malta anymore which is pretty sad because it was my favourite faction but that's not really the reason why I am writing this comment, I did the update and finally put my hands on the campaign but apparently it seems that the faction are not the good ones because for the second battle I got Serbia as civilization and I don't really think that's the one you were planning to put in there so I would like to ask if this is normal or if there is something I have to do.
Whoever designed the immigrant town centres and houses for the South American civs did an outstanding job.
