The scope of this game - ??
What exactly is the scope of this game? I mean it's "American Revolution" BUT for instance -- Does it only have the map of the British colonies? Is there Europe? Is there Canada or Mexico? Is there the whole of the present-day USA? Can you actually continue beyond the period of American Revolution and, say, colonise the western territories, fight against Indians, Mexico, British Canada? How many and which countries can you play as? ...

The main goal of the game is to knock out the British from the territory of the states, you brought up a great idea about other colonies, it would be good if the developers paid attention to it, I think if they added another company, for example, for France, then it would have to be bought

You can only fight at Northeastern America(Eastern part of USA and Canada). You can choose between Revolutionaries and British.

The scope is the entire eastern half of north america - for the US campaign. Meaning it spans from Spanish Florida all the way up to Quebec and from the Atlantic ocean out as far as Ohio. In addition to fighting the british, you can fight multiple tribes of native americans, the spanish, the french... depends on how you decide to play the campaign.

I haven't played the british campaign yet, so I can't speak to whether they incorporated Europe or the Caribbean isles. I find it unlikely, but there may be some staged naval battles or something.

I think the main focus of the game is the US vs British theater of the... American Revolutionary War. Not sure the scope was intended to be a time piece of the whole of the colonial British empire.

If you want something more in line with that, maybe GameLab's Age of Sail would float your boat. There is definitely a lot of overlap in what is covered between the 2 games. Age of Sail does not have the map and town building aspects, but the battles and scope cover a wider range of years and places during the age of British colonization.
