PRODUCT DESCRIPTIONS:

Ancient Wars: Sparta is based on the history of the ancient ages and
their main nations. Spartans, Persians and Egyptians are fighting for
influence around Asia Minor, Europe and North Africa. Following
historical events, the action takes place with different campaigns for all
three races. Sparta represents 3D strategy in real time with the newly
developed “Ancient Wars Engine” (AWE), where the player will have to
use each nation’s powers to be superior over other competitors and
build up a dominant culture and civilisation.
The main emphasis is on large-scaled battles and complex tactical
manoeuvres. Players can strategically equip soldiers with weapons of
choice. Warriors can be equipped with weapons and shields, can be put
on horses or on chariots and be given special abilities. The player can
collect abandoned weapons after battles or import powerful weapons
from other cultures to build special units. Fire, Wind etc. will effect the
whole environment. Cities can be upgraded and turned to fortresses,
workers gather resources to ensure a safe economy. Ancient Wars:
Sparta offers RTS fans all their favourite gameplay with a vast variety of
new features and innovative options.
