This is sort of an chunky introduction to the game and the real story. After the two meet, Leonidas starts telling the story of how he became king with the help of his uncle Demeratus. The story starts with Pausanias(relative of Leonidas king of Sparta) who goes after Leonidas to help him battle the Persians. Each campaign for every nation is divided into nine missions. The game consists of three campaigns centerd on the ancient civiliztions: The Spartans, The Egyptians and The Persians. Most have to be researched before equipping them to the soldiers. There are 8 slots for customization, and a variety of weapons and shields. Before building a unit, the player must choose which items are to be equipped to that unit. Heavy infantry (hoplite, immortal, Pharaoh's guard) are heavily armored and slow, but are deadly when used as melee.Īll infantry (excluding heroes) are built either at the barracks or archery range. Medium infantry (spartiate, noble, mighty nadsez), are medium armored and are good as both ranged and melee. Light infantry (psiloi, kara warrior, nubian mercenary) are lightly armored and fast. Collected weapons have no cost when building a unit using that weapon. But the player can also steal the opponent's weapons when his warriors die and leave their equipment on the battlefield. This, however, makes each unit relatively expensive. The player has the ability to research and create weapons personally to equip his warriors with. It was developed by World Forge and has been published by Play Ten Interactive. Ancient Wars: Sparta ( Russian: Войны древности: Спарта) is a real-time strategy computer game released in April 2007.
