Today we go back to the cradle of civilization, the place where the story of Philip II of Macedon and his son Alexander starts, the birthplace of Greco-Roman world – Hellas.
In Imperiums: Greek Wars you had the opportunity to put on the shoes of Philip II to try to relive his legacy in your own way. As Philip often struggled so did many of you, realizing that to survive in the world of warmongering rivaling city-states, you needed both military foresight and skills alongside the unscrupulous use of your political might.
Now, over 30 years later we are again at historical crossroads. Alexander has taken the throne after the murder of his father, with it comes the responsibility for the pan-Hellenic league of states. These subjugated city-states are not ready to stand peacefully aside, this might be their last chance to regain independence and perhaps even take back territories that they lost to Philip.
So let’s take a walk through Hellas in Imperiums: Age of Alexander and if you haven't done so yet, add the DLC to your wishlist.
So, what do you think, is the path Alexander took an easier one than his father’s? When you start the DLC for the first time are you going to try your luck on the throne of Macedon, or will you prefer to try and regain independence for the Hellenic city-states? Alternatively, if you like an extreme challenge, you could try and lead the Illyrian tribes and teach a lesson in military and political guile to the young Alexander. The choice is yours :)
