Matrix
Games and Koios Works have announced a contest to promote the release of the innovative new
wargame, Tin Soldiers: Alexander the Great. One month after release, one lucky customer who
orders a copy of Tin Soldiers: Alexander the Great from the Matrix Games Online Store will
be awarded fifteen units of the actual Persian Army miniatures that were used in the
creation of the game.
Painted to museum-quality standards, these beautiful miniatures
are suited for display and tabletop play. Order within the first month after release, ending
at midnight on November 7th, and you could be the new General the Persians have been looking
for!
Tin Soldiers: Alexander the Great places you in the role of Alexander the Great
during his conquest of the known world. Guide Alexander through his grand campaign from
inheriting his father's legacy at the battle of Thebes to his conquest of Darius III and
the Persian Empire through his last great battle at the Hydaspes, in the heart of Asia
against the Indian army of King Porus.
Tin Soldiers: Alexander the Great uses an
innovative multi-phase turn-based system. As you play, the campaign unfolds before you with
cinematic cut-scenes and three dimensional panoramas of the battlefields. Each battle is
based on the historical terrain and troop placements, but the campaign allows you to make
decisions in between battles on which units to reinforce, whether to recruit new units or
replace commanders and how many of your resources to focus on training.
