About this game Smite your foes with bow and spear as you lead your mighty chariots to glorious victory. Swifter than Eagles extends Field of Glory II backwards to the dawn of “civilised” warfare, covering the period from 2500-681 BC. The first civilisations in the Near East arose during the Early Bronze Age, 3500 to 2000 BC, in what is known as the Fertile Crescent, a vast semi-circular area of agricultural land stretching from Egypt to Mesopotamia. The most important of these were the many Sumerian city states, and the Old Kingdom of Egypt ruled by kings worshipped as living gods. The Middle Bronze Age, 2000 to 1600 BC, saw mass migrations of peoples into the Near East, which saw the rise of new states such as the Mitanni, Hittites, Babylon and Assyria. Northern Egypt was overrun by the Hyksos, who ruled as the 15th Dynasty. Chariots were developed in this period as truly effective battlefield weapons. Around 1550 BC, the Hyksos were expelled from Egypt and the New Kingdom period began. Under the New Kingdom Pharaohs, Egypt adopted a more aggressive foreign policy, and carved out a foreign empire in Canaan and Syria. This placed them in direct competition with the other great international powers of the Late Bronze Age, 1600 to 1200 BC, first Mitanni, then the Hittites. Most of these great civilisations experienced a major crisis at the end of the 13th century BC; The Mycenaean and Hittite palace cultures collapsed, the Kassite Babylonian dynasty fell, the Egyptians abandoned their Asiatic empire, Ugarit and other Amorite city states were destroyed. The reasons for this crisis are not fully understood, but probably included drought and famine. Another possible factor was the migration of aggressive tribes into the region, including the enigmatic Sea Peoples. After civilisations had recovered from the Late Bronze Age collapse, the Near East was dominated by the Neo-Assyrian Empire, which crushed all opposition with extreme brutality, eventually ruling over almost the entire Fertile Crescent during the 7th century BC. Meanwhile, Egypt went into a long period of decline, which saw her conquered by a succession of different foreign powers.

Stay tuned for the full schedule!Field of Glory: Empires review - new world orderFeb 1, 2021 - Wargamer.comBLUF - Bottom Line Up Front: They nailed it. Slitherine-AGEOD's new grand strategy game Field of Glory: Empires is here, and I think it just set the standard on how challenging it was to be top dog in the days of Rome. I'm talking at least XII 'Ave's for not only producing one of the best ancient grand strategy games on the market, but because the designers have also taken the genre one step beyond. We've a lot to cover, so let's begin. Officially, Field of Glory: Empires (FOGE) is an area movement, grand strategy game where each turn represents a year and each military unit is about a legion's worth of troops, some 5,000 men. By grand strategy, I mean that you are the man in charge - Caesar, as it were - and your primary job in the game is supreme resource manager (plus). You have control over all the traditional stuff seen in such games such as agriculture, mining, trade, industry, the military, pretty much everything. To be successful, you must juggle all these commodities and more in order to pump up your military and expand your territory at the expense of other countries who decline to accept your benevolent rule. At the same time, your juggling act must also keep your people happy, prosperous and your political competition subdued. Read the rest of the story...

Focus Faction: SpartaMay 21, 2020 - Community AnnouncementsSparta starts strong, with a very powerful army, and as such should not have too much of a problem conquering a few extra regions, with Argos foremost amongst them. Athens and you are constant rivals, so war is around the corner, but it won’t happen until a few turns have passed, as a peace treaty is running. Be prudent though, as once you besiege Athens, the huge citizen garrison can make a sortie that can defeat you in the open field. Athens will want to drag out the war to amass enough gold for extra mercenaries, so don’t delay too long. Sparta has a unique regional decision which enables the kingdom to levy an average quality troop, Perioikoi. They have a nice perk, in that they cost only one manpower in upkeep. This will prove handy to fill up your battle line with something other than Helots. Beware of the Helots, they will revolt several times unless you maintain very high loyalty in Sparta itself. Custom gameplay {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/34556788/0ac69468993158a9d834dcf4452839555a8f87b5.jpg If Athens is not allied with Sparta and neither is at war with Persia, then there will be a regular check to see who has the upper hand. This considers who has the most regions, the most legacy, the biggest fleet (at start there is no supremacy, but it can change very fast). If one has supremacy over the other, then a reward will be given to the winner, and a penalty to the loser. Note that none of the rewards mean more legacy, extra ships or extra regions. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/34556788/9a5a4cfcd2b651d0fecc9fa7b70ae49f21c8cbf2.jpg You can have up to 3 Helot revolt in Sparta (Laconia region), if your loyalty is under 75. The more slaves you have, the more chance of revolt, and this probability is only slightly reduced by stationing troops. It is nevertheless a good idea to do so, as the army will rack up XP quelling the revolt. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/34556788/bfc4f4dca3806fe2801129cca9b7ed3d308eef27.jpg Sparta can receive up to five missions during the course of the game. There is no penalty in not doing them, but if you succeed, you’ll get extra legacy points and a special reward. Also note that if you fail a mission and if it is still valid, you might get it again in the future. Examples: Conquer Athens, Befriend Syracuse, Form the Peloponnesian league. Sparta has one building at its disposal in the DLC, in addition to the 10 special buildings each Hellenic nation has. Note that Sparta has no access to the Ships Houses though (Neosokoi). • Stratopedon If used right, the stratopedon is very powerful. This is a field camp, that will only function if the region has no wall. It can give 5 XP per turn to troops, up to 20 units a turn! {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/34556788/ba696cffc06c26dd95538483a9046e97110ed71a.jpg The almighty but costly Spartan Hoplite will put a drain you all your resources, including your precious manpower. It also has a ‘Money Increase Cost’ of 20%, so you won’t have many in your army. To supplement it, you can draft numerous Perioikoi (but not in Laconia...Focus Faction: AthensMay 20, 2020 - Community AnnouncementsThe best starting strategy for Athens is to be careful on the military front whilst trying to be aggressive in peaceful expansion. The city has the potential to be very strong economically, and thus militarily, thanks to mercenaries, but will be vulnerable for quite some time. This is not a nation we recommend to players who are still new to the game, as you’ll have to juggle many priorities at once, and one wrong judgement can spell doom. Athens will be in constant rivalry with Sparta, unless both are at war with Persia. As such, for a good part of the campaign, you’ll run the risk of being conquered by the Lacedemonians, and you’ll often be tempted to strike at them … just in case they were planning something foul! Custom gameplay {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/34556788/a54c946e7c64f36ef45f75b89ac81dc8c5375314.jpg If Athens is not allied with Sparta and neither is at war with Persia, then there will be a regular check to see who has the upper hand. This considers who has the most regions, the most legacy, the biggest fleet (at start there is no supremacy, but it can change very fast). If one has supremacy over the other, then a reward will be given to the winner, and a penalty to the loser. Note that none of the rewards mean more legacy, extra ships or extra regions. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/34556788/ec959fd10a1d0c172cb68a4871c424a4eb530f80.jpg Starting in 500 BCE, Regions with at least one Hellenes ethnicity in coastal Asia Minor with less than 75 loyalty and less than 60 combat power of units may revolt, if not occupied by a Hellene nation. Once one revolts, others that satisfy the conditions will do so too, once. If Athens can go to war with the occupier(s), it will do so instantly. If it can go to war, the region goes to Athens, and the city immediately receives one Armored Hoplite, 150 money, 25 manpower and 25 metal for each region in revolt. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/34556788/d7317314dcb388c5a667e0eb520137b6f35a76f3.jpg Athens will produce better ships as the nation has the ‘Shipbuilder’ trait (+1 Experience Level), the city itself has a ship house building from the start (Neosokoi) adding extra experience, and the initial shipyard will make production faster. But that’s not all, as the Neosokoi will permanently reduce the upkeep of a nearby ship by 1 or 2 gold per turn! With all these advantages, supremacy at sea will be easy to achieve provided you invest regularly in the navy. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/34556788/bfc4f4dca3806fe2801129cca9b7ed3d308eef27.jpg Athens benefits from having eight special missions at its disposal. There is no penalty in not doing them, but if you succeed, you’ll get extra legacy points and a special reward. Also note that if you fail a mission and if it is still valid, you might get it again in the future. Examples: Build an Academy for your philosophers, Form the Delian League, Rival Macedonia, etc. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/34556788/69db48457f15a82ecd4c374d2b81bff9efb24073.jpg Athens has two new custom buildings at its disposal in the DLC, in add...Focus Faction: PersiaMay 14, 2020 - Community AnnouncementsPersia will be the nation that sets the tempo of the campaign for a long time. The speed will define the strategy of all the Hellenic world, with the effects reaching as far as Italy and Rome. Persia and its ruler, Cyrus II (soon to be known as ‘The Great’), starts the campaign at war with Media and will make short work of this vast empire. The Persian army is fairly strong at start, and Cyrus is a superb leader. But of equal importance, Media will fall only a few turns after its capital falls, which can happen very rapidly, as was the case historically. Custom gameplay {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/34556788/5b2d75c7c36c5ec0b3ee70ee89e76e516d444edc.jpg During its early period of conquest, Achaemenid Persia (named after the tribe that originally revolted against Media, the Haxāmanišiya) achieved stupendous and lightning-fast success against several neighboring nations. As such, Media, Babylon, Lydia and Elam might spontaneously lose one region a turn to Persia, if they are not Glorious. In addition, Media can crumble in one go if the capital is lost! {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/34556788/d759dc35e7bd0844acf1539eb284ee99dd29089a.jpg Persia, Athens and Sparta vied for the control of Asia Minor for centuries. These three will not stay at peace for long! Persia will regularly enjoy various moderate rewards as long as Athens and Sparta have poor relations. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/34556788/67defe7341165b34a7585c75e73c9d0ac60704d2.jpg Satraps (literally 'Protectors of the Realm') are governors of the Persian provinces, with a lot of independence in how they rule. On the one hand, they will provide free troops for the King of Kings army. On the other hand, they might band together to secede if the central government is weakening. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/34556788/bfc4f4dca3806fe2801129cca9b7ed3d308eef27.jpg The Persian ruler will receive missions from time to time (9 in total). There is no penalty in not doing them, but if you succeed, you’ll get extra legacy points and a special reward. Also note that if you fail a mission and if it is still valid, you might get it again in the future. Examples: Conquer Babylon, Build the Royal Road, Return of the Jewish People, etc. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/34556788/beded1ad7d39fd51e4858d79d5b511ab3e9923b8.jpg Persia has several custom buildings at its disposal: • Chapar Khaneh A Royal Post placed at regular interval along the royal road, it slightly improves positive token chance. • Persepolis A grandiose city providing culture and legacy. • Palace of the King of Kings Impressive palace providing decadence reduction. As many Persian kings build palaces, you can have 3 of them in the Persepolis region! • Jewish District In Babylon, has a role in one of the Persia missions. Help them and you’ll get new friends. • Qanat This is a sort of underground aqueduct, using no structure slot (common to all Iranian nations). {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/34556788/190af8dce75bc4885a20ae4e14535b6822745598.jpg The Immortals are a very tough medium/heavy infantry of high effectivenes...The Rising Falcon is coming soon!
