Toronto – February 22, 2011 – Longbow Games today announced the release of the latest game in their Hegemony series of historical RTS wargames, Hegemony Gold: Wars of Ancient Greece. Expanding upon last year's PAX 10 finalist Hegemony: Philip of Macedon, the new release adds two new campaigns and an all new diplomacy system plus an open sandbox mode with 26 playable factions and significant gameplay upgrades and refinements. The game is available at www.LongbowGames.com at $29.99 for the complete version or for $9.99 as an upgrade from the original game.
“After spending the last year building a community and talking to fans about what they liked best in the first Hegemony, we're really excited to show off all that we've added for Hegemony Gold,” said Jim McNally, President and Lead Designer of Longbow Games. “Not only do the new features significantly expand the range and depth of the tactics in Hegemony but the new campaigns and sandbox mode exponentially increase the amount of gameplay available.”
