Irving Schwartz Appointed New General of Persian Army!

First winner of Tin Soldiers: Alexander the Great’s “Win your own army” contest!

For Immediate Release

Staten Island, NY, December 3rd, 2004 - Matrix Games (www.matrixgames.com) and Koios Works (www.koiosworks.com) are proud to announce that Mr. Irving Schwartz has won his very own Persian army consisting of fifteen of the actual miniatures that were used to create the digital Persian army in Tin Soldiers: Alexander the Great.

We at Matrix Games took some time to speak with General Schwartz about his potential upcoming plan for world domination with the new army. He has gone on record saying "This is great. Finally I'll have a set of miniatures I didn't have to paint myself!" Could this be a clue to his dastardly plan to fend off the impending Greek invasion and bid for world domination?

David Heath, Director of Operations at Matrix Games said, "While we don't condone world domination, except in our games, it is always a pleasure to give back to our customers. We will continue to work with Koios Works to bring new contests for the many hopeful generals of the world and we give them our thanks for making this one possible."

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.
