Persia: Total War Intro (Re-Introduced)

**Faeghi** · 08-06-2005, 01:13

Greetings to the community,
There have no been many updates posted here but i can assure you that we are making alot of development through this mod, im here to re-discuss the factions and intro and many others,

Intro
This mod starts at 559B.C and ends at 490B.C the four greatest empires extend throughout the east, Lydia governing Asia Minor, Babylonia expanding through Mesopotamia, Egypt spreading across North Africa and Media conquering lands in the middle east and expanding into the west. But a new empire is about to rise.

Persia under a new keen ruller King Cyrus II of Persia has plans to defeat the Medes, destroy the Babylonians, crush the Egyptians and invade Lydia. This nation will soon become an Empire....perhaps the greatest empire the world will yet know.

But Persia isnt the only new power rising, to the far east The Magadha Empire will soon expand out of India and claim Asia as hers, whilst the nomads of the steppes, the Scythians, Massagataens will surely be a problem, as the will invade from the north swiftly. But a greater threat has been heard of in the west, the Greek City States, Athens, Sparta, Ionians. Dominate the west with a new form of warfare unlike the Asians ever predicted. Many other forces await you, will you forge the greatest empire?
