will gold cost 19 too?

[Skrapion]

@Bravenite4 Right now we're thinking Gold will probably be 29.99, but we're still working out the details.

Macedonia and Greece are like Canada and the US, at least back then. Same language, similar culture. I am fuzzy on the History of the region but in modern times I think that migrations of slavic peoples may have largely displaced greek populations in Macedon. Alexander was a Macedonian Greek. Everybody is right.

[Skrapion]

@UberMaKedoN It's really not worth fighting over. The problem is that the terms Greece and Macedonia have been redefined so many times that they mean different things in different contexts. The present-day Republic of Macedonia has virtually nothing in common (not even geography) with ancient Macedonia.

Ill buy it, $20 on steam. Been waiting for something like Age of Empires (Gold pack) but also elements of Total War Rome.

@CreatureGam3r Soon we'll be releasing a new game called Hegemony Gold: Wars of Ancient Greece, which includes the Philip of Macedon campaign as well as a bunch of other new features, including the ability to play as the Spartans. Check out our website for details.

Unfortunately (or perhaps, quite fortunately) the Spartans are fully armoured, so you might have to use your imagination when it comes to the oily six packs.

@NewSpartan99

a/b) By capturing cities, building roads, completing quests, and of course, mining.

c) Yes, you have to siege walled cities, and you can build catapults to help.

d) Yep. As you conquer enemy nations, you'll be able to build their unit types.

hahaha...

30% of todays FYROMians are Albanian minority.

A 15% are and feel Bulgarians.

The others are slavs and they try hard to unite their country under Alexander the Great...

LOL!
