- Customizable Campaign Army: As you progress in the campaign, unlock 16 bonus units – including Achaemenid chariots and Puru elephants – and 4 bonus technologies that can be used in future scenarios. Unleash the full might of your expanding empire.
- Visual & Audio Upgrades: Overhauled siege unit graphics heighten the immersion for which Chronicles is celebrated, while 13 new music tracks for both campaign and skirmish modes provide a thrilling soundtrack for your empire’s rise.
[h2]The Grand Campaign[/h2]
The Alexander the Great campaign is fully focused on that main character’s life. Five or six scenarios would hardly do justice to his incredible feats!
In the grand campaign, play as the Macedonians in 16 of the 18 scenarios, with the Puru and Thracians each getting one scenario which intersects with Alexander’s story from a different perspective.
Across the campaign, unlock new technologies and units – including the Puru, Thracian, Athenian, and Achaemenid unique units – and train them in future scenarios with a customizable campaign army. There are 16 bonus units and 4 bonus technologies which to acquire! Coupled with the Chronicles philosophy of unique level designs and diverse mechanics, experience a deeply varied and highly replayable campaign.
[h2]Three Legendary Civilizations [/h2]
Conquer the world with the highly-drilled Macedonian army. Use the long pikes of their Phalangite infantry to pin the enemy in place, then crush them with the mighty Companion cavalry! Build Fortified Outposts to stage lightning assaults and move your units to the frontlines faster.
Launch devastating raids with your swift Rhomphaia Warriors, and profit from them with unique technologies that generate gold from combat. A variety of bonuses and technologies turn Thracian skirmishers from neglected trash units to deadly fighters!
Unleash the elephants! The Puru, a powerful Punjab people, can call upon these extraordinary beasts to flatten their foes. Build an army that combines brute force with precise ranged support with archers who wield devastating bamboo longbows.
At its core, Chronicles remains a series dedicated to narrative and historical immersion, primarily with a single-player focus. To build upon this goal and to continue exploring additional possibilities, the Macedonians, Thracians, and Puru civilizations introduced with Chronicles: Alexander the Great will not be available in ranked gameplay.
