From the beginning of man war has lived in our hearts and minds, from fighting for religious beliefs, for new territory, to spread "democracy", to downright anger, war is something all people have in common, even back before Christ there were many great wars, Greece v. Persia, Islam (?) V. Jerusalem and Egypt V. Rome (I think.)
Now to the story.
You a general, have just received news your country has gone to war (More story shall be decided after you make your character.) with a nearby tyrant territory with corrupt ways. Your King decides to send you in to draw first blood, your troops are awaiting your commmand. (I know short op story but all will be revealed once you make your character that's when we get into the advanced story.) We shall begin the campaign tomorrow.

COUNTRIES
Greece: Probably the most dominant in Naval warfare (Because of the discovery of Greek fire) Greece is a relatively small nation made up of city states, such as Athens, Sparta etc... has the most loyal soldiers, it's strategy usually consists of using Phalanxes/Hoplites to use their shields to basically out defend the enemy (Defensive minded player.) Persia: The best archers and horsemen in the game, Persia's strategies usually consist of tricking the enemy into a trap, yet if the opponent reacts accordingly to the trick the Persians do not have that many trained combatants (more for the strategic thinking player.) Egypt: With the highly trained Egyptian army you can use your experienced infantrymen to either flank or bash straight on into the opponent. Their weakness is Naval warfare (For the on foot player.) Islam: Highly religious Islam is also growing power, the advanced Islamic weapons make any fight a more favorable one, and they are also the most loyal, yet they get tired after traveling all the way up from Africa so they are quite fatigued. (not time realistic :P more for the weapon maker type player.)
