Alexander is the second installment in our Field Commander series of solitaire strategy games. If you loved Field Commander Rommel, this is the perfect follow - up! Step into the shoes of Alexander the Great on his world - conquering mission to expand the Macedonian empire and gain personal glory. When designing the game, we aimed to depict Alexander's battles. But as we delved deeper, we realized we could explore not just his military feats but also other aspects of his life. Alexander was not only a master of warfare but also a skilled negotiator with a deep - seated drive to connect with the gods. It was rumored his father was Zeus, and he spent his life seeking divine favor and advice. In the game, you start in 338 BC, just before the battle of Chaeronea. You decide where to go, when to fight, when to negotiate, and when to seek prophecies. You'll have soldiers like Infantry, Archers, Phalanxes, and Cavalry, along with Advisors, Scholars, Courtisans, and Spies to assist you. Combine these resources with your strategies for victory and glory. If you succeed, you'll be remembered as a great leader. Alexander's life is divided into campaigns, each lasting several years. You're given goals in each campaign, and it's up to you how to achieve them. The campaigns can be played separately or as a continuous journey where one campaign's outcome affects the next. Seize the world at your will!
