We are playing the mighty Greek city state of Syracuse (Syrakusai) in Hegemony 3: Clash of the Ancients with the newest DLC “The Eagle King” from Canadian indie studio Longbow Games.
Hegemony 3 is a strategy game about ancient warfare in Italy, set roughly in the 5th century BC. Centuries before Caesar, Alexander or Philip, the forested hills and rocky coasts of ancient Italy draw cultures from across the Mediterranean with promises of wealth and prosperity.
Bronze-clad hoplites from the powerful Greek city-states set sail across the Adriatic to carve out bridgeheads of Hellenic culture amongst the native Italic hill tribes, while aggressive bands of Gallic Skirmishers make the trek South across the Alps in search of fertile new land.
And along the marshy banks of the Tiber river, a small upstart city called Rome battles for independence from the established Etruscan confederacy…
The new DLC allows us take over the role of Pyrrhus of Epirus, the Eagle King, who came to the aid of the Greek city states in the south of the Italian peninsula when they felt threatened by the rapid expansion of Rome in the North. The DLC adds the island of Sicily and its powerful cities to the big “Unification of Italy” campaign and introduces a new “invasion” campaign mode, allowing us to invade Italy with handpicked armies in the style of Pyrrhus.
Will we be able to unite Sicily under the banner of Syracuse? How would we fare if we then tried to invade the Italian peninsula and challenged Rome itself? Join me and find out!
