Ancient Wars: Sparta
Ancient Wars: Sparta is a real-time strategy game in which the player controls the Spartans, the Ancient Egyptians and the Ancient Persians. The game is divided into three separate campaigns, one for each of the three civilizations, with each campaign divided into several missions. The campaigns are independent of each other and can be played in any order. However, the missions within each campaign are linear and each mission becomes available only after the previous one is completed. Although the game focuses mainly on combat, there are also elements of economic micromanagement, since the player must gather enough resources to build up his armies to the point where they can defeat the enemy forces. In each mission, the player usually has several main objectives and often one or more secondary objectives. Secondary objectives are not necessary to complete the mission, but often reward the player with troops and/or resources for completing them.
