Ancient Wars: Sparta is a real-time strategy video game released in April 2007. It was developed by World Forge, published by Play Ten Interactive, and distributed by Eidos Interactive.

The player has the ability to research and create weapons with which to personally equip his warriors. This, however, makes each unit relatively expensive. However, when the opponents' warriors die, they leave their equipment on the battlefield, and the player's workers can collect them. These weapons can then be used by the player to equip their own army. Collected weapons have no cost when building a unit utilising that weapon.
There are three types of infantry. Light, Medium, and Heavy. Light infantry (psiloi for the Spartans, Nubian mercenaries for the Egyptians, kara warriors for the Persians) are lightly armored and fast. They are ideal for being ranged units. Medium infantry (spartiate for Sparta, mighty nadsez for Egypt and nobles for Persia), are medium armored and are good as both ranged and melee fighters. Heavy infantry (hoplites for Sparta, Pharaoh's guard for Egypt and Immortals for Persia) are heavily armored and slow, but are deadly when used as melee.
All infantry (excluding heroes) are built either at the barracks or archery range. Before building a unit, the player must choose which items are to be equipped to that unit. There are 8 slots for customization, and a variety of weapons and shields. Most have to be researched before being equipped to the soldiers.
[edit]Campaigns

The game consists of three campaigns centered around ancient civilizations: Sparta, Egypt and Persia. Each campaign for every nation is divided into nine missions.
The Spartan campaign: The story starts with Pausanias (relative of Leonidas, king of Sparta) going after Leonidas to help him battle the Persians. After the two meet, Leonidas tells the story of how he became king with the help of his uncle Demaratus. After the story, Leonidas dies in the Battle of Thermopylae, and Pausanias takes over the battle against the Persians.
The Egyptian campaign: The leading role for this campaign is Inaros, who has had his lover taken away by a Persian leader and who sets out to retrieve her, whilst simultaneously attempting to liberate his people from the Persian Empire.
The Persian campaign: This campaign tells the story of the two sons of Darius (Xerxes and Artabuzes), who are fighting over the throne, after their father died and left Xerxes as the legitimate ruler.
