"The sheer volume of games we are publishing in the coming months and the desire to connect with our customers was reason enough for us to take a look at developing a completely new site," said Steve Milburn, Director of Marketing.

The Strategy First website will include a central home page that will include the most up-to-date news on all of Strategy First's products and corporate initiatives. It will feature a GAMES page that will detail the story, features and system requirements of each individual product; a DOWNLOADS page that will offer readers the latest patches, demos, trailers, wallpapers and screenshots; a COMMUNITY page that will host the game forums; and a CORPORATE page that will give readers background information on the company and its partners.

"Our web team has done a fantastic job of developing a site that is easy to navigate, quick to load and nice to look at," said Adam Phillips, Product Manager. "It does a great job of reflecting an overall company image which is what we were looking for. Although we still intend on developing our individual game-themed sites, this allows us to centralize all of our content on one main location. The launch is the first step in a continuous effort to enhance our growing gaming community and players' overall experience with Strategy First titles."

Strategy First also plans to re-launch the Disciples II website with the latest news and progress reports, as well as material for the players, such as screenshots, wallpapers and of course the "Developer Corner". Disciples II, which is the first title to be released from Strategy First's roster in 2002, will hit store shelves in late January. Fans of the original and those who are anxiously awaiting the sequel will be able to learn more about what has been going on in the development process over the past year and see some of the changes the game has undergone since its debut at last year's E3 Expo.

With a host of exciting new titles available, some of which have already won several gaming awards, Strategy First looks ahead to 2002 with great expectations. To learn more about the company and/or its products, log onto HERE or just stayed tuned and we'll bring you the latest news ourselves ;)
