About Judy

As WP's managing editor, I edit review and preview articles, attempt to keep up with the frantic pace of Rainier's news posts, and keep our reviewers on deadline, which is akin to herding cats. When I have a moment to myself and don't have my nose in a book, I like to play action/RPG, adventure and platforming games.

David Heath, Director of Operations for Matrix Games, said “Tin Soldiers: Alexander the Great sets out to accurately portray the triumphs and trials of Alexander’s conquest of the known world in true strategic table top fashion. The new demo allows players to discover if they have what it takes to be the greatest general of all time and is available at our website for free.”

Tin Soldiers: Alexander the Great uses an innovative multi-phase turn-based system. As you play, the campaign unfolds before you with cinematic cut-scenes and three dimensional panoramas of the battlefields. Each battle is based on the historical terrain and troop placements, but the campaign allows you to make decisions in between battles on which units to reinforce, whether to recruit new units or replace commanders and how many of your resources to focus on training.

Tin Soldiers: Alexander the Great includes support for multiplayer over the internet and local network. Any of the campaign battles can be selected or players can choose one of the two special multi-player only scenarios: Bactria and Elysium.
