Acropolis mod for

'Acropolis' is a fully-fledged multiplayer total conversion for the Source Engine.

The mod is based at around 500BC, during the Greco-Persian war era where Prince Xerxes invaded Greece.

Join the ranks of the loyal Spartans - The elite of the elite, you have been chosen to fight by Leonidas' side in a counter attack to stop the Persians where they stand in their efforts to overtake Greece, Or join King Xerxes' army of the damned - The Immortals. You and your fellow soldiers were once men, but are now tormented, disfigured and horrific beings. Xerxes has promised you and your fellow men everlasting life if you conquer Greece on your Crusade of the disturbed.

The Mod will have the following features -

- Strong horror themes throughout.
Fight the Persian army consisting of horrendously disfigured mutants and disturbingly mutilated beings, whos very sounds and movements make your skin crawl.
Go to battle against the mighty Spartans, trained to kill from birth. War drums fill the air, joined with aggresive war chants and a progressing phalanx formation on your position.
- Formations. Use your communication skills to form a Phalanx to squewer charging enemies where they stand, or quickly huddle together and raise your shields to block yourself and fellow Spartans from ranged attack.
- Optimize your combat style. View whilst wearing a helmet is restrictive, so it's down to you whether you want to take it off. If you take it off, bear in mind you are a lot less protected. It's down to you whether to choose field of view or combat safety. The same applies for things such as shields, drop it and you run faster, but you are a lot more susceptible to attacks.
- Gritty and realistic combat. If you're stabbed in the face with a Spartan's sword, you're not going to have much face left - and that's what this mod is going to be like. We are having brutal and realistic combat. Decapitations and limb loss will play a major part in game play.

The mod is shaping up nicely and exactly how we want it to.
