Phalanx takes place in an alternate universe. The world is at war and people have taken sides. Heroes of the lands rally to the cause of their homes and mercenaries provide their services to the highest bidder. These forces fight in championship battles against the most formidable teams of mercenaries, heroes and champions an opposing nation can field. The rights to contested resources and territories are decided by the champions of each land in these battles.

Players can choose from various arsenals, sets of special abilities, and armor types in order to create a character they want to play. Each character choice comes with inherent strengths and weaknesses that must be taken into account. Teams of player will need to work together to minimize any weaknesses and capitalize on their strengths.

The fast paced combat requires both clever teamwork and individual skill. Certain weaponry is more effective against certain armor, and specific defense modules are designed to counter certain types of attacks. Combine this gear with devastating and awe-inspiring special abilities and you have complex and furious combat like never before. High speed objective based game play puts the final touch on the combat in Phalanx and ensures a constantly engaging and challenging gaming experience.

Phalanx is being designed using the Source engine with the eventual goal to move to the Unreal 3 engine upon the release of Unreal Tournament 2007.

The Phalanx Team is proud to announce Phalanx, a new mod for Unreal 2007. We have been in development for some time now and wanted to share our game with you all. Phalanx is focused on providing non-stop action with a chaotic and fun gaming experience. That is not to say there won’t be a complex and deep system for those who are looking to master the game. Phalanx features a huge arsenal, various armor types, and unique abilities. Phalanx is a combination of all out gun battles and tactically rich gameplay.

Players will take on the role of elite Phalanx units fighting for control of territory and resources for their chosen nation. Players will wear powered armor ranging from lumbering and invincible tank armor to the quick and agile stealth suit. Available weapons will depend on the armor chosen and available abilities will depend on the character chosen.

Phalanx combines the fantasy future of our alternate universe with a stylized interpretation of ancient Greek aesthetics. Various factions have their own further personal styles as well. Legendary characters are even more unique and wield unique weapons and customized armor. Players can choose to join the militaristic Citadel Faction, the battle hardened Fortress Faction, or the ferocious Dark Talon Faction.
