"World Ranking" League on Cossacks: The Art of War

LEGIONS GATHER FOR THE ART OF WAR

6 February 2002

The most comprehensive league system
in RTS history available only in Cossacks: The Art of War

Fans of the hugely successful
Cossacks: European Wars ( www.cossacks.com
) will be glad to hear that a unique “World Ranking” league system will be
included in the much anticipated add-on, “The Art of War”. Never in videogame
history, has a game provided you with a ranking system this detailed.

The “World Ranking” system will
allow Cossacks players to pit their skills against others for a chance at global
supremacy. With an intuitive multiplayer interface already built into the game,
all you need is a copy of the original and Internet access to enjoy the benefits
that Cossacks: The Art of War brings to multiplayer gaming.

“Everyone knows that the original
Cossacks: European Wars was one of the best multiplayer real-time strategy games
around.” Says Terry Malham UK President. “This league system vastly improves on
the original multiplayer experience in various ways, such as recording epic
in-game battles and the ability to join games as a spectator or a referee.”

Gamers will be most pleased to hear
about is the inclusion of Ranks and Titles… starting as an “Esquire”, victories
gained will quickly move a player up the ladder from “Baron” to “Duke” as they
strive for the coveted title of “King”.

Combined with over 35 enhancements
to the original game, Cossacks: The Art of War is a must have for armchair
generals across the World.
