About the game

What you do in a play session

Hey gamers! Ready to expand the battlefield in Lords of Hellas? The City of Steel expansion not only invites another player to the fight (bringing the total to 6!), but also beefs up the map and introduces a brand-new upgrade mechanic to power up your armies. And who's the new hero stepping into the arena? None other than Hector, the legendary warrior of Troy! Get ready to face two new monsters, the Satyr and Arachne, embark on three new quests, and of course, upgrade your armies to conquer Troy itself. This gem requires the Atlantis and Poseidon expansions, found in the Lost City pack, so keep that in mind before diving in. If you already enjoy the vibe of Lords of Hellas and want more action, more options, and an extra challenge, this expansion is for you. It adds depth without overcomplicating things, maintaining that strategic combat feel we love. Let's conquer Ancient Greece (with a dash of sci-fi mixed in) in style!
