Description Tyrant of Athens

In Tyrant of Athens the player becomes the ruler of a Greek city-state. The game begins in Athens, in the 5th century BC, surrounded by rival Greek cities and the hostile Persian Empire. The gameplay is similar to Hammurabi - each year the player must make decisions vital to the survival of the polis: choosing the number of troops to train, warships and merchant ships to build, food units to export/import (to support the population), even how many allies citizenship grants (though they may defect or even rebel) - all of the above causes funds to be spent from the treasury. You will also respond to attacking armies/fleets (either to counterattack or to pay tribute to them). The game lasts up to 30 turns, but can end earlier if you suffer disasters and defeats.
