Ready, Set, Go – Grepolympia Starts Today!

At first it was only a faint whisper. Here and there, people gathered to secretly discuss what they had heard elsewhere: Troops stopped fighting to prepare themselves for an event of Olympic proportions. This event will start with the beginning of the Summer Olympics in London. Step-by-step, those rumors spread all across the island realms of the Aegean Sea. Everyone whispered the same name: Grepolympia.

And today, the long wait is finally over. The rumors have come true – the games have begun! For the next four weeks, Grepolympia will be running on the ancient island worlds of Grepolis. During the event, the most excellent athletes in the world will face each other in four gripping disciplines: hoplite race, archery, javelin throwing, and chariot race. In the hoplite race for example, your athlete has to run with a shield for 12 minutes! Each discipline will be held for a week.

However, in order for you to be successful, you have to train your athletes wisely. Each competition requires a balanced training of several skills. So which skills will you focus on for each of the disciplines? The choice is all yours! Next to honor and glory, successful athletes will obtain bay leaves, which can be exchanged for several bonuses and advantages. Additionally, the most successful will also be bestowed with awards, ensuring eternal glory, and powerful Olympian rewards, massively boosting one’s troops and cities.
