Elven Legacy Ships to Stores and Hits Digital Distribution Retailers Today

NEW YORK - April 7, 2009 - In the distance. The unmistakable dust clouds of marching armies as they approach ever closer. The time for talk is over. The time for battle is now.

Paradox Interactive today announced that Elven Legacy, the fantasy strategy PC title developed by In-Co, has shipped to stores and is available for download from US digital retailers today and will be available in Europe on Thursday.

To mark this momentous occasion Paradox Interactive is delighted to present a new trailer, showcasing battlefield action.

It will not be easy, but war never is! A determined foe will deploy in numbers. It will hold a strong force in reserve, ready to counter-attack any break in its front-line. Archers and crossbow men will be placed directly behind war-bands, for mutual protection. The bowmen will be ready to retaliate with a shower of deadly missiles, when and where you decide to attack.
Only by employing your forces together, can you hope to prevail.
