00:00Zerxes inherited the Achaemenid Empire at a time of crisis and guided it to greatness.

00:18The fires of war led to eventual defeat and a renewed focus on economic and cultural enrichment.

00:26Zerxes arrives with two personas to reflect his life of war and coin.

00:32A warmonger and a tradesmaster.

00:37As the King of Kings persona, chaos is your comfort.

00:41Discover power in pressuring your opponents into violence.

00:47Take what you want, early and often, for rewards that compound through the ages.

00:54As the Achaemenid persona, you want total trade control.

00:58Build an empire of commerce where coin is power.

01:02And watch the economic rewards multiply over time as you outgrow and outbuild other empires

01:08to establish cultural dominance.

01:12Consider pairing Zerxes with Persia in the Antiquity Age.

01:16In the Exploration Age, Mongolia will help you continue a campaign of endless war.

01:22Or the Abbasid Civ can lead you to even more riches.

01:27Or choose a different path all your own.

01:30But whatever you build, remember to build something you believe in.
