Based on the popular 1483 Medieval board game series, 1483 Online is the flagship game in the Guild of Blades's Empires of History Gaming Network, a new series of free multi player turn based online strategy games, also including Thermopylae Online and with Pantheons Online in development. Currently 1483 ONline offers the 28 player Europe 1483 Online game, which has been the proving ground for the software game engine, and in beta testing since spring of 2006. In development currently and expected for release in early 2008 is the massive game Full World 1483 Online, which will support 95 players per ongoing game. As a network of free games, 1483 Online and other games within the network generate revenues through advertising delivered during the playing of the games, enhanced user memberships and through sales of Guild of Blades' board games and e-products.
Surpassing a 4,200 users and having reached the stage in the beta testing process where the 1483 Online software and web site has matured to become a stable gaming platform, the Guild of Blades Publishing Group has made the decision to begin accepting 3rd party advertising. Through this stage in the beta testing process advertising had been closed and limited only to a select number of advertising agencies and networks. With its impressive 94.8% male audience, gaming and historical focus, and ability to reach the younger demographics, 1483 Online and the Empires of History Gaming Network offers a unique ability for advertisers to hit those targeted audiences.
