Press Release Summary = Davison, MI. Aug 30, 07. After 15 months in beta testing the
free multi player online turn based strategy game, 1483 Online, has surpassed 4200
users and created a stable enough gaming platform and site that its owners, the
Guild of Blades Publishing Group, have decided to open the game up to accept 3rd
party advertisements.

Press Release Body = 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.
