The Romans must conquer the Etruscan League, their foes to the north. At the beginning of the single-player campaign, in the year 272 B.C., just about any region can become an empire. A short tutorial shows how the Romans took on the hill tribe of the Samnites. Your aim is to build the Roman empire, city by city, region by region, from Britannia to the edge of India.
In this combination of Civilization-style military strategy and real-time combat akin to Age of Empires, you begin as a humble tribe in control of a single province of Italy. After all, now that I’ve played, I no longer feel the need to pillage my neighbor’s house or the rest of the world.
Like the first Rome game, which sold very well, this title has the potential to break into the mainstream if only to bring out the conqueror in all of us.
