Alexander. Hannibal. Caesar. These great men and dozens like them shaped the destiny of a continent. Mighty kings, clever generals and would-be gods made their mark on the ancient Mediterranean. Around this sea, close knit nations tested their mettle and virtue against each other in fierce combat, their cultural and political legacy now inseparable from what we understand as Western Civilization. But nothing was guaranteed. Can you change the course of history in Imperator: Rome?

Imperator: Rome is the newest grand strategy title from Paradox Development Studio. Set in the tumultuous centuries from Alexander’s Successor Empires in the East to the foundation of the Roman Empire, Imperator: Rome invites you to relive the pageantry and challenges of empire building in the classical era. Manage your population, keep an eye out for treachery, and keep faith with your gods.

Imperator: Rome’s features include:
Character Management:

A living world of characters with varying skills and traits that will change over time. They will lead your nation, govern your provinces and command your armies and fleets. We also introduce our new, more human-like character art.

Diverse Populations:
Citizens, freemen, tribesmen and slaves - each population with its own culture and religion. Whether they fill your armies, fill your coffers or fill your colonies, keep an eye on their happiness - your success depends on their satisfaction.

Battle Tactics:
Choose your approach before battle to counter the stratagems of your foes.

Military Traditions:
Each culture has a unique way of waging war. Romans and Celts have different options available to them. Unlock unique bonuses, abilities and units.

Different Government Types:
Manage the senate in a Republic, hold your court together in a monarchy, answer to the clans in a tribal system.

Barbarians and Rebellions:
Migrating barbarians may sack or settle your best land, while disloyal governors or generals can turn against you - taking their armies with them!

Trade:
Goods provide bonuses to their home province. Will you take advantage of stockpiles for local strength or trade excess goods to spread the wealth around?

Provincial Improvement:
Invest in buildings, roads and defences to make your kingdom stronger and richer.

Is Paradox finally about to make a game that might genuinely be called great? Took them long enough.

And Athens better be a democracy. A REAL democracy.

So unlike EU:Rome there are no vacant provinces, everything is filled with some shitty One Province Tribe? I wonder how expansion and migration will be handled?

I'm still trying to figure out the start date. PC Gamer mentions the glory days of Athens but PC Games News says it's 302 BC. Which one is more trustworthy?

Really cool, I just think when Paradox will release Rome Total War non retarded edition? I dream with a strategy game with proper battle mechanics like line depth, unit cohesive defensive retreat, unit cohesion, discipline, and cavalry not being retarded rolling tanks. Really wanted a game where I could reprisal Hannibal tactics and not with retarded simplistic mechanics.

Long overdue. I just fear we're in for untold number of expansions in order to make everyone that's not Rome properly playable.

Unholy union of CK2 and Rome and EUIV.
Desire to see more intensifies.
Will not buy if I will not be able to have incestous relationships and wed 12 year old daughters of important Senators
