Salve Patricians, Plebians, and Barbarians alike,
With this article i'm hoping to see what you the people can bring to the table, what you'll be wanting to see out of all this and ways to improve overall game play experiences! Alternatively any thoughts, questions, and concerns we can help settle for you as well would be most appreciative!
Some costum quest would be nice. Perhaps it could be about convincing the senators to join your patronate's cause. E.g.:If you serve Antonius, you could do favours to Octavian's senators to abandon him for Antony, or make Octavian appear a weak leader by temporarily supporting Sextus Pompeius on his raids against the grain trade routes, or vice-versa; convice Antoius' followers to abandon him and join Octavian, as he is a true roman, while Antonius shares his bed with a foreign "*****" - so some kind of propaganda-quest would be nice. As I assume there will be more factions than the romans, a kind of client-recruiting would be cool. For example: when you are neutral, or serve Dieotaros, king of Galatia, you can levy simple gallic warriors, but when playing in the bonds of the Antony-team, you can recruit auxiliary cavalry, or sth like that, either for FREE (but that would deteriorate the relation with the village's owner.
Oh and of course numbered legions would be nice (sth like a script that eg. only allows legio III troops and gallic aux.cavalry to Octavian, legio II troops and illyrian cav to Agrippa, legio VIII troops and hispanian cav to Calenus, legio XIV and armenian cav to Antonius, etc etc) I think you got what I mean :)
Sorry for the long comment, but this is one of the most interesting period of history for me...
The issue is were running this as a multiplayer only nod. More of a hop on the servers and events to fight in team based battles.
lol should have read the description :D sorry, pls delete the comment, and this one as well :)
Haha you're fine, don't know for sure I'd you don't ask right, regardless I appreciate your comment so other people won't jump to the same conclusion.
Auxiliaries or mercs from around the known world at the time!
You'll be seeing more of them than standard legionaries. We want to cater to the whole antiquity community, not just the Roman side of things.
