How's the Gaius Marius one going?

Sorry for asking (lol) but I heard something a while back in some obscure post mentioning a new FRRE mod covering the civil war between the Optimates and Populares. Is this unbased rumor or is it true? If the latter, I am very excited! The Marian period has always interested me.

It is quite correct. Only my involvement in other projects has delayed the "First Man in Rome" mod, starting with a campaign focused in Marius.

After the release of the FRRE CD, provided that I end Res Gestae and my part in 300 WOS, I expect to start the project.

and I'll be there to test it.

Just giving a little help to a friend.

**Antiochos VII Sidetes** · August 10, 2008, 01:32 PM

Well, good to know it exists. I will look forward to this one.

How many more mods are you guys planning? I'm dying for someone to make an Augustan era one (I've been reading I, Claudius

)... or one during Trajan's reign.

the initial scope of the FRRE project included mods from MArius fighting the Teutones to Marcus Aurellius campaings in Germania.....

What is the "300 WOS"?

same here.
Hail Caesar Marcus Aurelius!

And while we are at it, could the modding team add Maximus Decimus Meridius as a general, at Marcus Aurelius' time?

That was such a great movie. There hasn't been a movie about Romans since.

"300 Warlords of Sparta"

There was in 2002. "Julius Caesar: His Time is Now"

Well, he's already in the game actually..in a way. If you examine the strat map roman general skins, you'll find that they have Russel Crowe's face.

No joke, it's true!

guys, any mod beyond Marius/Sulla is wayyy beyond our reach. in fact I will be surprised if we finish Marius/Sulla before December.

My patience is infinite. No worries.
