Hi from all at
Team-RTR. If you are a keen watcher of
Rome Total Realism you will be aware that we are well advanced with work on our latest project,
Rome Total Realism VII: Fate of Empires (FOE). We are very excited about this campaign as it will be introducing many innovative gameplay ideas that we have been working on, most of which will eventually make their way into the
RTR VII: Grand Campaign. Covering both a larger area and longer time span,
FOE has a greater scope than that of
TIC so we are not calling it a "mini-campaign": we prefer to think of it more in terms of a "midi".
This Picture of the Week article shows you some of the screen shots we have taken whilst "battle testing" the game. We hope you like them and that they whet your appetite to try the FOE campaign, when it is released.
Starting in 280 BC, our campaign will challenge you to relive or rewrite history. A tumultuous and vital period, not only for Rome but the entire western Mediterranean: Rome, Carthage, and Epeiros, under its chrarismatic ruler King Pyrrhos, clashed like titans for domininance. Will you emulate the campaigns of Hannibal Barca and Scipio Africanus, or blaze a new path through history with Pyrrhos?
Fate of Empires aims to be the perfect scene for your glorious victories, or catastrophic defeats...
FOE also introduces new complex systems of government and commerce to challenge you. What path will your fledgling empire develop along, and how will your economy fare? Many questions will be answered in our
previews, but you will have to wait for the finished campaign to see the full picture.
