Roma Surrectum II Presents: The Roman Legions

[tone]

Hmmmm.....strange, that.

[Gromovnik]

Awesome. How many legions will be in RS2?

[tone]

28

[Gromovnik]

28

Excellent, this should be more than enough to hold an empire of any size. +rep for the info mate.

[rory o'kane]

We WERE going to have 30, but to my great disappointment they cut two to make room for other units for other factions. ridiculous, i say! '

28 is good too! it will be a very complete Roman Empire, with a very offering choice of battle tactics!

[rory o'kane]

true, but the reason we had 35 in RS 1.6 was because we had some that were destroyed and then replaced by other before the end of the time period.

[dvk901]

True, some were destroyed...but not in the mod. And the ones we removed were levied after 100AD, which was our cutoff date, basically.
Believe me, I'm as sad as anyone else they couldn't be included, but 28 was what Augustus had, so it's a fair number and a good challenge.

[rory o'kane]

True, true. Perhaps Principate-based campaign for RS 2.5?

[SimpleCourage47]

Are there any plans some time in the future to add a couple more mod folded factions ? I was thinking of maybe the Galatians. An Asia minor Celtic campaign would be very interesting.

[Alkimachos]

Hmmm... Interesting... But, can you tell me the end date?

And

We'll see RS 2.5 (i know it's difficult to tell me now but...) with other timeframe? (examp. 100AD - ....)

[tryadelion]

would be less midnbreaking if it does

[Alkimachos]

would be less midnbreaking if it does

I totally agree with you!!!

[tryadelion]

i still can't figure why the maxentius thing...

cause the only maxentius i saw in roman history is valerius, western roman emperor in 300 ac.

[pacco]

I can show you all my roman shields together, but with protection logo... like Tone did for my vex shields. I showed you legion banners without it, but you know... noone can use it without my permission in any public mod or game.
Probably that was my mistake...

[tryadelion]

we're not that bad... the outtern world is very dangerous, but inside our RS bubble we're good..

I said it as a joke. it's not happening. hypothetically, though, I'd like to have seen it dedicated to a 27 BC to 180AD.

[Visarion]

and close ups of the general:

you did a great job with the general! those feathers look so real!

[nedo72]

Nice Roman legion pics and review. Specially about Third Servile War.

But with their armor i dont think any faction comes close to them seems like it maybe after 15 turns you would have build the Roman empire....

[rory o'kane]

You'd have to cheat to get the reforms that quickly...
