Will Hero of Alexandria the inventor of STEAM engine be featured in Rome 2?

[Cvetko]

Hey guess whoos back

Did you know that the inventor of the first steam powered engine was Hero of Ptolemaic Alexandria? IMO it would be a great opportunity for our dear developers to implement him somehow, although the steam machine of his was never mass produced, it could have been;
Maybe giving the player an opportunitty to make HELLENIC INDUSTRIAL REVOLUTION

What do you think?

Will you say "no, that's too complicated for a casual gamer and doesent pay off"??

You also said dear bros, that there will be no Pontos in-game, that we can dream on about realistic Parthia, that we can dream on about Hellenic factions, but you were wrong, sorry, so keep it civil please

If we gonna se Seleucids, Baktrians, Armenia and Parthians having battlefield banners in battle of Carrhae, it's just destiny, Rome 2 is an epic win for all of us, CA and fans alike, so make sure u preorder

Speaking of the Hero of Alexandria here's more information:

I heard you will only be able to run Rome 2 on Steam, so things look promising...

[Cvetko]

Missed you!!11111!!11


On topic : Only if that means i get to use a fair share of Nubian slaves to shovel the coal,or in the worst case,work on hemp plantations.

There's no way they would implement steampunk in a game about the classic age, but I must say I would like to see a mod about it, once the game will be released and people will have understood how to mod it.

[Cvetko]

Why no? IMO it would be a perfect expansion, and even historically backed... As you make history from some certain point, no?

[Seanakk]

Bit of an unbalanced poll.

Hellenic Industrial Revolution eh?



Steam Power ftw.

Yeah..! Imagine ships with no slaves, but only spartans loading coal, being black and badass looging because of it and shouting!

And then parthians having steam powered elephants.

I literally have no gif to respond to that.

Or, more terrifyingly:

OH YEAH! Tactical elephant-train ramming! That will send those legionaires flying sky high!

[Tim_Ward]

He'll be a special character you can recruit into your armies, where he will devastate your enemies with his steam-based special abilities and buffs. Pre-order bonus.

Brilliant!

Build a Steam powered Tank? Any mother would have done the same!
