Total War: Rome II is nominated for One to Watch – please click through to vote! www.goldenjoystick.com The year is 146BC, brilliant tactician Scipio Aemilianus is dispatched by Rome to break the three-year-long siege of Carthage, an unforgivable blight on the glory of the growing Empire. Ruthless determination and an almost suicidal amphibious assault is required, but the young consul is uncomfortably aware that the price of victory may be much higher than the senate realises.

  3. Zander25332533 says:

    I will enjoy fulfilling what Hannibal was prevented to fulfill, at least in a magnificent simulation like this…

  4. Jake4595 says:

    Using a ballista in first person view = awesome lvl 1

    Zoom into a legion unit in first person view = awesome lvl 2

    Customizable banners = awesome lvl 10

  5. FyreG says:

    watching this nearly 50 times during the days. just can’t wait :( (

  6. dcl32 says:

    That’s so weird. My friend was just saying something about wishing that Shogun 2 had a mod for amphibious assaults.

  7. MrGtasan123 says:

  8. pillok91 says:

    Both good choices imo

  9. HeadrushReaper says:

    They’ve stated it will not take much more than shogun if any more at all.

  10. Callum Scott says:

    I have waited half my life for the next Rome game! I totally agree!
    Other explorations can wait. I suggest Han Dynasty or the Byzantine Empire?!

  11. maxonline17 says:

    hope my pc can run it :(

    Please,don’t use spec more than Shogun

  12. treedude577 says:

    I have been waiting for this game, for years… I just hope they still have the brilliant strategy aspect that they had in the first and which they seemed to have missed in Empire and the likes…

  13. amoungthefree says:

    DLC in a nutshell.

    I figured they would include Korea or atleast a mongol invasion dlc (Like the original.)

  14. amoungthefree says:

    A feature in the original rome they got rid of in the newer games.

    You could click on a city bringing up its information panel and click a button that let you enter the citys battle map and just look around the map. (With abunch of civillians walking around.)

  15. amoungthefree says:

    As far as I know from my research. (And I have done none.)

    The cinematics are game engine rendered.

  16. amoungthefree says:

    Yes. Rome total war.

    The most popular total war game.

    Lets forget about that and just make a medieval 3.

  17. rlibutan5 says:

    SCIPIO away

  18. Joehand87 says:

    Yep. Scipio Amelianus. That family had a long lineage of battling Carthage!

  19. ReconSpartan1171 says:

    i find it interesting that the general who defeated Hannibal Barca in the second Punic war was Cornelius Scipio Africanus, and the Scipio they mention here was his adopted son.

  20. Gunnarr123abc says:

    No, a vast majority of it is cinematics.

  21. jazz21aa52 says:

    Like times 1 billion!

  22. robertwarrior says:

    ROME 2 total war: crash tod destop edition. How far will you go to get the game working?

  23. JustinWarhammer says:

    China, India&the Nomadic tribes north to China are all good topics to integrate. China has many dynasties, and they don’t just use massive peasants for fighting, and the vast area& minor races mean a variety of troops and navy(river VS sea). India never got united, and their races are even more complicated, so it would also be fun. Same with nomadic tribes, but this one is difficult since you can’t never defeat nomadic tribes by conquering cities, in pre-modern times it would be impossible.

  24. Omerath9 says:

    One thing that I hope CA will do is to accurately recreate, at least, the major cities of the time, such as Rome, Carthage, Alexandria or Athens, as opposed to generic cities in the campaign map. That would be awesome.

  25. zmaj54 says:

    Or they could you know expand Shogun to include those east Asian countries rather than making a whole new separate game.
