Imperator Rome Announced
STOCKHOLM - May 19, in the year of our Lord 2018 -
What we think of as “western civilization” was not guaranteed.
Imagine Alexander’s empire centralized under one successor.
Italy might never have been unified under Roman rule, strangling
a juggernaut in its cradle. A world without Caesar. Now you can
explore these alternate histories in Imperator: Rome.
The masters of historical strategy have returned to the days of
legions and legends. Paradox Development Studio is happy to
announce Imperator: Rome, an upcoming grand strategy game set in
the classical world from the glory days of Athens to the
establishment of the Roman Empire four centuries later. Rule any
nation on the most detailed Paradox map ever stretching from the
Pillars of Hercules to the far reaches of of India, allowing you
to build an empire to dwarf that of Alexander. Govern republics
or monarchies, balancing the factions, and keeping the loyalty
of your most capable generals.
Imperator: Rome’s features include:
• Character Management: A living world of characters with
varying skills and traits that will change over time. They will
lead your nation, govern your provinces and command your armies
and fleets. We also introduce our new, more human-like character
art.
• Diverse Populations: Citizens, freemen, tribesmen and slaves -
each population with its own culture and religion. Whether they
fill your armies, fill your coffers or fill your colonies, keep
an eye on their happiness - your success depends on their
satisfaction.
• Battle Tactics: Choose your approach before battle to counter
the stratagems of your foes.
• Military Traditions: Each culture has a unique way of waging
war. Romans and Celts have different options available to them.
Unlock unique bonuses, abilities and units.
• Different Government Types: Manage the senate in a Republic,
hold your court together in a monarchy, answer to the clans in a
tribal system.
• Barbarians and Rebellions: Migrating barbarians may sack or
settle your best land, while disloyal governors or generals can
turn against you - taking their armies with them!
• Trade: Goods provide bonuses to their home province. Will you
take advantage of stockpiles for local strength or trade excess
goods to spread the wealth around?
• Provincial Improvement: Invest in buildings, roads and
defences to make your kingdom stronger and richer.
Imperator: Rome is scheduled for a 2019 release.
