New look at what promises to be the most ambitious strategy game ever conceived
Activision have released a batch of new shots of the impressive looking Rome: Total War, the ambitious realtime strategy that aims to combine accessibility with a truly epic scope.
The game, which has been in development ever since work was completed on Shogun: Total War four years ago, allows you to lead the largest armies in RTS history, which are made up of a wealth of different units, from Scythian war chariots to Hannibal"s elephants. As well as training your own troops, it"s possible to hire mercenaries while, on the non-fighting side of things, there"s more detailed diplomacy and treaty negotiations.
