Carthago Port – The port of Carthago was a real marvel of the ancient world. A crossroads in history: a time of threat – and of opportunity. Syracuse – Master & Inventor The ingenuity and expertise of our leader, Dionysius, is apparent in many aspects of our lives. His vision for Rome is grand indeed, but can it survive the designs of the young republic’s neighbours? The year is 399 BC, and Rome is poised for greatness. It was enormous in terms of size and fitting for the people who ruled the Mediterranean trade for centuries. Venetic Stables – The Veneti were the horse masters of ancient Italy. Taras – Legendary Leader Our leader is Archytas, a ruler influenced by the teachings of Pythagoras. Now, he has invented a device to hurl projectiles over great distances. The breed coming from their lands had excellent qualities for chariot racing and was valuable trade commodity. Nuraghes – Unique tower structures of the ancient Sardinian civilization. This miracle device is called a ‘catapult’. NEW BUILDINGS Euryalus – Literally translated as “Halo”. The tyrannical Dionysius rules Syracuse with an iron fist. Rome’s meteoric rise is cause for concern, to be sure – perhaps an intervention is merited? And many more... However, its very existence balances on a knife-edge. Ambitious and fierce, they are but a javelin-throw from the nascent republic. Nuraghes are impressive Neolithic structures that had numerous functions in the Nuragic society. A time for the republic to rise. A major wall constructed around Syracuse by the tyrant Dionysius. The Gallic Senones tribe, led by chieftain Brennus, are newly settled in eastern Italy. Under the guiding hand of the great philosopher-statesman Archytas, Taras in southern Italy is reaching the zenith of its glory and power. He has a reputation for virtue and efficacy, making him – in the eyes of some if not all – Plato’s model philosopher-king. NEW TECHNOLOGIES Rome – The Legend of Cincinnatus Lucius Quinctius Cincinnatus is one of the brightest names in the short history of the Republic. Within fifteen days, Cincinnatus had assembled an army, marched against the enemy, defeated them, triumphed, laid down his office and returned to his plough - this is the conduct of a true Roman!
