    Incredible game, way ahead of it's time. I remember getting handed a 3 1/2 inch floppy disc from my friend in middle school and falling absolutely in love with this game. One day the files got corrupted somehow and I was horrified. I never forgot the game. I search for it every few years. Just tonight I typed "old dos game roman army" and finally found it. I am so happy.

    Gaul, Britannia, Sarmatia - 80
    Italia, Germania - 75
    Aegyptus - 70
    Syria - 60
    Alps, Sicilia, Armenia - 55
    Cilicia, Hispania, Sardinia, Narbonesis - 50
    Mesopotamia - 45
    Pontus, Asia, Cyrenaica - 40

    the big trick in the game is to lose 5 times in the chariot races. then your odds will be 5:1 after that you just print 500 talents every other turn. can build massive fleets, fully upgraded armies, etc.

    Oh i played this game a lot when i was a teenager, but i didn't know, that during the battle i can command the troops where to go lol
    The funny facts of this game:
    - the generals dont do any damage at all
    - Dalmatia province is the only one, you can be acquired without fight by negotiations only
    - the best tactic during battles is to stand fast, because when the enemy troops get close, u start to damage them while they are still marching towards you, but during this few seconds many times they start to retreat even before they could damage you. And you can click on melee when most or all of their troops are fighting, so the same will not happen to any of your troops
    - Parthia is using cavalry troops only, so first time when u invade them, u always loose, even though u have consular army already (6000 infantry, 600 cavalry), so against them u need to attack twice always
    - when u run chariot race, you need to get as fast as possible to the right side of the track and once u are there, u can press full throttle during the whole race and u can loose only, if one of your enemies manage to break your chariot
