Originally titled Punic Wars, Nemesis of the Roman Empire is actually a follow up game to another historical RTS title from Haemimont Games titled Celtic Kings that was released in 2002 by publisher Strategy First. Nemesis takes place during the time of the Roman Empire where the Carthagians were at war with Rome and both sides are playable in the final game, along with two other sides for multiplayer, the nation of Gaul and the Iberians. The game’s single player campaigns have the Romans facing the Carthagians led by the near legendary general Hannibal (yes, that’s where The A-Team's leader John "Hannibal" Smith got his name). There is also a single player random map generator for folks who like to play games without a campaign structure.
