Worthplaying has tossed up a preview of Nemesis of the Roman Empire/Celtic Kings: The Punic Wars, just in time for the gold announcement. If you've previously fallen asleep at the mention of "The Punic Wars", this might spark your interest a little:You've seen Gladiator right? No? Are you Communist? Oh, okay. Anyhow, remember that battle where Maximus and his gladiator buddies have to face a bunch of spear chuckin' chics riding in chariots? Well, that's supposed to be a re-enactment of the Battle of Cannae fought on the Plains of Sarma. You probably didn't get to that part in high school history class, huh? Figures. Anyhow, Haemimont Games is going to let you re-enact that battle all over again, except from a little more of a hands-on approach in their upcoming game Nemesis of the Roman Empire. You might remember Haemimont Games for such games such as Celtic Kings: Rage of War or…Alice's Trip Through the Windshield Glass (Simpsons reference?). Nemesis spicks up where Kings left off. The Roman Republic is fledging still even after having taming the fearsome Gauls into the annoying French. All of that seems precursor now to the mighty southern threat of Hannibal Barca and the barbarian horde of the mighty Carthage. |
