Now where was I? stop giggling missus… hold on i’ve got it! yes! the Prologue!

Two towns in northern Italy, Ariminum and Arretium have been in our families control for ages. But I feel we, the Julii, are destined for greater things. And in particular myself, Flavius, the leader of the Julii. Certainly more than those pseudo Romans the Scipii and Brutii.

The Senate are also ambitious and want to play the three factions off to gain their own power. Clearly diplomacy would be civilised… but warfare is so much simpler.

My technical types have suggested documenting the campaign to reveal my strategic genius when I succeed. And if I don’t it’s likely to be used in the war crimes trial. Victory it is then.
