From the creator of the original Calracia Republic, comes another RPG based in ancient Rome. This site has been recently created. The author is one of the most diligent and dedicated owner of an RPG that I've come across. His devotion to in depth, historical research ties together fantasy with the factual. 
From the site: In the year 68 CE, Imperator Tiberius Claudius Nero, most commonly known as Nero, committed suicide, and with him died the Julio-Claudian dynasty of Gaius Julius Caesar. With no clear heir to the throne many powerful Romans began to move towards becoming the next Emperor of the mighty world power. An unpopular Roman general named Galba killed many of his soldiers who rebelled against his attempts to become Emperor, and eventually took the seat near the end of that year. That is, however, only how our history books have it. The fact of the matter is, however, a man by the name of Publius Acilius Metellus, a military Tribune and a favorite amidst the army of Galba, killed his general in his sleep, and used the support of his soldiers to become the Imperator of Rome. Having been brought up from nothing, Metellus read any book he could get his hands on, and was well aware that Rome was once a Republic, and had been intended to be so as well. Upon receiving enough wealth and fame to ensure his family a good future, the Imperator Publius Acilius Metellus stepped down and did what many had talked about doing before him, he restored the Roman Republic. Thus is the story of Gloria Romana, an ancient Roman world where anything can happen, and anyone can shape the future of the world's most glorious super power. A world where the Gods were to be feared for their interventions with man, and great heroes were respected and honored. Write Comment (3 Comments) |
