Description

Praetorians is an epic 3D troop-based strategy game set amidst the historical battles from the campaigns of Julius Caesar. As a Roman General on a crusade to forge an empire, you will be transported back to the dusty battlefields of Egypt, the frozen lands of the Gauls, and to the heart of the Empire itself, Italy. Your quest will be no easy task as the lands you seek to conquer are heavily defended by thousands of different troops, each with special skills, individual strengths, and various war machines. You will be given the opportunity to command the forces of not only the Romans, but also the ferocious Gauls, and the religiously fanatical Egyptians. Your road to victory depends on strong strategic skills – learning to combine units and exploit the enemy’s weakness is key.

Praetorians is a solid combat game set in ancient Rome; it just does not offer anything that will conquer the RTS world
