Ideas for future expansions
Posted: Wed Apr 09, 2014 2:38 pm
Hi Everyone,
I am ecstatic about the 2nd Punic war expansion. Its really going to take us to one of the most exiting periods in Roman warfare, and I can't wait to get into it. While we wait, I can't help but think about what other periods I'd like to see next.
I think it would be really great to explore the Later Roman Empire. It hasn't really been done except with Great Invasions which is getting old. Say an expansion starting with the rise of Constantine, Adrianople, Stilicho and the Frigidus river (East VS West), Aetius and Attila, and finishing off with Bellisarius and the gothic wars.
Maybe even a scenario playing as the Vandals trying to establish a kingdom in the west.
This would open up loads of new possibilities, with a change in composition of the army (Limitanei, Foederati and Palatini troops), the rise of the Catholic church, and a change in overall strategy where the empire is on the defensive.
This would really be a nice way to complete to the grand opus on Roman warfare that AJE has become.
What do you guys think?
