Outline
This is my first mapping project ever, and it was after watching the movie gladiator. I had an urge to play a really fun, lotr-styled (army spawning/somewhat hero based) map, on the Roman Empire, but none existed. So I took it upon myself to create just the map i was looking for. It takes place in 27 BC, and Augustus Octavianus has just been named the first Caeser of Rome. The map is based around Europe, Northern Africa, a small portion of Persia, and Western Asia. It revolves around the conquest of the Roman Empire, and the expansion of the different kingdoms/tribes at this time, with as much historical accuracy as possible, while still maintain a fun and exciting map.
