On one side of the Mediterranean sits the fledgling Roman Empire. On the other, the greatest military mind the world had ever seen. Take centre stage in the era-defining conflict between the two superpowers of the Mediterranean world. Follow Hannibal's campaign through Spain, Italy, and Africa, leading his diverse array of mercenary troops, or the formidable Roman legions tasked with stopping him.
Further east, in the ruins of the Persian Empire, two worlds collide as the Han Dynasty, with all its power and might, marches against the Bactrians in the fabled War of Heavenly Horses. Control the numerous penal recruits of the Han traversing unfamiliar deserts to engage their enemy, or take charge of the renowned Bactrian Cavalry making them fight for every oasis.
