Sound good so far? Well... We've only begun to scratch the surface! The tournament itself will be hosted by none-other then Titus Flavius Caesar Vespasianus Augustus, 10th Emperor of Rome! To celebrate the completion of the Colosseum in 80 AD, he's courtly invited the great empires and nations of the world to compete in a battle for the ages! With that said, only warrior-cultures from pre-80 AD (with exceptions for certain, more 'primitive' cultures that cam much, much later) will be included in the matches and story-arch.
Furthermore, there's only one more announcement to make; the match-ups! Because I know everyone will be deathly curious as to WHO exactly will be competing, I've decided to leak the matches (in no particular order!)
Sparta vs. Hawaii
Germania vs. Persia
Israel vs. Inca
Zulu vs. Gaul
Gladiators vs. Han Dynasty
New-Kingdom Egypt vs. Mauryan Dynasty
Aztec Empire vs. Carthage
Rome vs. Macedonia
That about wraps it up for now! The first round and more details will be posted within the week!
