In the Imperial Campaign you command the movement of your armies and generals on a regional map comprised of Europe, northern Africa and the Middle East, managing cities, hiring spies and mercenaries and using diplomats where your military might can't reach. The game, true to the Total War series, lets you manage your empire and armies in turn-based mode. No matter which you will be choosing, your faction's ambitions will ultimately lead you to open war against the Senate and the other Roman factions. They have already set their eyes on Greece and Macedonia, the most advanced civilizations of the ancient era. And the last family, the Brutii hold the eastern part of Italy. They are facing the Carthaginian people, who are one of the prime powers in the Mediterranean. The Scipii are in control of southern Italy and Sicily. The Julii are in control of northern Italy and they are very close to the borders of Gaul lands and the remainder of Europe. You will be leading one of these families of Rome (Julii, Scipii, Brutii) for more than three centuries in an attempt to conquer most of the known world.
It is time for them to turn their eyes outward. A select group of influential families have united Italy under the Roman banner.
