Map
The new map has been totally redone, using satellite data. All the campaign map textures are new, and are trying to imitate more closely reality with darker tones than the bright Roma Surrectum I map.
Other Features
The popular numbered legions are back, with their historical names, numbers and standards when those data were available. 28 in numbers, each with a first cohort, they are wearing equipment ranging from the old Iorica Hamata, to the shiny Iorica Segmentata, with numerous different kinds of helmets, scabbards and belts. Those legions are recrutable after the Marian Reforms in the area where they had historically served.
The date is no longer recorded in the standard B.C. format, but rather in the form Ab Urbe Condita, which means "from the founding of the city".
0 AUC is 753 BC, so the start date of 217 BC is 536 AUC.
Additional features are also present.
