Roma Surrectum (meaning "Rome Arises") is a complete remake of the game, both graphically and in its gameplay. Improvements include a new economic system with hundreds of new buildings, an accurate and graphically improved campaign map, massively upgraded battlefield environments with more realistic custom-built vegetation, new factions, 28 unique Roman legions, and over 500 highly detailed and more historically accurate units. LEGIO I AUGUSTA GERMANICUS Formed most likely by Julius Caesar. From 16BC to 9AD, it was stationed in Colonia Agrippinensis (Cologne, Germany). It was deprived of its noman (title-name) in 19BC. During the Civil War of 69AD, the Legion was quartered in Bonna (Bonn) in lower (north) Germania and was disbanded in 70AD when it was found to be in collusion with a rebel element. LEGIO III GALLICA Raised by Julius Caesar, the Legion served in Gaul, 48-42 BC. In 30 BC it was moved to Syria. The Legion was stationed in Moesea (Serbia-Bulgaria) 68 - 70 AD, when it returned permanently to Syria at Raphaneae (Hamath). Legion III took part in the civil war of 69 AD for Emperor Vespasian. The Legion was cashiered for sedition against Elagabalus in 218-219; but was reconstituted by Emperor Severus Alexander, circa 230, and was quartered at Danaba near Damascus. LEGIO IV MACEDONICA Raised by Julius Caesar in 48 BC it served in Spain until circa 43 AD and then moved into upper Germany. Its name would indicate early service in Macedonia (northern Greece). The Legion took part in the Civil War of 69 AD. The Legion was disbanded by Vespasian in 70 AD and replaced by Legion IV Flavia Felix. LEGIO V ALAUDAE "Larks" Formed by Julius Caesar in 52 BC from the native people of Transalpine Gaul (southern France). It served in Spain from 30 BC to circa 19 BC and afterwards on the Rhine frontier until 14 AD; when it moved into Lower Germany. The Legion was reconstituted by Marc Antony in 44 BC and was disgraced when it lost its "Eagle" in Gaul in 17 BC. The Legion took part in the Civil War of 69 AD when it supported Emperor Vitellius. The Legion was probably disbanded by Emperor Vespasian (69-79 AD) or later by Domitian (81-96 AD).
