Age of Empires: The Rise of Rome
Rome wasn't built in a day..or was it?!?! This is the expansion to the first Age of Empires and is based on the Rise of the Roman Empire.
As the expansion to Ensemble Studio’s Age of Empires, Rise of Rome introduced four additional playable civilizations to add to the twelve from the original game. These were the Carthaginians, Macedonians, Palmyrans and the Romans. Along with this a new Roman-style architecture was introduced for these new civilizations. There were also minor changes to the game play such as the introduction of unit queuing and an increase to the population limit.
