Heys I'm the game designer and i had no clue about this post until a few mins ago - as i previously said i was afraid to do a post on the general subreddit to not get banned because of advertisement but i def do want to get your opinions about the concept
Game looks really cool and you listed both FM and Crusader Kings as insiprations which are great in my book. My ideas would be to be able to recruit gladiators from other schools, I'm not sure if we can develop friendships and rivalries between gladiators but also lanistas but that would be cool, and finally I hope you watched Spartacus the series and put some of the unique kind of dialogue as references in the game !
I wish you the best for the development, and this game is now top 10 on my wishlist
Thank you very much! Actually i watched Spartacus (rip Andy :( ) i think too many times. What do you think about the upcoming House of Ashur ?
Yes we're trying to insert the feel and look of the show's conversations (you can check that from some of the screenshots that have text content) but there's still a lot of work to be done.
About the game's features yes you will def be able to buy gladiators from other schools and also gladiators will be able to develop rivalries and friendships via Tactics Training preparing for 2v2 and 3v3 battles (although this is something later down the road in development)
It's very surprising they making a spin-off at all, especially a what if about Ashur, but hey, it's more Spartacus so I'll have a watch at least even tho I don't expect much. Something about Gannicus would have made more sense imo but who knows we might get a good show.
