Age Of Gladiators v2 1 1-ALiAS

RELEASE
NOTES

NOTE: Changelog.txt included in the pack

You re almost out of money. Two more days and you will no longer be
able to pay your staff or gladiators. The fight scheduled today
will draw exceptionally massive crowds, meaning the fight purse
will be bountiful and the opportunity to place a large volume of
bets will be high. One problem though: your top fighter is fatigued
from his last fight and has a nagging shoulder strain. Plus he has
a history of concussions, so it s fair to say he will not be at
full strength if you put him in the arena. But he s the best you ve
got. The rest of your gladiators are rookies yet; still working
with your trainers and far too inexperienced to send into the
crucible just yet

The next fight is a week away and poorly hyped. You cannot wait
that long

If you were of an evil disposition, you could execute your top
fighter instead and seize his life savings; with the fight purses
you have shared with him through his career, he has amassed a lot
of gold. It could keep you going for a month or two - maybe more
Something to consider

Or if you find that distasteful, you could go to the money lenders
instead. But their interest rates have been high these last few
days: 30% or more. You could finance present operations with that
but you would suffer in the longer term

So maybe you should send your top fighter into the arena. He is
bruised up and fatigued but he also is ranked 3rd overall by the
so-called experts and pundits of Leptis Magnus, the current city
you reside in. You know he is one of the best and might still have
a good chance at pulling out a win

Or he could lose his life

What do you do?
What Is It?

Age Of Gladiators is a single-player strategy/business management
sim set at the height of the bloody gladiatorial games in ancient
Rome

Hire scouts to scour the provinces for potential prospects once
you have recruited your gladiators, you will need to manage their
morale and personality while equipping them for battle in the
arenas. Recruit support staff, upgrade your stables, partake in
side missions, and manage the wealth and reputation of your
business as it grows each day

As your fighters win battles and increase in level, it will be up
to you to decide how to focus their abilities by spending attribute
and expertise points. Compete, trade, and interact with other
in-game bosses as you work your way up from the starting provinces
in Africa to the grand coliseum of Rome herself!

Features:

Gladiators are born with their own dynamically generated
attributes (strength, agility, stamina, dexterity, reflexes
intelligence, and health), weapon specialties, and personalities
It is up to you to hire scouts to locate the best prospects
available for recruitment

Manage your stable of gladiators carefully their morale, greed
injuries, fatigue, and more must be taken into account before
sending them to battle

The physicality of your gladiators will increase or decrease with
age, depending on if they are in their prime or declining

Fame system: as your gladiators gain glory from battle, they will
become more widely recognized and adored by the crowds. Win enough
battles and they may even get voted into the gladiatorial hall of
fame after they retire (or die)

Watch as your fighters climb the all-time records list for wins
kills, and fame - all held by retired and still-active legends in
the arena

As your gladiators level up, they gain points to spend on their
attributes and expertise. Expertise allows you to build and
customize your fighter according to their appropriate strengths

experience each day they are employed

republic. There are quick and underhanded ways to make money, but
your reputation and fighter s morale may suffer as a result

other messages from your fighters, staff members, and different
characters as you progress through the game

Rename your gladiators in order to increase your attachment toward
them

bookmakers in-game

match. The greater the hype, the more lucrative the fight purse and
betting market will be - but the opposition will also be tougher
