Lead the might of Rome to victory with Roman armies for Hail Caesar. From disciplined Republican legions to the professional forces of the Imperial era, Roman troops offer a versatile and powerful choice for historical wargaming. Their formations, tactics, and iconic units let players experience the glory and challenges of commanding the world's greatest ancient empire.
1. What Roman periods are covered?
Hail Caesar supports Roman armies from multiple periods, including the Roman Republic (Samnite Wars, Punic Wars) and the Roman Empire (Caesar’s Gallic Wars, Imperial Rome). Each has distinct unit types, command structures, and battlefield tactics to reflect their historical evolution.
2. What types of units do Roman armies use?
Roman forces feature heavy infantry like Hastati, Principes, Triarii (Republican era) and Legionaries (Imperial era). Support units include archers, slingers, cavalry, and siege equipment. Cohesive formations and drilled movements make Roman armies highly resilient on the battlefield.
3. What makes Roman armies unique in Hail Caesar?
Roman armies excel in disciplined formations, flexible tactics, and leadership efficiency. Their ability to reform ranks, hold firm against charges, and execute coordinated attacks gives them an edge against less organized foes. Special rules often favor their staying power and coordinated fighting.
4. Are Roman armies good for beginners?
Yes. Roman armies are an excellent starting point for new players. Their solid all-around capabilities, clear tactical roles, and forgiving formations allow new commanders to learn the rules while still fielding a strong, competitive force on the table.
5. What models are available?
Warlord Games offers complete plastic and metal kits for Republican and Imperial Roman armies, including Legionaries, Praetorian Guards, Auxiliary troops, Cataphracts, and siege engines. Starter sets, command packs, and unit expansions are all available to build a full Roman force.
6. Can Romans ally with or fight against other factions?
Absolutely. Roman armies often fought against Carthaginians, Gauls, Britons, Germans, and Parthians—all of which are also supported in Hail Caesar. Players can recreate historical campaigns, forge alliances, or create what-if battles with other ancient civilizations.
7. How big should a Roman army be?
Roman armies can start small with a few maniples or cohorts and scale up to full consular armies for large battles. Starter army bundles offer a good base for beginners, while veterans often expand with extra units, cavalry, and artillery to create historically themed legions.
