Step into the streets and alleyways of the ancient Roman Empire, which have become rife with carnage and unrest. Gangs of brutal fighters are used as weapons to exert the will of their paymasters, known as Domini, who are ambitious heads of Roman households; as such a Dominus, you begin your story in troubled times... Gangs of Rome is a skirmish game in which you will use unique fighters, pitting them against the gangs of rival Domini in both campaign and scenario play to earn influence - enough to manipulate your way into the Senate. Then, as a Senator of Rome, you`ll be granted the power to destroy your enemies with methods far greater than the sword. So hold on to your sandals and watch your back, Dominus - things are about to get bloody!
