About Legion Arena
“Legion Arena” is a role playing strategy game created on a massive scale, providing gamers with more than just the pure taste of battle. Set during the period of the Roman Republic, players take command of a band of simple peasant warriors, and train them into a formidable fighting force. With each victorious battle, gamers can reap the rewards of fame, fortune, and experience, along with the opportunity to “level up” their units. Troops will learn hundreds of new skills through their field experience, and will progressively upgrade their abilities with each new combat situation they face. Gamers can play as the Roman Empire and Celtic Clans through over a hundred scenarios, and must use carefully calculated strategies in an attempt to crush their enemies on the front line—fighting for the pride and glory of the battlefield!
