Hail, Commanders!
I'm posting this to announce a brand-new feature that will completely change how you browse, discover, and select your next game: the Interactive Scenario Map!
Have you ever wondered exactly where Hannibal clashed with the Roman legions, or where Caesar built his legendary siegeworks? We have geolocated over 600 scenarios and plotted them onto a dynamic, real-world map to give you a true geographical perspective of the ancient world.
Here is what you can expect from this massive new update:
- Epic Roman Banners: No boring standard map pins here! Every battlefield is proudly marked with a custom, immersive red vexillum bearing the golden SPQR.
- Smart & Dynamic Navigation: The map automatically adapts to what you are looking at. Browsing the main page? You’ll see the entire ancient world. Diving into a specific region or campaign category (like Gaul or Greece)? The map instantly filters and zooms to show only the relevant battles for that area.
- Historical Hotspots (Clustering): History often repeats itself! If multiple battles or alternate scenarios took place in the exact same location, the map neatly groups them together. Just click the Roman banner to open a scrollable list of all the scenarios fought on that ground, complete with direct links to their details.
- A Massive Visual Database: With hundreds of scenarios already plotted, it’s the perfect tool for players looking to play geographically linked campaigns or simply wanting to explore the history behind the hexes.
I've built this feature to make finding your next tabletop battle more immersive and historically grounded than ever before.
