Grandis Punicus - Mobile game roster suggestions - Zeno - 08-27-2013 Intro:[spoiler]Currently, I'm on the path to becoming a game developer (I've developed some in the past using a rather watered-down C++ based language, so I'm fairly acquainted with the game development process) and as it stands, I do have aspirations to create a game based on the Punic Wars (honestly, my favorite part of ancient history). [/spoiler] As it stands I am developing a Game Design Document (and in my spare time drawing little sketches and sprites of characters) for such a game. Basically, it is a game similar to Zenonia (top-down, action-adventure gameplay, some RPG elements) with Streetfighter-esque button inputs to activate skills, and Dynasty Warriors 7/8 style game flow, which is, rather than a focus on individual characters, a focus on the overall story. It will include fictional/what-if scenarios (similar to Dynasty Warriors 4 and 8). As expected, the game is quite romanticized (I think the most farfetched thing so far is Maharbal using a crank-operated chainsaw) so some characters are a bit of a stretch, but so far here is the roster of PLAYABLE characters: For the Carthaginian Story: [spoiler]
And for the Roman side: [spoiler]
Other characters (unplayable, but unique appearance; generic moveset) - [spoiler]
[spoiler]*Not actually sure if these are the descendants of Gisco, some sources distinguish Hannibal, and Hannibal, son of Gisco/Gesco/Giscoe and others don't.[/spoiler] I imagine that there's tons of additional Roman consuls/generals that could be added, but I'm honestly not amazingly familiar with the Roman army during this time. And yes, I had to add Archimedes, I plan to go all out with a what-if scenario where he -wasn't- killed Anyways, if you would please try answering using this format: [spoiler] Is the game too romanticized, or not enough? Roster suggestions (additions, removals, edits) - If you choose to make an addition, please list the battles they were involved in, and if possible their position/contribution in the battle Weapon suggestions (to throw in a pool and to be assigned to any additional playable characters) What you'd like to see as a what-if scenario [/spoiler] Also, I would -greatly- appreciate if someone would help me figure out exactly who was in what battle, etc... I've been doing this on my own thus far but I don't want to miss anyone |
