Features: Witness the destruction of seven centuries of Carthaginian civilization firsthand – thrilling and heart-stirring! If Carthage had won back then, the entire history of Europe would have been rewritten! To seize control of the Western Mediterranean, Rome had to eliminate its powerful rival, Carthage. A new round of conflict broke out between the two city-states, but this time it was an extermination war. Hasdrubal, a distant relative of the great Carthaginian general Hannibal, led the Carthaginian army in its final desperate battle to defend the city. However, a beautiful woman brings disaster. To snatch away his mistress Elisa from Gisco, Hasdrubal even broke the alliance with Numidia and even surrendered to the Roman general at the last moment.
