Features: Let you witness the destruction of Carthaginian civilization in 700 years with thrilling and heart-stirring scenes! If Carthage had won the victory back then, the entire history of Europe would have been rewritten! In 264 BC, to compete for control of the Western Mediterranean, the Romans landed on Sicily under Carthaginian rule, and the Second Punic War thus began. Due to poor command by generals, Carthage suffered successive defeats, and the Roman army marched on Carthage. Hamilcar, a young Carthaginian general with high prestige in the army, accepted the dangerous mission and led the Carthaginian forces to defeat the Roman legion, maintaining an unbeaten record! Later, Hamilcar launched an expedition to Sicily to suppress the mercenary rebellion, and then went to Spain to establish a new Carthaginian city, becoming a famous general whose name made enemy forces tremble in fear.
