Legion Arena reaches alpha

Freeverse today announced that Legion Arena for the Mac has reached "alpha" status, and is on schedule to ship this Spring. Created by Slitherine Software, Legion Arena is a Role Playing Strategy game designed on a "massive" scale where players must take control of a small band of warriors and train them to be the mightiest army in the world. Players can buy equipment, choose from over 100 skills, personalize the appearance of squads, and earn experience as well as denari for victories. "Legion Arena takes the best elements of Role-Playing games and puts it in the context of an epic strategic struggle," according to Freeverse. Players can participate as either the Romans or Gauls in over 100 scenarios and with more than 20 unique units. Units include Praetorians, Elephants, and "Naked Fanatics" (pricing and system requirements were unavailable).
