We're expanding Kalypso's Media catalogue with the release of the RTS game that was a breath of fresh air in PC strategies back when it was released.
[url=http://www.gog.com/en/gamecard/praetorians]Praetorians is a real-time strategy game, set in the times of Julius Caesar's campaigns against various barbarian tribes. Unlike many strategy games, gathering resources and building units is limited to a minimum, to put the emphasis of the gameplay on actual combat. The game was highly praised for its strategic depth. While each empire doesn't have dozens of unit types to choose from, the different formations and abilities at their disposal more than make up for this. You can use the terrain to your advantage, like charging downhill or setting up ambushes in forests. In a game like Praetorians, your tactical acumen is worth more than just a zerg rush.
