If you're familiar with Qvadriga, you know why this is exciting. Qvadriga was the excellent ancient Roman chariot racing strategy game, hard on the eyes but offering surprisingly nuanced tactics, and Mare Nostrvm looks like it offers a much expanded evolution of Qvadriga's systems. Except here, it trades cutthroat chariot racing for cutthroat naval skirmishes, complete with wind and rain, commanders and squadrons, fatigue and boarding, and more.

$19.99, PC

Mare Nostrvm is a strategy game by the developer of Qvadriga, and it is set during the turbulent war galleys era, when the civlizations along the Mediterranean Sea started to extend their ambitions towards new lands.

Naval Squadrons employ real tactics of that time, and the WEGO system will force you to think three moves ahead of your opponent!

Choose between fourteen ship types, ranging from the small and primitive penteconter to the powerful decares, and wage war in 24 historic naval battles!

Ram enemy ships, board them, or make use of your on-board harpax to make their encounter with Neptune the last!

Looks up my alley!

I always thought early Roman Naval Warfare was kinda funny

"What if we just...have ground combat on the boat..."
