FeatureMarshall your savagery, and strike primal fear into the hearts of your enemies with the Beasts of War unit pack for ROME II. Comprising seven new battlefield units, Beasts of War brings further variety to ROME II's already diverse unit roster.
Terrorise your enemies and slow their progress with beehive, scorpion and snake-pot ballistas, or crush them under the weight of heavily-armoured Cataphract Camels and Mercenary Syrian Armoured Elephants. And when their will is broken and they flee the field, run them down with two new breeds of ferocious war-dogs.

Feature 2Scorpion Pot Ballista
Can be recruited by: Pontus, Parthia
Home to the most lethal scorpions in the known world, whose sting can paralyse and kill a man within an hour, it was only a matter of time before a wily Middle Eastern general used them against his enemies. Spare a thought, then, for the Roman emperor Severus; whilst besieging the Parthian city of Hatra, his army was showered with pots of scorpions from atop the city walls. Like Trajan before him, Severus failed to breach the defences, even after two attempts.

Questions about this item

Will the 35 GB install size grow with future patches?

The download requires 35 GB of hard-drive space; any later updates will add to that footprint, so reserve extra capacity.

Which hardware limit appears first during long campaigns?

The 2 GB minimum RAM and 512 MB video memory are the tightest constraints, so extended battles will hit system memory before the CPU.

How much heat and fan noise should I expect from the GPU running all day?

The game only needs a DirectX 9.0c card with 512 MB VRAM, so even modest graphics hardware stays cool and quiet during marathon sessions.
