During his visit to northern Britain in 122 AD, the Roman Emperor Hadrian Augustus witnessed the consequences of the war between his armies and the savage Picts. To demonstrate Roman power, he ordered the construction of a wall to separate the Pictish tribes from the rest of Britain. The wall was grandiose in design, stretching 80 Roman miles from coast to coast. Hadrian's Wall served the Roman Empire for almost 300 years before its final decline. Today, Hadrian's Wall is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and the remains of the forts, towers and turrets can still be explored.
In Hadrian's Wall, players take on the role of a Roman general responsible for building a castle and a wall. For six years (turns), players must build their fort and wall, maintain the defences and attract civilians by building services and providing entertainment, while defending the honour of the Roman Empire against the warring Picts. The player who can accumulate the most fame, piety, valor and discipline, while avoiding scorn, will prove to the Emperor that he is the model Roman citizen and be crowned Legatus Legionis!
