Description

A wise man once said all roads lead to Rome. He didn’t know how right he was.

Ripped away from the battlefield, Tiberius and his six thousand Roman Legionnaires unexpectedly find themselves stranded in a foreign land of magic and witchcraft. With no way home, their path forward is obvious: conquer everything in sight.

Much to the chagrin of Marcus—the poor, unsuspecting bard who summoned them.

But taking over the world is not so easy. In order to stake their claim, the Legion will need to learn how to navigate the strange magics and abilities this new world has granted them. Abilities which, upon closer inspection, may prove the seed for a legend in the making…

The dawn of a new empire looms on the horizon. Rome will rise anew as they seize cities, battle armies, and expand their territory across this strange and fantastical world. All the while, Marcus will need to figure out how to mitigate the force of nature he's unleashed upon his woefully unprepared world. That, or simply enjoy the front row seat to an epic in the making. Someone will need to tell the story, and who better aside from him?

The die has been cast. The aqueducts are being built. And Rome will once more see glory.

The story is off to a promising start!So far I see a lot of attention to detail regarding the organisation of an actual roman legion. Probably some liberties have been taken but that's fair enough.Looking forward to seeing them bring civilization to all these uncultured isekai barbarians 🤣.Roma invicta!

Well written and thought provoking. It takes a new spin on a story.
Hope the story keeps on growing and it takes several more books to finish given the possibilities and potential. This story will grab your attention. It also raises the ultimate question….how often do you think about the Roman Empire?

Love the start and the flow so far! Glad to see a story where a roman legion is involved. I've always wondered how that might work. Really like the idea so far, so job well done author! I will edit this review at a later dare as chapters keep being posted, and the story evolves.

The characters really feel like they came from Rome, misogyny, racism and all. They scoff at the "barbarians" deficiencies, and embrace their conquered peoples' strengths.
Tactics and equipment is very well done, as are the characters opinions on them.
Fights are very well done; capturing both the epic feeling of army level actions, and the more personal feeling of individual badasses.
If you are a Romaboo, you will likely enjoy reading this very much.

I dreamt of it, finally we got it, a Roman Legion Isekai in a D&D setting.
OK, maybe I'm not the most impartial on this topic :-) but the roman perspective is well worked. this is "real roman" trying to understand where they are (and conquer everyone)
On the other side, our classic D&D character suddenly face a true roman Legion ... a true tale of humility
Please enjoy

Really good start and good world building. Fun story to chill out and chuckle at the absurdity.
It's very well written and didn't stumble over any grammar mistakes or nonsensical sentences.
If you want to just read something on the go or on holiday that sweetens your mood and pulls you in then give it a go.
I look forward to seeing where this is going and getting more invested in the story.
Glory to Rome

This story has actual dialog and character development. Also there are tactics involved and more independent and realistic battle scenes.The author hasn't gone the way of making the characters so over powered that your told a 100 attacks happen in a single second.Still in the infancy of this story but looking forward to what is to come

A unique concept change, at least for myself, progression so far at chapter 39 feels smooth, generally quite engaging even at slower points and there were several sections that pulled at my emotions as well and really got me invested.well done word smith, may the story continue to flow and let all know the glory of Rome!

There's a lot of potential here for the future.So far it seems written pretty well, with good characterisation, and good research done about Roman tactics.It makes me want to keep going, to see how much further they get and if the Romans can build up an army and train them similar to them, as one legion wouldn't be enough to conquer a kingdom.

First chapter had me hooked, second chapter had me come write a review solely for the chapter title.I'll make an advanced review when I've finished actually reading the story but so far this deserves the praise I'm giving it of 5 *.Gloria Por Roma!So I've got to make this at least 50 words long.The first spear leading his legion after immediately taking out any threats is so well done, most people don't realize how well trained the roman chain of command truly was and this was an excellent intro.
