What is De Re Militari?
De Re Militari is our historical grand campaign. Each host begins on a real historical date, using the rulers, borders, institutions, conflicts, and limitations of that moment as its starting point. Once play begins, history is free to change.
The goal is not to reenact a timeline whose ending is already known. The historical start gives everyone a shared foundation; diplomacy, warfare, reform, succession, and player decisions determine where the world goes next.
Two Campaigns, Two Styles
Antiquity to Modernity
Our custom sibling campaign. AM follows a long-running world shaped by its own accumulated lore, cultures, states, and player history.
De Re Militari
A shorter, focused historical host. Every new host can begin in a different period, with a clean historical situation and a new set of political problems.
Neither format replaces the other. AM is for players who enjoy a continuous custom setting; De Re Militari is for players who want a recognizable historical opening and a more contained campaign.
