Field of Glory II Legions Triumphant has been announced!
After the assassination of Julius Caesar in 44 BC, the Roman Republic found itself in mortal danger. The infighting that followed eventually saw the end of the Republic and the birth of the Principate, with Octavianus Augustus sole ruler of the newly-established Roman Empire.
Victory after victory, the Empire slowly expanded, reaching its maximum extent in 117 AD. But dominance couldn't be held forever. Internal and external threats undermined stability in the centuries that followed. To ease administration, the empire was eventually divided into western and eastern halves, each with its own emperor. Under the constant pressure of large Germanic confederations, the western half eventually collapsed, and in 476 AD the last western emperor was deposed.
In Legions Triumphant, the new exciting DLC for Field of Glory II, you can be part of the final conquests of the Roman Empire in Britain, Germany and Dacia, witnessing the Pax Romana when the legions on the frontier mostly kept at bay the barbarians to the north and first the Parthians, then the Sassanid Persians, in the east.
Relive the final disintegration of Western Roman power under pressure from the Germans and Goths (themselves attempting to outdistance the rising power of the Huns), and the desperate attempts of 5th century leaders to hold at bay the barbarian tide, using armies at least partly consisting of barbarian troops.
Legions Triumphant follows the development of the Roman Imperial Army through its heyday, its late 3rd century AD reorganisation to deal with new threats, and subsequent decline. It also follows the rise of its various enemies, the Germans and Goths, the Sassanid Persians and the dreaded Huns. Play as the Romans or as one of their many enemies.
Field of Glory II: Legions Triumphant brings you 10 new factions (Alans, Anglo-Saxons, Caledonians, Goths, Hephthalites, Huns, Palmyrans, Picts, Romano-British and Sassanid Persians); 17 new units (including Legio Comitatensis, Auxilia Palatina, Pictish Spearmen and the Fierce Hunnic Nomad Horse Archers), and 22 new Army Lists!
In addition, this expansion adds numerous improvements and changes to the campaign system, with 4 new historically-based campaigns, the ability to name your units, to fight on after a lost battle and many more!
Stay tuned for further updates!

Field of Glory II "Table Top Mod" AVAILABLE NOW!
Today we are proud to announce that the Community Content list will be enriched soon with another promising work of love, the “Tabletop Mod”!
IMPORTANT! Be sure to update the game to version 1.1.7 in order to play it properly.
The FoG II 'TT mod' ('TT' = "Tabletop") is a comprehensive mod created created by Paul Adaway for both Field of Glory II (and Immortal Fire although this is not required to use the mod). The TT mod will be made available during 10th January
Paul gives full details below but his 'magnus opus' includes approx. 80 new or modified army lists and in keeping with its miniatures based inspiration many new unit figures e.g. nearly all nations have their own specific pike phalanx, there are amended Greek cavalry, a plethora of new Spanish infantry units and one of my favourites – the Tarantine Light Javelin Horse. In all there are upwards of 140 new or modified unit textures in this mod!
For those of you would like to try this mod but are unsure about its impact on the game, rest assured that Paul has not amended the gameplay, rules or unit capabilities in anyway – its focus is on giving players a wider range of armies to choose from and units to play with
Special thanks are of course due to Paul for putting this together and then making it freely available.
We'd also like to extend special thanks to Stephen Hales (of Little Big Men Studios) for allowing the use of his miniatures shield designs in this mod. Those of you who would like to use his designs with your miniature armies should check out his website : https://www.littlebigmenstudios.com/
Notes
- Please note that you need FoG II v1.1.7 or later to use this mod.
- Although Immortal Fire isn't required to use the mod, a player who does not own Immortal Fire will not be able to set up custom battles or campaigns using army lists from the Immortal Fire period. (Including those made by Paul). However, they would be able to accept MP challenges set up by someone who does own Immortal Fire
Check here to know all the details!
Field of Glory II: Immortal Fire is OUT NOW!
Bury my body and don't build any monument. Keep my hands out so the people know the one who won the world had nothing in hand when he died – Alexander the Great
War can have many different shapes. Sometimes, the contenders have dreams of power and hegemony that collide. Sometimes subjugated people have to fight for justice and revenge against their masters. Leaders summon their brethren and subjects into a fight for motives that only a future victory will justify.
Eventually, there is a time when different civilizations can’t coexist peacefully, and different visions of the World engage a mortal fight.
What side will you take, when destiny calls?

Field of Glory II Patch v1.1.5
v1.1.5 CHANGE LIST
• In all random map battles (except advance guard and rearguard scenarios), additional sub-generals can be added during deployment (after completing force selection) to make up the total number to 4 for Medium-Very Large battles, and at least 3 for Very Small-Small battles. The addition of a general to a unit creates a new command for group movement purposes – other units can then be switched to this command if desired.
• The AI similarly adds “supernumerary” generals to its own army if the initial deployment has insufficient, but does not alter its group structure.
• Added option in settings screen to turn off Idle Animations. This just turns off the wait animations when units are not doing anything. It does not turn off movement, shooting, combat or ongoing combat animations.
• Added “Pot Luck” terrain option for Custom Battles. (SP & MP). The map type will be chosen using the map set most appropriate to the opposing nations. Where these have different home map sets, the game will use the highest priority map set in the following list (highest to lowest): Tropical, Northern Europe, Mediterranean, Middle East, Steppe, Desert. This is loosely based on the general trend of historical invasions. Where the map set permits different terrain types, Pot Luck maps will be 70% agricultural, 15% hilly, 10% wooded and 5% mountainous.
• Medium Foot “Javelinmen” now called “Irregular Foot”.
• Campaigns: Reduced compulsory garrisons and increased optional garrisons.
• Campaigns: Corrected issue where player army was given too many reinforcement points when choosing option not to pursue with advance guard.
• Fixed bug to cavalry army infantry autodeployment
