Latin battle cries
Posted: Thu Jul 05, 2007 8:00 pm
Has anyone noticed the battle cries in Latin that Roman troops in LA shout when you issue orders to them? It's a pretty cool detail.
There are several different versions. My somewhat rusty Latin skills have only permitted me to make out a couple of them. When you click on the troops to give a command, they sometimes say, "Quod mandatum, imperator? - which means, "What orders, general?" Then when you issue the order, they sometimes say, "Ad victoriam!" - "To victory!"
However, there are other battle cries that I haven't yet made out. (I've only been playing the game for a few days.) Has anybody else?
