The Glory of Rome is an accessory for the Advanced Dungeons & Dragons fantasy role-playing game.
The Glory of Rome lays out guidelines for moving the AD&D game to the Roman Empire. [1] In terms of character classes, mages and psionicists are not available, and fighters can become legionaries, gladiators, and charioteers. [1] Equipment changes as well, for example a short sword becomes a gladius in ancient Rome, and magic works differently. [1]
The Glory of Rome was designed by David Pulver, and released by TSR, Inc. [1] Editing was by Mike Breault and Thomas M. Reid, with illustrations and icons by Roger Raupp.
Rick Swan reviewed The Glory of Rome for Dragon magazine #205 (May 1994). [1] Swan praised the book for "some of the year's most literate writing and meticulous research, courtesy of ace designer David Pulver". [1] He felt that the "unstable political climate—which may be inflamed by senatorial PCs—makes Rome an ideal setting for military campaigns. The Roman gods get a cold shoulder, and the gazetteer should've been ditched in favor of a few adventure outlines; otherwise, this is the most satisfying entry in TSR's Historical Reference series."
