Yes, from the perspective of what they bring to Roman society, culture, magic, religion and mythology. But there are no discrete sections specifically focused on the Etruscans themselves, save for an overview of the Etruscan kings of Rome.

Page count, and the fact that most of what we know about the Etruscans only comes from archaeological finds or Roman literary sources anyway, makes it difficult to give them space of their own.

Sorry!

A few questions here.
Will the book cover the enemies of Rome if one ones to play a Celtic rebel or such.
2) And will there be a section for a fantasy Rome for those who wish to have magic?

This looks cool. I love anything dealing with the Roman Empire in its varying stages. I like alternate histories based upon the Roman Empire and its influences.

I guess this isn't for you then. As it is for the Roman Republic.

Neither of which can be agreed upon. History is so much fun.

I wonder if we have stats for African Elephants in the book. I'd assume the Punic Wars will be covered.

Oh, BTW, Jason's old Pax Romana stuff is still available for downloading. Its not the full supplment, but is good for a BRP Rome fix.

I do remember the African Forest elephant( now extinct unfortunately) was smaller then the Indian Elephant .
But if there Elephants then can I use flaming pigs. You are a real history buff if you know what I'm talking about.
