HEXUS.gaming readers choose Imperium Romanum

Following the competition that we ran to give a name to an upcoming Roman strategy game, Kalypso Media has confirmed to us that thanks to HEXUS readers they have taken our advice and will be using the name Imperium Romanum as the name of their new game.

Approximately 80% of the votes were for this title.

From the press release:
Take the future of an empire into your hands in "Imperium Romanum", the upcoming historical strategy title from Kalyspso Media and Haemimont Games. Due for release in February 2008 the game sees the player take the role of a governor of a Roman province and strive to build a well organised, prosperous and commanding settlement.

Thanks to everyone who voted.

Winners of the first two prizes will receive their awards before Xmas, whereas everyone else waiting for the game will have to wait till the game's release date in February.
