In any case, he needs some good ol' magic potion from Getafix in order to defeat the 'red' Romans, so be ready to catch some when Getafix comes knocking.    There are 2 types of Roman soldiers to thump: the fat legionnaires and the small centurions. Centurions are worth more points. More details about this game can be found on Mobygames.com. For fans and collectors: Find this game on video server YouTube.com or Vimeo.com.
