Classical Antiquity is shit, you prissy neo-faggots don't even have marshlands, cedar forests or ziggurats. Minos wasn't even a cuckold speckle in his poor dad's eye when the Ensi Lugal ruled the whole of the land. No wonder those Egypto-faggots bow to you: you are so impressive in your man-loving that they can not compare to you. Babylon strong! Assyrian pride world wide! Free Canaan!

That's been done to death. What needs to be done is a first person fighter/simulator. Participating in a phalanx, slinging rocks, being part of the cavalry engaging in flanking maneuvers. Ideally even routing the enemy and/or besieging their capitals. There isn't a single game that tries to reflect how crazy ancient warfare was without being Hollywood-tier bullshit like that Xbone launch game.

As master of magic and air it's not a bad equivalency for them to settle on, but it misses the element of furor for which he is so named. Closest analogue for Odin is the old vedic Varuna.

Nigger please. Seeing a war elephant in an RTS doesn't have nearly the same impact as seeing one from the perspective of a foot soldier. Likewise on the sea, boarding another ship or being rammed wouldn't be nearly as fucking terrifying from a top-down perspective.

What is aiming at distant targets and functional variety. If you use CoD as your basis for shooters then of course they're going to be shitty, just like the idea of playing a single man in a unit who's primary form of combat was sticking close together and letting the enemy impale themselves on your spear.

I can think of this series of games by Haemimont Games.
In the third game you can play as Republican Rome, Imperial Rome, Germania, Carthage, Iberia, Egypt, Britain and Gaul. The first games have less fractions, but you can try them too if you care about the story modes in there.

We need more pre-modern historical settings in games in general. Pretty much everything is either just medivial europe or feudal japan. That being said, the classical Mediterranean is probably the most common pre-modern history setting after those.
Mesopotamia, the Andes, Southeast Asia, and Mesoamerican shit is what's truly underrated. That being said, check out Apotheon OP. It's a metroidvania that has a grecian pottery aesthetic, pic related

Almost all of the games set in the classical antiquity are strategy titles already.

>It's a "people don't know anything about Mesoamerican political states other then the Aztec and the Maya; and think those were the only two complex state level cultures in the region" episode
Also, "Mayas", isn't correct, nor is "Mayan" (unless you are talking about a Mayan language). "Maya" is both the singular, plural, and adjective form of the term. The Maya also were never a single political state, there were many separate ones of varying size and influence, often with significant cultural and linguistic differences. I can try to go into more info on this if you want but I don't know as much about the Maya as I do about central mesoamerican cultures like the Aztec (and the Aztec aren't a unified empire in the way you probably think of one either; but it's "more" accurate at least in reference to the Aztec).
Anyways, check out Aztez, it's a CURAYZEE beat em up with light strategy elements where you play as an Aztec general right conquering cities around the lake basin that would become the core of the Aztec empire/you forming the core.
