Rome is known for its Legions, its Roads, and its Gladiators. All of which are land and land combat related. But, beginning during the Punic wars and extending after, Rome held such tight control of the Mediterranean Sea that they called it "Mare Nostrum", or "Our Sea".
This Mod takes that into account by giving Rome some of the abilities traditionally reserved for Norse Civilizations such as faster naval movement, early ocean navigation, coastal raiding abilities, and the ability to heal in neutral territory. Additionally, Mare Nostrum removes the embarkation cost from land units as evidenced by the Roman Legion's ability to sail, land, fight (at least defend
), and get back on the ships while chasing Hannibal up from Iberia.
