----Intro------
This is my submission for the cinematic contest. There is one aspect which may need fixing and I am curious to see if you guys notice and complain about it. There is still time to fix it before the contest deadline, however. To see screen shots and a thread in the Design Forums click aom.heavengames.com/cgi-bin/fo...
----Story----
A Trip to the Colosseum
"Hear ye, hear ye", calls the town crier as the citizens of Umbria gather around the announcing podium. "In celebration of this cinematic contest, Emperor Arkantos has sponsored games. In the splendid city of Rome her citizens have built a wonder not matched throughout the ages. Come, together we shall visit this marvel and witness the grand spectacle".
And so a group of Umbrians pack into transports and make the journey to the city of Rome where they see combat feats of titan proportions!
Combat Program
I Hades' heroes versus evil mythical creatures
II King Nefarious' Royal Migdol Formation Riding Team
III Recreation of the second fall of Carthage (okay, with a twist)

that "fine show of horsemanship" is the most impressive thing I've ever seen. And all in one take too!

[@SpaceOutIaw]

Well... that escalated quickly.

[@GrandMoffTarkinsTeaDispenser]

Scipio Africanus won at Zama when his nordic mercenary dragons attacked the flanks of Hannibal's veterans.

[@adolfemmanuelesparas3922]

Good one mate haha

[@markellospatras3039]

LOL PERSEUS TOOK ALL THE KILLS, MADE THEM LOOK LINE NOOBS.

[@Acidic-ue2ml]

Pwnd 'em. Also, why does the statue of Oranos stand in Rome?! Arkantos was a god of Titan-fighting (read - enslaving).

[@maestrulgamer9695]

@@Acidic-ue2ml-God of titan fighting,but in the game he didn't fight any titan.Lol

[@EmilicoYamigos]

to think, that the inside of the colosseum was hand-crafted by himself, shaping terrain and building it from scratch with walls and smaller props.

[@AlejoConejo-vb8ln]

Lmao when Gaia showed up I lost it 😂😂😂. I thought Kronos and Cerberus would show up as well and meteorites would rain 😂

[@idontlikerome2744]

Damn Arkantos married Athena?! Great vid btw

[@oni741]

Yukio Shinmon Oh.... Pegasus Seiya could be jealous of it! ;-)

[@Acidic-ue2ml]

Well, that was one of the best AoM cinematics I have ever seen. Seriously, that's an amazing work.

[@markellospatras3039]

lol Arkandos took the Titans themselves to participate his show

[@tijnvanveen9245]

Damn, Emperor Arkantos can put up a big show! Very nice cinematic, great job.

[@frozenwinterwinds]

6:50 we who are about to die, salute you!

[@giovanyzegarra1452]

This person put more time in the cutscenes than the devs who made the Chinese empire DLC

[@kevinh.a442]

How did you even learn to use the editor like this?

[@Thanos-hp1mw]

That was FANTASTIC!!!

[@oni741]

For once, I agree with you Joker. *You killed my parents* BTW xD

[@Aryan.N]

I absolutely loved every second of this video! 4:55 was my favourite part. It's brilliant👏👏👏 but I gotta say, the ending was unexpected!! Prometheus enters the the arena :D

[@jozinek876]

I love how every act got better and better ;).

[@TheSteelcry]

Wow that Colosseum you built!! Amazing. Thanks

[@blaster915]

[@albertigno1129]

[@Rena-wp8tb]

[@Eurotool]

[@shiro_the_trap2513]

[@PartyQuest]

[@eshlost5604]

[@alexlagunes6540]

[@mrgreen027]

[@louichelecool6895]

[@RunFool]

[@oni741]

Arkantos looks like Commodus in the film Gladiator.

[@Visuvh]

I wonder where that mellow track is from in the beginning?

[@ariaamini1274]

You are amazing❤

[@giannisgiannis870]

1:01 I am scaring when i am looking their faces..

[@AotO_DJ]

When Gaia, Prometheus and fucking NIDHOGG arrived, it started to be surrealistic :D

[@shizu181]

[@edwardcalam8026]

[@buraktoprak2935]

[@ahmedabdelhedi3830]

Great job

[@LegoAngel-yk6pe]

i wish Ash Williams (Army of darkness) or Max Steel (1999) or Action Man (1993) were little like Arkantos Hotaru Tomoe or tee zeng (kung fu wa) or Gigi (Underdogs) or Chino Kafuu (is to order a Rabbit) or Dot or Lotta or Audrey (Harvey Street) Like Castor ,intelligence

[@leomh6422]

muy buena se merece un buen like

[@petertomszabo6268]

How did you create the Bridge at 2:07? Please help me ! you are Awesome ! And how can you rotate the frickin' camera? I can't...in editor, I can't...

[@sincromelon2912]

He just maded a high ground and them used troia walls on the sides '-'

[@petertomszabo6268]

Okay..but...When i made a high ground..it's so oblique...VERY oblique...And its ugly.. :(

[@richsonofgothmog1020]

[@shadowwolf5628]

No voice of speaking or chatting only music going on!!

[@fartz3808]

Arkantos is Commodus? And where is MAXIMUS?! That Hannibal vs Scipio battle was 100% taken from Gladiator, but this time there was no Maximus to lead them!

[@spartame450]

2018

[@ES-pc6co]

Is it developer scenario or part of single player campaign?

[@BrownFoxWarrior]

This was all made just to show off this guy's unit pathing skills. :P
