Yes, he was a child of a poor family, but since he was very intelligent Scipio's family adopter Scipio Emilianus, and they made a Greek philosopher teach him. At that time Rome had Just conquered Greece, and that philosopher was actually a slave in Scipio's family! Also, Scipio's family was the First Roman family Who was favourable of adding the Greek culture to Rome, while many other Romans thought the Greek culture would corrupt the Roman mind.
Epic and Scipio prime is Publius "Cornelius" Scipio Africanus - family Cornelius. Africanus was Rome leader durning 2nd Punic war and he defeated Hannibal at the Battle of Zama. This Scipio "Aemilianus" (Publius Cornelius Scipio Aemilianus) was from family Aemilianus and he definitively destroyed Carthage during the 3rd Punic War. This new Aemilianus was adopted into the Cornelius family and therefore bears their name and his adoptive grandfather was our epic/prime commander. Sometimes the terms Older (epic/prim) and Younger (new) are used to distinguish
Plus, there's another Scipio which is very famous, in Gnaeus cornelius Scipio, Scipio's father which has fought during both the first and second punic war, was elected consul but he ultimately received a grave injury that left him crippled by Hannibal Barca
I vote for nicknaming him "Milio" He is broken beyond imagination. He litteraly does it all: High damage High debuff Tanky Antiswarm. The best pair will be Wallace for sure even if we are missing on a part of the 4th skill. We now live in a world where Infantry is the best OpenField, garrison and rally at the same time
@@otalgebra4436 25% normal damage taken reduction is not anti swarm? Probabilities are 30% and 50% and all cooldowns are 5 sec! Weren't you say Eleanor is trash and easy to swarm? Sorry but you better keep experiencing
Lol. I think the devs don't want you pairing this commander with Guan Yu. It would have been dope if the new commander didn't have to be a primary commander. Then his silence could stack with GYu. 😅
The surname Scipio was very popular back in those Roman days and there were only like 19 available renown names so this was an honor title given amongst renown soldiers along with “Africanus”
Aemilianus and Africanus’ military success especially in Northern Africa mostly against Carthage created a myth that no scipio could be defeated in Africa
That's really great to hear, but Lilith's commanders are still a bit...lacking in representation lol. How many commanders have the damn greeks and romans got? All the Indians get(as far as i'm aware) is chandurya gupta and all the Africans get is Cleopatra and Amanitore(who both suck). Just saying man, I really question if anyone even asked for this
As long as i'm scrolling down the comment, you replied to all (almost) those comments, so this comment is just to appreciate how great you are brother in this comunity. Always here waiting for new videos. Have a gday
The second skill should have said. If the commander troop is rallying his infantry gain 30% health. If hes not they gain 15% health. Kind of makes him fieldable.
Scipio Aemilianus doesn't get the silence on his 4th skill if he is the secondary commander, so I think there is almost no question, he has to be used as the primary commander unless some other configuration provides another benefit that somehow completely outweighs his silence.
Thank you for getting content out so quickly on this release, your dedication is appreciated 👏 I'm still a little dubious on this commander after speaking with Rexian in the Infantry fortress discord who gave some really interesting input on his skills etc. Seems like he will be quite niche. Will be good to see how he performs during testing, but not one I'll be insta maxing until he's been proven
I think he will work in the field because of the high damage caused by Smite and the speed of activating the active skill due to experience. Experience does not work for 2 seconds, but for 4 seconds because you have commanders on the march who activate their active skill, meaning rage speed, at 40% for 4 seconds.
If the garrison target gets silenced from from that 50% chance but their rage is not full, does this mean that the silence would negate any instant skill dmg proc(ex: Alexander The Great, even though he's open-field and not garrison)?
His third skill also only works when you get attacked, which will also not happen a lot of times in the field. He will be useless there. Insane rally though
For someone that only wants 1 or 2 Inf marches max..what do we do? Is LC still top priority? If we have 5551 Scipio and they’re dropping Smite for Inf now, is he worth maxing since another commander will be silencing now?
so many Scipio in the game right now, we don't care about the new Scipio, all we need is a Sun Tzu Prime with circular AOE skill and tons of inf health and march speed stats.
You will likely want this new scipi as primary because of the damage taken debuff on his active, will make the secondary active skill hit harder. Otherwise that 20% damage taken will largely be wasted mid cycle on basic/counter attacks.
Doesn’t it look exactly like minamoto? Minamoto expertised: 2600 single target damage, makes the target take 30% more damage. Scipio: 2700 single target damage, 20% more damage. Minamoto has 20% attack and 10% march speed, while scipio has some march speed and health. Basically it’s an infantry rally minamoto
Also smite commander !! And for rally ! One fo the stats in his 4th skill whixh is silence require him to be primary which is bad for me 😂 . I will test him as secondary with tarek . All good lets pray that no need for his silence .
I'm going to say ot before anyone else: Aemilianus with William Wallace will be the new rally meta. Wallace is increasing the dmg of Aemilianus by 40%!! That's 1080 dmg increase for Aemilianus!!!! So Aemi will hit the target with 3780 dmg factor and then make the target take increased dmg factor and William will deal 2400 + 480 because of the 20% smg increase, also don't forget that technically William is hitting him with 2700 as well because of the 300 aoe and in a rally situation you will be attacked, so basically he deals a total of 3240 dmg!! Imagine a Rally combination dealing 3780 and then 3240 dmg factor. Oh and it's smite smg btw, because most of the commanders only reduce skill dmg. And after all this, they are even tanky. I have no words left lol. It's truly infantry season and I'm lovin' it
Scipio is not a name. It is weird from the beginning that Lilith put it into commander name while no Duke or Queen, or General word being used in other commander names.
@@OmniarchOfficial cz its written there to be read, like anyone's first name. Who care if its not name. We read and call without googling what is the meanibg of the written name from some culture we are not familiar with.
I wrote these replays to lillith support 4- each time we invest in something in game you release new thing and forget about the old thing that we worked on it for months and paid tens of thausends on it, always our investments mean nothing to you . Specially smite damage has no debuff in all commanders so far ( maybe in some armaments inscreptions ) but there is no talent tree in any commander ans there is no skill in any commander that can deal with this damage type ). So our skill damage commanders became letterly useless infront of those commanders . And now our good wedge armaments as well !
Scipio prime with new scipio (health debuff by prime +2700 nuke that gonna be huge nuke) Liuche with wallace (40% all damage increase by wallace gonba be devastating)
I vote Scipio3. That rage gain kinda makes him not need a horn so ring and dagger or coin. I think Scipio3 and Lui Che is the meta rally. Wallace pretty much has to a primary otherwise.
William Wallace is definitely the more exciting commander of the 2, I also don’t believe he will be meta for open field at best he might crack into a 3rd march maybe 4th but borderline no one runs that much. As a common mortal I’m not a rally lead 😂 so I’m chilling. It’s awesome that Guam Yu / Scipio Prime is still gonna be super usable open field even after all this time if you running 1 inf march you still don’t need to move from that pairing love it we’ll see what the next inf meta brings in a year 🤣
I wrote these replays to lillith support 2- You simply released a commander that require arch formation armaments that ( im sure ) that less than 10% of good players have good armaments for it ( most of players have good armaments and inscreptions for wedge formation ) ao this commander you released for few players not for the most players in the game those are normally releasing a rally . 3- Also im not feeling like this > its the truth check your database about the most popular formations in the game you will find that the wedge formation has 90% or even more . So its not about me ( feeling like this ) its simply the truth . Now we should pray and hope after one year that you release a skill damage inf commander that can be used for rally to use our good wedge armaments
I play RoK only because I am a history nerd. Pairing Scipio Africanus with Aemilianus would be nice, even if they don't actually combine well lol. PD: He's the in-game Scipio's adopted son and biological nephew
I wrote these replays to lillith support 5- When you released last skill damage inf commanders ? Tarek and sargon isnt ? 1 year ago ? And we should now still using for rally tarek pakal for another one year ? So we who uses inf armaments for wedge formation ( again check they are 90% of players in game if not more) we need to use 2 years old commanders cause you choosed to forget about us simple like that . This is what your descission means by releasing 2 smite damage commanders for inf . At least release 2 commanders in inf mge one for skill damage and other one for smite , to make some of balance. 6- we spent thausends and months to work on good wedge armaments and now you need us to wait another year to maybe get inf commander with skill damage . Thx for forcing us to use tarek pakal for another one year .
Damn! Scipio 3.0 + WW sounds cracked. Gorgo garrison is in huge trouble 🤣 Huge single target dmg, OP garrison debuffs for swarmers, high silence uptime, high rage gain for 1v1, and new talents remove 3(45) rage from enemy garrison each skill cycle? +30% health, -25% normal dmg taken, and immune health/defense debuffs? (dagger / web) Lmao🤣🤣
I wrote these replays to lillith support 1- Hi, I would like to express my objection and annoyance that you have released two infantry commanders with smite damage instead of releasing at least one of them with skill damage. I know that you will not change anything, and my words will not make any difference, but I just wanted to register my annoyance with this matter. You have forgotten that we have been working on forming a wedge for many months, and working simultaneously on forming an arch is very difficult even for whales. Our investments in forming the wedge have been wasted, and we now have to wait a whole year for you to release new infantry commanders, who might also have smite damage or perhaps a new type of damage in the game, disregarding the tens of thousands of dollars we have spent on the game to get good armaments for the wedge formation. It is a very sad day, and I did not expect you to ignore us like this. This is definitely a wrong decision on your part.
Nah that second skill is perfect. If you gave em 30%+ health on field, you might as well tell all other unit types the game doesn't matter. 🥴 Infantry is feasting and calv is becoming useless for the season.
@OmniarchOfficial Yeah, I'm more just whining. But definitely a killer for flag, fort, or city. Anti-swarm ability plus a swarm booster in the increased damage, and a dispel is going to be a must get fo tons of rally leads.
bruh now , it will be so confusing when someone says scipio and william , we won't know if they are talking about scipio africanus and this scipio and william or william wallace😂😅
