Forums → Games → Gladiator style RPG

So to put this in context, I'm a big fan of RPG games, especially online ones. I'm also a big fan of the spartacus series and anything that relates to gladiators as I find it both fascinating and exhilarating. Naturally, as a gamer, I've been curious for some time as to whether there was a gladiator rpg out there which was actually well made and fun to play...and I haven't seen ANYTHING. Am I missing the games? Or do they not exist? Why not? Wouldn't a gladiator rpg not be hard to create? The more you fight the better you get, it's highly based on skill and training, I'm sure gear could play a small part, weapon choices, fighting style, balancing issues like spear has advantage over sword, sword has advantage over daggers, daggers have advantage over spear (throw them I suppose?)

I don't know I'm just throwing ideas out, but do tell if you've played a gladiator style rpg and you thought it was fun enough that I should seek it out and try it.

Thanks
