The map was extended to cover all the area between Iberia and Epeiros in the Mediterranean. RTR VII: FOE begins with the Pyrrhic invasion of Italy in 280 BCE. The mod is based around the story of Hamilcar Barca`s conquest of Iberia, and as such the player is able to relive these experiences, while still experiences the 'free roam' concept which dominates the Total War gaming series. What differentiates RTR VII: TIC from other mods in the RTR series is that it is a comparatively short campaign that could be completed in a relatively short amount of time. Playable factions include: The Celtiberians and the Carthaginian Republic. The goal of TIC was to provide and short, detailed and story-driven experience from which the player could play and emulate the conquest of Iberia by Hamilcar Barca and the Carthaginians. The campaign map covers all of Iberia and parts of southern Gaul. RTR VII: TIC covers the conquest of Iberia by the Hamilcar Barca and his contemporaries in the name of the Carthaginian Republic in a uniquely close and story driven campaign.
