Scipio Prime History:
Scipio Prime, also known as Scipio Africanus, was a Roman general and statesman, born into a patrician family. His family produced several Roman consuls, and he seized Spain for the Roman Empire as a young man, driving out the Carthaginians.
The climax of Scipio's military career came at the Battle of Zama in 202 BC. Through brilliant use of tactics, he neutralized the threat of the Carthaginian war elephants and broke through Hannibal's formation, exposing the Carthaginian flanks and laying the foundation for a Roman victory. Although Scipio's armored infantry lacked mobility, their skillful use of formations helped them defeat the Carthaginians.
By this time, Scipio had driven the Carthaginians out of Spain and their own lands, defeated the “Father of Tactics” Hannibal Barca, and forced the Carthaginians to sign a peace agreement with Rome, bringing victory to the Romans in the Second Punic War. War.

Open field: Guan Yu (Guan Yu is the main commander) – Scipio's Specialized Skill increases Rage growth rate by 30% when the target is Silenced and Guan Yu's active skill has the Silence effect.
Infantry garrison: Flavius Aetius (Flavius Aetius was the main commander)
Open field: Harald Sigurdsson (Harald is a sub-commander) – Harald’s fourth ability (“Stamford Bridge”) allows him to activate his active ability more than once (on average) per ability cycle. When combined with Scipio’s Rejuvenation talent (which instantly restores 150 rage whenever an ability is used), this results in Scipio having more rage to activate devastating active ability damage and health reduction debuffs.
Open Field: Alexander the Great (Alexander as secondary commander)
