I was going to ask if you want skirmish games or big games. As you’ve mentioned SPQR I will presume your talking skirmish style games

From what I’ve read and the problems ensued I would say that SPQR is pretty much dead in the water.

Saga is very popular and lots of people on here would recommend it

 

There is a new game Clash of Spears which is delivering the last if it’s Kickstarter pledges . I’m informed it will be up for retail soon. Having played it I can say it has some simple yet interesting mechanics that will keep you  entertained. At the moment the army lists are only covering the Punic period but work is  being done on the dark age period
