You'll be opposed by both Religious and Civil Authorities, but you will have a wide array of signs and wonders to help in your mission.
Reviewer : This game is HARD. Never once have I been able to escape being crucified by the Romans!
But wait! Like any good game, there's DLC

DLC #1 Rise of the Church
In a post-crucifixion world, your job is to turn your group of followers from a tiny Jewish Sect to a Religion all it's own. Beware, the persecuting Romans are even tougher than before.
