Nobody Writes Down The Losers (A grim dark historical Litrpg, Book 1 complete 140k+ word)

Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it. For Pierre, a disaffected port worker at the end of his rope, it was just another platitude — the kind people repeat to sound wiser than they are. Until humanity is taken under new corporate management and is forced to participate in the bloodiest bits of history all over again. Thrown into a deadly simulation of a distant past, Pierre lands a month before the might of Rome crush the rebellion and with it the fate of a civilisation.  An ancient city is going to fall. Pierre's faint memory of how this war ends is the only weapon that might change that — he should have paid more attention in school.  A flood of system-powered modern humans should have made this a piece of cake. The local myths did not agree. With only a weak blessing  and a broken game interface, even surviving to make it to the war is doubtful. At least the headhunters are friendly.
