Rome: Total War

Sun Jan 09, 2005 5:55 pm

Anybody get it? It was one of the games I got for christmas, I like it. (Y) I been using the house of scipii on imperial campaign, but I think I may quit it. :( I been going around crushing people's armys, then egypt comes and attacks me so then I send two armies to destroy egypt but then I realize how huge they are. :x But I can take them, my armies are powerful and mighty.

I captured the pyramids at giza and they make your egyptian population loyal, so whenever I got an egypt settlement I just occupied it instead of slaughtering everyone. So then there was a revolt and I lost my pyramid, which triggered a chain reaction and I lost half my empire. :( And both my main armies have the plague....... so I don't know what to do now..

I got this game a little while back, but haven't really had a good chance to play it yet. Shogun and Medieval Total War are both in my top 10 games, so I dont see why I wont like Rome Total War...

Yes, aside from the obviouse , it being a Roman Time theme compared to Fuedal Japan , there is a completely new graphic engine , and totaly new campaign map method , not to mention there are such features as the senate , over throwing rome , shit like that. Its a must have if you found Shogun the least bit appealing , which I did too.
