@hankock1015 TOTAL WAR EVERYTHING!

@hankock1015 Dude, you serious? Playing with Greeks is a pain in the ass. The only capable infantry is the Spartans. Their cavalry sucks dick. The only good archers are the Cretans. If you played for Athens, it would be unwinnable.

@hankock1015 i wold prefer all dept has as part of rome 2 and not a single game that wold be reseived as napolion tw and i think they dont want that to happen again :)

@DestroyerAlexandros That just proves that the pen truly is mightier than the sword... never heard of 150 warriors destroying entire armies though :|
-
alot of people complain about the unit balancing, which to be fair was off but the cavalry was alot better than med2 cos in med 2 the minute the first man in a unit hits an enemy unit they just stop unlike in rome the they can actually smash right through. to beat romans as britain i generally outflank the cohorts with heavy chariots while using a bulk of infantry to keep the help then crush them. but still rome is really op

@TheGOTH13 Well no I don't agree. Rome was good at management and culturally integrating the conquered factions. They really gave them the feel that they are now a part of a multicultural superpower. They let them keep their religions and rules, and in return those guys gave taxes and men for the army. Many formations of the time could kick Rome's ass, pound for pound, so to say. For example the Sacred Band of Thebes - 150 men, closely nit, they took out whole armies alone.

@DestroyerAlexandros rome outside of the game makes everything looks like shit :D they where the biggest military superpower ever

@Aethelhald Unit balancing was crap, but that's why there were few units, made it more like chess. Not like other games where all the units are the same and equally strong. Gauls were Basket 2. You play hard, you win and you get 5 points instead of 3. Done deal. Rome's urban cohorts were vulnerable to chariots. Britannia and Egypt made Rome look like shit. Sele and Macedon made Brittania and Egypt look like shit. Scythia and Carthage made Sele & Mac look like shit. Rock, paper, scissors man.

@DestroyerAlexandros Still unplayable. Unit balancing was crap. Factions were totally misrepresented. Gauls were nothing more than shirtless barbarians with terrible units. Rome's Urban Cohorts... what the hell were they meant to be? Rome's Urban Cohort in real history were little more than just town watchmen, not OMGWTF mow everything in front of them down with ease, like they were in vanilla RTW.
Rules or no rules, that game was horrid until Europa Barbarorum fixed it. Except the music.

@Aethelhald book with all the things I had down it would be called "How to win 1v1 Games in Rome Total War" but nobody would read it because too few people played the game and tournaments didn't pay money.
Jeff Van Dyck is a fucking genius!

@abcdefghijk70833 dude, they need a Greece: Total War. Factions: Athens, Sparta, Corinth, Thebes, Crete, Olympia, Macedon, Persia, etc. Basicly, all Greek City States, Macedon, Crete, Persia, and other Greek enemies, and allies.
