Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

This game is INCREDIBLE! I am Roman, from Rome, Italy. Classical studies are in my backgroung... this game is a perfect recreation of ancient Rome: its politics and, especially, the way Romans used to conduct war. You can play the game in tactical and strategic way, deciding to just stick to strategic or to delve into tactical too. In strategic, you govern cities, move armies, build new structures (as Temples, Academies, Stables, Training Facilities, Arenas), hire and train troops, etc. If you do battle you then decide if you want to go into tactical or just want the fight to be resolved based on the number and kind of troops you have. In tactical you fight. You will see hundreds of soldiers on the battle field. All in formation, just as the Romans used to fight. You will battle hordes of barbarians, opposite Roman factions, greeks, etc... What was in history... IS IN THIS GAME. But most of all...this game is FUN. Normally games that are too realistic are really boring. This game has it all. I won't go on and comment too much on graphics, fighting engine, help menu, sound... because it is all so good it all deserves a 10 out of 10 and just one comment: SUPERB!!! I'll just add a note on Soundtrack: I makes you feel like you were in the first 20 minutes of the movie Gladiator. Incredible. This is one of the best games I EVER SAW IN PC. If you are an RTS fan YOU HAVE TO BUY THIS GAME.
