I didn’t have distress installing the game and I can run it at max colors and resolution without issues. Sports meeting load moderately quick and the program exits quick.
The game reminds me of civilization with a twist. Battles are fought on a battlefield instead of automatically resolving (You can optionally automatically resolve battles). The campaigns are very long and I don’t have a complete grasp of the politics involved.
It’s fun, but not the most fun I’ve ever had playing a game.

The game is really awesome. The sound is really excellent. I like the main screen song.
The cavalry charges are cool, I like it when you rush into a bunch of archers, they go flying!
The only thing I don’t like about the game is that it always seems to me the AI is trying to
cheat on me, for instance, in skirmish, when I have hoplites, they always go to the side, which
really upsets me because they should come straight at me. I had a confrontation between 2 special
units, the DRUIDS v.s. BESERKERS. I had the Berserkers do a war weep and instead of standing
and yelling at everyone, they burst into battle and I had no control over them. I did like the
ending.

This game was really an incredible game, splendid for grown-up computers. Sounds splendid and graphics are pretty excellent, seeing that it operates on a win 98. If you have a excellent amount of times on your hand this will certainly get that time off. All in all it’s a pretty excellent pc game. [...]

This game is awesome. There are a lot of these war sports meeting out there where your entire army is represented by 5 or 10 people. Not here! 10-60 troops per unit + 20 units most per army + as many armies as you can fit in a given area = a heck of a lot of fun! also, the diplomacy and senate features add to the fun. Awesome game over all! If you like approach and war (video game war – not necessarily real-life lol) , you will like this game.

Or in my case, 144 turns…
The first thing I noticed was the Roman soldier on the cover doesn’t look particularly intimidating. Rather, it looks like he zipped up his chain mail too quickly after using the loo. The second thing I noticed was that there were three installation disks – what a pain! Disk II was in a plastic pullout sleeve that I immediately broke. I have never been able to figure those stupid things out. I mean, do you pop them in the front or the back? Either way, it’s not user friendly.
This game will take you back to the days of ancient Rome, circa 1492. When men were men and women were also men. If you’re anything like me, you’ll find yourself bellowing at full volume, “Slaughter every last one of them and then let the war dogs pick their bones clean!” when you’re waiting in line at Target.
As far as the game play goes, all I can say is WOW. It’s awesometatious. Not since the days of Sid Meyer’s very first Civilization game back in 1802 have I been so impressed by a digital offering.
My city management stylishness leaves room for improvement. Whenever I take over a city I immediately slaughter all of the inhabitants. Then I ruin all of their religious artifacts. Once they have completely submitted to my will I start recruiting soldiers. I’m still not sure why my population statistics are not going up… perhaps enslaving the remaining citizens will help them become “closer”.
Currently I’m 14,000 denarii in the hole. I’ve cut my operating costs down to -123 denarii a turn. I figure that I can make that cash back in volume. All I need is a few more cities under my control. I’ll let you know when I’ve conquered the world… or beaten this game, whichever comes first.
One thing bothers me about this game. You get so absorbed in the simulated world that often you forget about your base biological urges. I’ve ruined several pairs of pants and a couch because of this, though I did figure out a solution. I call it the Portable Milk-Jug Reliever, or PMJR for small. Yep, whenever I wake up I belt on the PMJR and head downstairs to carve up a rival Faction. Make no mistake though, the PMJR does have its small comings – for instance it can only contain 9 gallons of fluid. If you’re like me, this can be quite a limitation. Also, I do not recommend using the PMJR for solids. Please let me know if you would like a PMJR for your game play. Units start at a retail price of $48.95, but I’ll knock off 10% just for you, dear reader, bringing your cost to just $41.24! What savings!
