The best part about this game is the graphics. The units march as one and u can have around 80 men in a unit. The units are very historically accurate with their gladius's and all the above. The units have interesting formations like the testido form (which the roman armies use like the formation in gladiator when the chariots are fighting the gladiators). Some calvalry have the wedge formation. The archers aren't as strong as they should be. But they can fire on the enemy and the enemy will lose morale and when the enemy u were firing on goes into melee u they may retreat easier than normally. And when clavalry and elephants charge the enemy the enemy infnatry fly into the air. So this game is very realistic except for the navy battles which auto resolve. And the ships take forever to sink. You can also defend cities from walls make siege stuff wehen u are siege a city. The campgaign map is where u manage cities, build units, assasins, spies, diplomats, ships, taxing, moving armies, settign up ambushes and, other interesting stuff. You can also build watch towers and forts (forts if u have a general with you in that army). Overall this game is great except for the navy battles which are the only draw back. The difficuly is alittle easy except if its on very hard.
