Rome is a deep very immersive simulation like RTS and really defines what a war strategy game should be.

Rome: Total War is the best real time strategy game I have ever played and that includes all of the games in the Command and Conquer series. What really made me like the game is how deep and intricate it is. The actual battles you take part in are great, the camera is dynamic and the units are surprisingly well detailed and animated. The options for attack and controlling the battalions of units are well suited and make for realistic battle strategies. However I had more fun just managing my growing empire from the world map which is well detailed on its own. Moving individual armies that you organize, deciding family buisness, building towns and cities, dealing with foreign politics and just observing the empire are very entertaining in their own right. There is a lot of play time to be had and you will play for days on end and still have far to go. Its like an ongoing simulation more than it is a game although it can be played in a more consice manner if you wish to.
The learning core is steep and the naval battles have a lot of room to improve but this game still ranks among my all time favorites.
