TW Rome Vanilla made me really angry with it's hsitorical "inaacuracies" i.e. it was a JOKE. New Kingdom Egytians fighting post Marius legionaires? Phalanx Germans? BAH!
The real clincher for me was a "slave revolt" in an overtaxed city that featured "oliphaunts" as in super oversized elephants.
Oh that's GREAT! What's next? F#CKING ZOMBIE DRAGONS??? Maybe they can ride around in the anacronistic chariots and fire ray runs too!
However, once I looked around for some mods, this game has become the single most frequently and most absorbing game that I play. Personally, being a big fan of the Hellenistic / Diadochi period I'm an Extended Greek Modified user.
And the moral to all this?
MODDERS ROCK !!!
