So are you in? Just practice a ton once you buy the game. Or if you have Medieval: Total War already, then practice with that.

Sure you can join, write down what name you want to use in the banner thread and I don't think it will be more taxing.
As I said a couple of posts ago, if you can play C&C generals then you will be able to play Rome.

No, I don't think so. The shadowing has less calculations then UT2004 and all the newer games like that. The shadowing can really slow down your computer if you have extra shadowing put in like that in Doom 3 and Half-Life 2. Rome: Total War has a different type of shadowing, and although it is not as pretty looking as HL2 or Doom3, it doesn't sacrifice much performance. So, long as your machine is fairly up to date (let's say you bought a decent computer in the last three years), you'll be able to run the game on default settings no problem.

But if you an UT2004 fine on your machine, you are baically all set.

Oh yeah and who would win in a battle on flat plains (asuming their valour, weapon, and armor were all at 0): Feudal Men-at-arms or Feudal Seargents and explain why?
Maybe.

Yes, its been awhile though, and I didnt play online much.

How many of each are there?

Feudal Sergeants have 200, Men-At-Arms have 128. The ground is flatland.

But don't worry about it man, it was sort of meant to be joke.

Oh yeah, and the campaign map is no longer Risk-style as in, you cannot move anywhere you want in one province. But to make up for that, there's going to be a continous 3-D map covering the whole of northern Africa, Western Middle East, Europe, and eastern Asia. There's going to be about 10,000 different maps you can fight on, compared to STW's 300 or less maps.

Yep, but I kind of like Time Commanders better. The BBC2 used the RTW engine for one of their shows too. It was a game show that put amateur strategists together in facing some of the greatest battles of the ancient world. There's going to be a second season of that show coming on soon over in Britain.

Decisive Battles does have Spiers though! I can't wait until they show the Battle of Teutoberger Wald on there!

Exactly. Hey TB666, how did you link your signature banner with this forum.

O.k. that sentence may be a little confusing. O.k. here: How are you able to click the banner in your signature so it'll send you to the Clan forum?

Looking to join.

Greetings all.

Just wanted to say I'm interested in joining the clan if I could. I've been playing Rome since the day it came out. I've beaten the game with the Germans, Scipii, Macedonia, The Seleucid empire and Brittania, and I play Custom battles to hone my skills as much as possible. What Im trying to say is I don't suck and I have experience with the game. I also am a huge metal head so...

I will say though, I refuse to VS anybody online who choses armies of all Horse archers or Cataphracts...LAme ass weiners.

This is a new screen name for UM forums, I used to frequent here a while back as Frost of the sanctum on the Opeth board.
