I just got done playing Rome Total War, and that game is the best strategy game I have ever played. I love the changes they made in game system(i.e. no more province by province moving). So, I have three questions.

1) Why do you like the nation you like?
2) Is there any way, if any, to limit the lose of money due to corruption? That kicked my *** in the late game.
3) What is the most bad *** unit that doesn't cost an arm and a leg and doesn't take forever to build?

The reason I ask that last one is because I noticed Roman Legionnaries cost a lot to train and Praetorians/Urbans take 2 turns to build one unit.

I finished playing Rome, and now I'm playing as Parthia. It's a lot different on battles. Parthia relies on it's cavalry and you can't use cavalry like you use infantry. They require a lot more micromanagement.

4) I try to play Rome Total War online, but it says I need to download something from [url]www.totalwar.com.[/url] I've looked for this download, but I can't find anything. Help?

I just picked it up yesterday and I haven't moved since. I've got about half the world as the Bruilii (Bruilli? Bruitii? damnit I can't remember). There's supposed to be a patch to download but I couldn't find it anywhere. Try googling for it.

[nevermind, here: http://www.gpdownloads.co.nz/dl.dyn/Files/3429.html ]

[ or here if that doesn't work: http://games.softpedia.com/progDownload/Rome_Total_War__Patch-Download-5047.html ]

[oh, didn't see the poll. Guess it's Brutii. ]

//Why is that not an option?

Haven't played. But it looks interesting.
