Rome: Total War

Just curious if anyone here plays Rome: Total War (for PC). My interest in Rome goes back to elementary school and as a History major I took a lot of hours on the subject in college (my favorite: a 4-hour course on the Punic Wars, utilizing classic sources and taught by a brilliant professor). But this game has renewed my interest tenfold (hence, my finding this site).

 

If you aren't familliar, it's a great strategy game that combines empire building (like the Civilization series, but more in-depth) and a battlefield mode where one can command up to 10,000 troops at a time. However, you'll want to go to totalrealism.com and download the totalrealism mod, which turns an arcade-like game into one based on historical fact (these guys really did the homework and have produced a great - and FREE - product). Great game with the mod. Completely unrealistic (but fun nonetheless) in standard format.

 

Here are some links:
