It would be surprising to see anything other than Total War as the subtitle. If it was anything else, then there would be those saying that it wasn't a part of the Total War series etc. Expecting anything in latin would be pushing it, I think.

Pushing it even further would be to expect a game without a subtitle in these days. Subtitles can make sense for game series, but I wonder if Doom would have been a better name with some silly slogan.

I think Total War is the title and Rome is the subtitle. Total War is the name of the series after all.

I agree... Shogun: Total War, Medieval: Total War... well the next step is not all that surprising is it?

I think the title Rome: Total War is just fine.
The subtitle "Total War", provides the link that associates all the games in the series. http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif

libera et impera is latin for: liberate (conquer in roman) and reign (enslave in roman).
