Flavius Juilius was the major Genaral of his kingdom,so he placed 2 of his sons in two different cities, Lucius in Arretium, and Quintus in Ariminum both to keep the citys safe in case of any rebelins. Flavius also had 2 people to take of enemy armys or towns and that was himself and his last son Vibius.

The Senate gave them a task not to long ago to to take the province of Segesta. Flavius offererd to do this task and take it with his army of 2 units of Hastati, 1 unit of Triarii, and his last unit of Roman archers. Lucky for Flavius he could assult the town without waiting for his engineers to build a ram, which he and his engineers were very greatful of. It was about 3 months until he finally reached the town of Segasta.

Lots of words dont keep my intrest

im sry, but if you tell me how if any1 can tell me how to do it ill but it in my next thread:mickey:

Hi ilikethisgame5,
Although pictures are not completly necessery to an AAR some people do like to have them in.

If you wish to insert a picture to here at the Org then all you have to do is:

1. On your keyboard, in game, first press the Print Screen key.
2. A file should appear in either "C:\Program Files\The Creative Assembly\Rome - Total War\tgas" if you have Gold and "C:\Program Files\Activision\Rome - Total War\tgas" if you have standard R:TW.
3. You may notice that you cannot open the file. To do this you need a graphic converter such as this one.
4. All you have to do then is convert the image to GIF format following the instructions with the program.
5. Then upload the image to www.imageshack.us and copy and paste the "hotlink for forums 1" text and then paste it into your post.
6. Press submit and you have your picture!

Good luck, cheers!

BTW, nice AAR

It sound like an actual historical event being narrorated. nice. but you do need some pics. they will help us visualize what is happening.

Alternatively, you can use FRAPS, which you download here. It's a small program that you can run simulteanously while playing RTW. The screenshots made with fraps are in bmp format.

You can also use photobucket to upload your pictures.

:bow:

Or Irfanwiew.

IrfanView is the program of choice for tga files taken within RTW
