Hiya Pittbull, and welcome to RTW.

Go to your folder "Rome - Total War\data\world\maps\campaign\imperial_campaign", make a backup of desc_strat.txt and then open it.

At the beginning of the file you will see this:

Code:

campaign imperial_campaign playable romans_julii romans_brutii romans_scipii end unlockable egypt seleucid carthage parthia gauls germans britons greek_cities end nonplayable romans_senate macedon pontus armenia dacia numidia scythia spain thrace slave end

Change it to:

Code:

campaign imperial_campaign playable romans_julii romans_brutii romans_scipii egypt seleucid carthage parthia gauls germans britons greek_cities macedon pontus armenia dacia numidia scythia spain thrace end unlockable end nonplayable romans_senate slave end

... et voilà!

it says:

Quote:

"cannot create the C:/ProgramFiles/The Creative Assembly/Rome - Total War/data/world/campaign/imperial_campaign/desc_strat.txt file
