I agree, i prefur to weak and on the verge of destruction, than conquering everything in sight, killing everyone, it does get a little tedious.

Thanks for the welcome.
I havent play Rome and I only halfway through my first grand campaign in MTW2 but I played many games of MTW/vikings and shogun and I didn't mind their end game experience that much. Nothing like the tedious end game grind of Civilization where half of hour is spent managing polution/barbarian invasions/tons of city production queues. Civilization is a mirco managers wet dream!
Ive seen that in the shops, just looks like a Caesar game to me, just organising cities and samll armies, nothing like the true conquest of M2TW!

Civilization is a very addicting game, and very much like the empire building game similiar to total war series except there is no real time component. Howeve,r most folks who are fans of RTS games find the gameplay of Civ little slow and boring. Since I am old fart I was weened on turn based strategy games so I love those types of games.
I agree with that accusation, however empire building games can be interesting, if it is simular to Caesar, i got addicted to that game, playing the same map for over 7 hours solid

LOL, I can't remember if I played Ceasar I or II, But I choose the maps with the military conflicts. I used to wall up the sides of the screen to slow down Hannibals elephants so I could get my armies in place to meet them.
I think I stopped at the final map. I couldn't produce enough luxary areas or something to complete it and I just became bored with the game. Haven't touch another city builder game since.
I had a city with 'slums' on my file, i didnt likea wierd questor level, in a desert, i demolished my whole town becuase i couldnt get the food to the people and the houses were all little huts... very annoying. Also pottery is impossible to get a hold of in Questor, i had to stop selling Weaponry and that was my most valuable source of income
