I bought Alexander, I just don't have it installed, along with about 40 or 50 other titles. I also have all of the general series, panzer general etc, all of the great naval battles stuff, all of the Elder scrolls stuff. I just never really got into the real time games, though I did have a few of the Age of Empires titles. I don't have the time that others have. I know that there are a lot of apparent flaws in all of the TW stuff, but since I only can get in about an hour a day, it doesn't matter much to me. Also, most of you have ripped into insides of these games and see how they work. To me that takes some of the mystery out of it. I am still blown away by the graphic look of the games. Anyone remember a game called Zork?...... Boy I played that to death, and it had no graphics at all. I hear people say, I've played Rome Total war for over 100 hours etc etc. I think they got their moneys worth...
