Lord have mercy, but to you Sir, I have to explain like to a little child so that you understand something from what I saying.

First of all draw a line in your head, between ROME TW GAME and HISTORY. Again this game can not and will not repeat all steps as your dear history!!!

Second, you confuse the game character with the player himself. Recruitment of units on your behalf, you take it too literally!
Recruitment of units can be done: On behalf of your family who leading the Rome, in the name of your rank title or your status that allows you to do that, or already an dictator or... who cares as long as, you the one in front of your computer, you have somehow to recruit those units! Comprende Mi Amigo ?
And where I say that "One unit has my marks" dont take it so literally again. Its the only way to distinguish between units who are more loyal to you, than they are for the Empire X.

Again I repeat like to a child who not pay any attention to what I say here. I have already specified that all this can come only as an alternative to the old and very known boring way to play a game from the TW series.
If you could create two types of campaign. The first option for the campaign, the classical and well known to all, that one we have used so far. For the second one, comes my ideas.

You already bored me with your nonsense.
The fallacy in this comment, is too damn high!

Seriously though. It's both non-total war, and a bad idea by itself. Even if it was a good idea, I assure you that the developers would not risk wasting their time on it rather than make the grand campaign the best it can possibly be. It simply will not happen.


If you want to do something like this, Mount and Blade: Warband would be good for you. A large part of it is recruiting private armies and riding around, possibly joining kingdoms as Lords or Mercenaries, or simply staying independent. There is also some city management. Mods should allow you to play this out in a Roman era if you so wish.
