    you shouldn't really have any probs...maybe you should get 256 mb...that might help a bit...but otherwise you will be more then fine I suspect...

    Hey SeljukSinan

    Thanks for not flaming me for not seeing the Rome thread

    It was very informative

    Now we can only hope, that this amazing graphics can be implemented in a way that sustains the current playability...

    Wow, I have to say, this looks REALLY good. Of course, I will buy Viking Invasion too (there goes all my money), but that trailer is really mindblowing. I've seen FPS games with less detailed people. Granted, that might be a movie, but even the in-game shots in the main thread look great. And Elephants I assume these are Carthiginian Elephants, but if the Persians and Greeks are put in, I hope the Indians are as well. They perhaps didn't have a huge influence, but they had Elephants which were powerful, and very early longbows. Porus is my hero ^_^

    Oh, and this is my first post, but these forums seem very friendly, hi everybody

    And don't forget the North African Forest elephants (now extinct), which were much smaller than their Indian and sub-Saharan cousins

    Lord Xeen : the elephants are probably from everywhere, specially Pyrrhus used them.

    I noticed that The Great Dane was worried about 128Mb of graphics card memory not being enough to handle RTW-don't be. You can't even actually buy an off-the-shelf card with more than 128Mb, so it will be more than enough.
