    Well it aired yesterday and i loved the way it used the RTW engine to show the battle of cannae. That was great

    I thought it was pretty damn amazing. I liked the way everything looked except for the cavalry i'm no expert on cavalry tactics,or any kind of tactics really, but i thought that the cavalry ,on both sides, looked a bit to well odered.

    It was so beautiful that I recorded it on VHS and watched it 3 more times, and I ESPECIALLY liked the libyan longspear men with their tight formation crumbling the roman line with their inpenetrable spears.
    (They reminded me of the Uruk-kais with tall spears during the battle of Helms Deep in lotr.)
