@SouthwaterPanda - I wanted to add my thanks.

I have always been fascinated by Roman history, and longed for a computer game that dealt with the period as well as board games like Imperium Romanum II by West End Games. I'm optimistic that RTW is finally that game, the Holy Grail of computer games for me personally. So it's good to see the level of support and accessibility that CA is providing. Looking forward to losing myself in Rome next weekend!!
