Questions on RTW

[Blodrast]

can't answer the first one, since I only have 1 system. but what could possibly be difficult about it ?

2: I guess it depends how long it takes you to finish the campaign. I suppose it could be done in some 100-120 turns, at least on the easier levels. A leader starts at 15 or 16 I believe, and they usually die around 50-something (I don't recall having seen 60, but I didn't check regularly).

How many leaders for the long Campaign... hmmm well I'm almost on the 3rd Leader for the short campaign I'm about to finish. I started slow but now I'm totally Blitzing them so I think that 3 Faction Leaders for the short is about average.

The long campaign though will take much longer - maybe 2 to 3 times longer as you need to hold Rome and have 50 Provinces or something. Both of those are really daunting and will probably take upwards of 7 to 10 Faction Leaders to do it.

I haven't got the game yet either, but I won't let that stop me...

In MTW games were saved to a single file, and you could copy them around, so you could transfer them to another machine. Presumably RTW is the same.

However, if you wanted an e-mail campaign, surely each participant would have to take it in turns to play as the same faction, each player progressing that faction's campaign a little bit more. I can't see how you would be able to have an e-mail campaign where everyone is playing a different faction.

So this would be great if you are into non competitive sports and love cooperative play, but not so good if you want to thrash your friends.
