Well, from what i've read i would say that screaming Women etc. are quite ok, but i dont have the Game yet so i dont really know it yet.
When it comes to Cavalry: Yup Roman Cavalry was compared to almost everything else, but imho that didnt come because of the Lack of Stirrups but much more from Roman Military Doctrine takting Cavalry only in Account as Scouts and harassing Troops but at not as the Shock Troops they could have been. So in fact everybode (except maybe the Greek City States) had much better Cavalry then the Romans.
The Siege Towers, well i think these huge things were used in one or two Sieges but not so often, so what? They were used they are historically correct and as long as they're quite expensive they're ok.
