Have to say that it is brilliant. I played it from half 3 to bout 1 in the morning with only 1 CTD.

My Julii campaign is going well and i've eliminated the gauls and the Brits (had a great last battle against the brits - It was their faction leader with about 1200 men and me with about 400 consisting of only 4 units hastati and 3 units of equites, i decided to just go on an all out attack as there didn't seem to be any way i could win. In the end i managed to kill over 1000 of theirs including the faction leader and i lost only about 250-300 including my captain)

Just taking on spain and the macedons(sp) now and have conquered corinth, sparta and athens.
