On realism and the kill rate - RTW is a game!

[chemchok]

The annoying thing about the kill rate is that I rarely have any time to simply sit back and watch the melees close up during a major battle. I'm too busy monitoring my flanks, chasing down routers, and watching out for friendly fire. I mean, why did CA make such gorgeous battle animations, only to speed up the pace so much you can't even enjoy it?

How to enjoy 101:

Play as the romans, and attack a weak faction such as the gauls, but so that the battle will be fairly even. Only use infantry. Watch your good troops plow through the warbands, but slowly as there are so many of them. Enjoy the animations.
