The day is oooooowwwwwaaaaaaaarrrrz!

I have to agree about the crappy voice acting... the Carthaginians/Greeks/Macedonians/whatever have the most bizarre accent. They shouldn't have faked an accent, and should have instead gotten an Arab and Modern Greek accent instead, it might not have been historically accurate, but it sounds better and it's less irritating than what they have now. But I like the battle speeches in general, except that my troops keep cheering when the general says the enemy is going to wait in the forest to come out and slaughter them all, yet, when he says they vastly outnumber the enemy, you can almost hear the virtual crickets chirping.
