I am not ranting or whinning over here. I am playing RTW all day too, its a far better game than MTW and most of the gameplay problems player encounter are either endurable or moddable.

Since STW I ranked every game of the series on my top-5 but never top-1. I believe that I am not the only one, but then again if I am, I am just posting my humble opinion. STW, MTW and RTW lack a good diplomatic module. Well in RTW there are the features but they seam to be just there.

I believe that in RTW everything has been improved from MTW. I mean everything. Even the battle AI. The game win many many points on the small and hard parts to make (great graphics playable even on older systems, and "hundreds" of little things from ambushing to pre battle speeches and the "toggle follow general camera")

BUT it seems that the easy part, Diplomacy (its easy because we have seen it before on Civ3 or EU2) is not done. I know they are able to make a good Diplomacy AI and I just don't know why. And I Diplomacy is the only thing I am really complaigning about. Because I know its very hard to fix it with a patch.
