yeah the Throne room was also made for battle accounts as well as PBEMs.

I am going to post one about my Parthian campaign, it should be interesting because the Egyptians in my campaign sent an army with some chariots (and probably other units as well, my agents haven't had a good look at it yet), and they are to be greeted by an all Horse Archer Army led by one of my generals (no Inf and no other cav unless I can afford some Bedouins)

Anyways looks like its going to be 'hit and run' all the way to Selucia... While my other Army works to steal Sidon and Jerusalem, hopefully after that I can make a dash for Memphis.

I'd like to hear about that one. If there is one faction I always stuggle to deal with its the Eggs. I played against them as Scipii and as the Seleucids and had a right old time beating them. They expand from the start like rats breeding on happy hour. Those big bowmen units plus axemen plus charoits make them a pretty decent faction to fight with. They also have two wonders from the off. Never wanted to play them as a faction though. Never been a sun worshipper sort I guess.

After reading all the posts about poor economies and having experienced bankruptcy myself a couple of times, I think I might have found a realistic solution that is easy for most readers to do.

Change the resource values in the descr_sm_resources file which is located in the activision/Rome/data files on your computer. They are low --- some as low as 2. The highest resource is gold at 30. I doubled them all and made some other adjustments. I made slaves the same value as gold. So when you enslave a population you will get more money. Doing this basically doubles your trade income. You still have to play the game properly and develop your economy.
