total realism 3.2 is VERY kickass compared to the released version.
i think what the previous poster may have experienced was that his cavalry was out of stamina. i'm pretty sure units lose stamina a lot faster than the superhuman athletes in the released version.
suposedly version 4.0 is going to extend the map all the way to india and possibly include a new faction entirely.
but the current version map is pretty simliar but with some additional provinces in places that make sense.
all the annoying stuff like overpowered bribery etc is still in the game because i guess thats not modable.
but the battles are far, far better. the units that made no sense whatsoever were removed. and the fake egypt in released version was replaced with a more realistic egypt influenced by greek culture.
many of the faction starting units were changed too, to make for a stronger carthage etc.
any total war player who is slightly disapointed with the released version I would recommend the mod to, it really solves most of the common complaints.
