HenryLet's comments really suck!

Wow, that took me 10 seconds to type. That's the smallest fraction of a fraction of the time it took for Deimos, nowonmai, and others to program RTR5.0, not to mention the time it took other volunteers to playtest RTR5.0. Thanks for taking the time to post something constructive.

in my opinion the bottom line is that rtr 3 or 4 or 5 are better then the original game
the skins , the map , the economic , everything
there is a problem - bugs , but the intention is good , the moders are trying to stay close to history , hi thats importent isn't it ??

Agreed! And I really think that RTR 5.0 rather should be RTR 0.5 really. It still has a lot of things that must be fixed before anyone can consider it a final version.

I like RTR 5.0, but I also have a couple of minor gripes:

There seems to be a problem with phalanx units set to huge, they hold their formation when they make contact with the enemy, but they hold it TOO well, if only a corner of the unit makes contact, then only that part of the unit will fight, all the other men in the unit will just stand there watching their comrades die.. The unit will not move to make full contact and the result is lots of micro-management of phalanx units in battle to get them lined up properly. I'm sure this did'nt happen in the vanilla version but I could be wrong.

Also, whats with the unit cards? Why cant we have some pictures of the new units there instead of the usual peasants?

That happens anyway.
