RTW ruins MTW for me.
There are some things that I just love about RTW which when I try to play MTW I sorely miss; this goes both ways. RTW has shown me facets which could be possible, but steals away Total War's soul. After playing numerous campaigns with vanilla, partial mods and full mods I realized that the game actually has less depth than MTW did. Most of that depth-loss comes from the way that the arcade-theme makes for a game that doesn't feel authentic. Sure, many things about RTW are better - but there's so many things that could have been better and since they had it almost right with MTW then it seemed like a no brainer.
As many people have said before:
If MTW had RTW's engine, I would love it.
