I was wondering about something. Let's assume (gasp) first of all that the AI is everything it should be in comeptance and realism. If all the factions were controlled by the computer (no human player), would the Romans still be able to conquer the world? I have no way of knowing of course since I haven't seen the stats or gameplay of EB (though of course it looks great). But I must say those factions sure do look fierce. In other words, do/will the Roman soldiers have a real statistical advantage? I know in a few mods, such as Roma mod, it sure didn't feel like I was playing the mighty Roman empire, so I guess I'm also just getting curious about my own favorite, the Romans. :)
