I was playing Rome Total War and I got past alot of turns. Then my faction (julii) started losing money. At this time I did not know there where Cheat Codes to help. But I got to -124 Dennerii. I looked at the charts and all the other factions where rich (compared to my Faction). Then before I knew it 5 Factions where attacking me at one time. Then lost those 5 cities. Then 8 Factions attacked me all at one time. I lost those 8 cities. The bad part was that i was still -100 Dennerii. So i could not hire any more troops or build any more buildings or worse walls. So then about 15 of my cities rebeled. My faction died just as i had 20 dennerii.
