Welcome to the Org(Am I even allowed to say that? oh well what's done is done ). Rome is personally one of my favorite games of all time. I started the series with Shogun and absolutely loved it, then I got trapped in Starcraft for who knows how long and came back to R:TW about 6 months ago. I was almost going to get M:TW to check out all the cool things people say about it, but I figured I could milk R:TW for all it's worth and wait for MII:TW, and I have. R:TW has a lot of potential with all the awesome mods out for it. Some of my favorites are XGM, RTR, and EB. Hope you can tap into this game's potential and have loads of fun.
