Alternative '(Mostly Untested) House rules':

You must wear a toga when playing as the Romans, or at least sacrifice a goat or bull before playing.

To increase battle difficulty during night time battles, player must switch the monitor off to simulate the affects of fighting on a really dark night whilst blindfolded and against an army of night-vision equiped troops.

Wardogs must have their attack skill edited and reduced to 1 as vicious pups shouldn't be out without a muzzle on when they're not a leash.

At least once every campaign you must send a massive army of peasants out to ravage the countryside. Hey, it's fun!


Plagues are best shared, so it is only kind to send your plague infected spies to your neighbouring faction's cities at every possibility. It would be rude not to.

(Drinking Game Rule): When playing as a Greek faction, everytime an advisor or unit says, 'Yes Strategos' you must have a sip of beer. Without the hour you'll be somewhat drunk, and by 3 hours, comatose.
