You DO need 1.3 before installing 1.5:


totalwar.com

ROME: TOTAL WARTM PATCH v1.5 RELEASED

This patch is for the English, Spanish, French, German and Italian versions of Rome: Total War. You need to upgrade your version of RTW to version 1.3 before you install the 1.5 patch. If you do not, the patching process will not work and your game is unlikely to function. This readme details the main fixes made to the game. Other minor fixes and balances have been carried out. If you have Barbarian Invasion installed then you only need to install v1.6

Patch v1.5 – Download

Thanks a lot....

I have Barbarian Invation,but as I read someones had a problem to play EB with a Barbarian Invation installed...

Alkiviadi, what happens is this...

The problems you saw are when people attempted to play with BI.exe rather than RTW.exe

Therefore it doesn't affect you. Should you have BI installed or not, the RTW exe will be used as a base for EB to be installed and run on. So, it doesn't matter.

Even if you look at those using BI.exe there is a post saying EB team doesn't recommend that you use that and if you do, you 're basically on your own.
