As for earlier foot units, they are armoured in different things. Camillian triarii wear muscled broze cuirass, compaired to the pectorale or shirt of Principes and Hastati. Also the EB team made their own new mail textures, so no vanilla crap here.
That's me sold. Muscled cuirasses are awesome. On a (semi-)related note, the Macedonian unit skins look ace!

As for battles, I think they are improved. Not like your suddenly fighting a real general, but better. The EB formations help the ai organize it's army better.
No more 'sorted double line... CHARGE' mentality? :o Haha, I learnt today I could repel pretty much any army if I got a load of the basic pikemen, put them in a kind of arc, added a few light cavalry units behind them and just... sat there. :P 1600 kills for me, 60 for AI? Yessums.

Indeed, many of the Roman units have little to no body armor.
Meh, so long as they have a single élite infantry and élite cavalry unit armoured like I wouldn't believe, that's all I need. :P

Install is easy, just point it in the right folder and click the mouse.
You're talking to someone who has messed up 'just add boiling water' meals before.

You can still play RTW with EB installed. Just use your original shortcut that was installed first off to get to vanilla and use the EB desktop shortcut to get to EB - simple.
Goodo. The 'play' button on the menu that comes up when the autorun thing kicks in will still work correctly too, right? I'm horrifically lazy, you see... and the easier it is to get to the land of flaming piggies, the better. :(


So... I'll need RTW v1.5, yes? >_> Cuz that's the version I have. 1.6 for BI, and something.something for Alexander. Hey, did they ever sort the camera problems with Alexander?

Thanks all. :)
