Are the Romans too Powerful?

[guineawolf]

i think that it is the idea of the developers,since it's objective is to capture Rome to win the campaign,then it must create those superior army nearby to avoid it being captured so easily to increase it's difficulty(just like a knight must defeat the dragon to reach the sleeping beauty,hehehe )

i read it,historically that roman are 1 of those greek culture,and their original army are same as greeks,based on hoplites and phalanxe formations.But since it get defeated by gauls come from north with using phalanxe formations,and Rome itself almost get abandoned by it's people,but 1 man summoned them back to rebuild Rome.Since then,romans decide to adopt the gaul's equipment and fighting style and give up the phalanxe,then it is the creation of legions.
