    Personally I could never stomach the insta-gib cavarly of vanilla in multiplayer.

    Having problems getting EB2 to run? Try these solutions.
    ================
    I do NOT answer PM requests for help with EB. Ask in a new help thread in the tech help forum.

    Its the sheer horribleness of the units that make my stomach turn. How could they release the game with units that looked so horrible, and not just the colours too...they were really bad models and skins.

    Which was why I played RTW at maximum zoom-out so I didn't have to look at them as anything more than abstract units.

    Why can't I play vanilla? The loading screen comes up but it CTDs before it gets to the main menu

    See? Your computer cares about you so much that it is trying to spare you the horrors of vanilla by CTDing before the flashy war pigs and Arcani burn your eyes out. I think some lucky PC deserves a nice defragmenting...

    I'vwe played vanilla this weekend. Just for laughs. it's fun to see my computer take all the graphics at maximum and not budge... Also, cavalry charging against 3 units of hastati and punching a hole trough them...

    Oh and the fact that their Generals seem to think that the front of my triarii are the best cavalry targets.


    Cheers...

    I remember my first vanilla campaign ..
    4 units of Armoured Eles (that is 48 eles, to be precise) + 6X2 MegaOnager deathrayz + Hannibal + several Sacred Bands wearing good oldfashioned corinthian helmets ..
    I've destroyed walls of Rome completely and let my Imperial Trumplers in .. rome-kebab
    I love vanilla

    Well I do agree with you but I'd just like to play it every now and then to remind myself how good EB is
