Faction preview 1 - ROME

[Brother Sam]

The map will right itself, we know of their plans have many regions and such, so no bother there. I for one am very much intrigued by the fact that it is one Roman faction yet we can choose which gens to play as. This could make for a very interesting multiplayer or RPG scenarios. I really wonder how they will implement it. Rome will definitely be my first faction so the representation and such will probably define my entire RTW II experience, first impressions and all that!

Ah yes, multiplayer. They removed hotseat in the tradinitional sense past M2TW. I know Lusted lurks these forums - he knows full well just how great Hotseat is and how much it improved the game (along with mods like SS and TATW). If Rome II has full, campaign map hotseat mode (not the deathmatch thing from Shogun 2) and is as moddable as were Rome and Medieval 2, then the game cannot fail even if it ships as a pile of bug ridden, DLC waiting dung (which I don't expect to be the case).
