    I agree that the main theme is melancholy and sad, but I've never been moved to tears by it. The impression I get from it is, "in a world gone to shit, you and your guys have to be the biggest assholes to survive".

    The Roman theme, now, really is something. I can never bring myself to push the next turn button until it's finished.

    I bang my head against the wall when I hear some of the Celtic/Lusotana music...

Now, obviously no one here, including me, bawls simply because of a game and some music, but it does make you want to do it, yes.

    The EB main theme?

    W.I.N.

    It makes me want to mount a Cataphract and spear some Ptolemaioi.

    I must say, the main theme was an excellent one to place when you are playing a nomadic faction and attack an army.
