    Exclamation special campaigns ???

    Some days ago, I was searching in my RTW game-files and Idiscoverd 2 special maps: Caesar in gaul - campaign and scipio - campaign.
    At first sight, these 2 campaigns had different factions and different map's.
    First, my opinion was that those were files from my uninstalled EB file, but the files were in the standard battle map.
    My question: are these campaignes playable and when ?

    Hi Marcus Furius Camillus,
    These campaigns are leftovers from an original CA plan to include several provincial campaigns along with R:TW. I think the original plan was to include Hannibal Crossing the Alps (probably the Scipio campaign) and Caesar's Conquest of Gaul.

    In the end, these campaigns were abandoned due to a lack of time for implementation. Fragments of them do exist in the R:TW installation, as you have seen, but, without modding, nothing much can be done with them.

    Hope this is of use to you!

    Am i right in believing that theres a version of RTR with these campaigns modded in? Maybe a Craterus (SP?) campaign in as well?

    Might be worth checking out...

    CA simply decided not to continue with the "special" campaign maps that you found :( We can not play with those maps.
    Dignitas, maiestas, auctoritas, libertas, exercitus, imperium, iudicia, honores, consules, voluntas populi Romani
    Dignity, majesty, authority, freedom, the army, rule, judgements, offices, consuls and will of the Roman People

    Thats not constructive criticism, its just flaming CA

    Be constructive or don't bother posting.

    To the other posters: It is a pity, I would've liked to see different Period Campaigns a la MTW/STW too, it makes you wonder what RTW might have included had CA been given more time...
