Rise of Rome is a total conversion for EA Game's Battle for Middle Earth by AtomicWienerDog. The goal is to turn BFME into Europe during the rise of the Roman Empire. Command the disciplined legions or Rome or the powerful cavalry of Carthage in a fight for control of the ancient world. Special powers now represent figures from mythology which buff your troops, making them even more deadly on the battlefield. Rise of Rome features all new units, buildings, upgrades, and special powers along with a new musical soundtrack and 30 brand new skirmish/multiplayer maps. RoR also comes with a custom installer/launcher which will automatically set the mod up for you while keeping your original BFME intact.
