Reviews - The_Spin

This is one of the best RTW experiences I 've had this past year. It is has both the vanilla and a remaster feel in it. The in depth detailed map expands and slows the quick vanilla gameplay and can allow you to reenact a somewhat historical campaign. New units add on is also welcome adding more depth it existing and lacking rosters. Only changes I would like to see in a future update as either permenent or optional changes is 1) less horde type units, as they unfortunately are not that effective at fighting in the end, 2) if possible make Marian Reforms a historical event instead of being linked to Imperial Palace or 3) add an option to significantly lower population growth and 4) as most players at this time are already veterans, have all factions unlocked and available for play. With the forementioned suggestions in mind, when you start your Rome campaign, by the time you have unified Italy and start fighting other factions they are either already powerful to defeat or you have reached Marian Reforms. Example is you can get a lucky kill to unlock the Greeks due to their few territories and war with Macedon but Gauls or Carthage are almost impossible to defeat. So at least have all factions unlocked, including your interesting new add ons

Version 4 is amazing. I love all the new added content, plus the campaign is so much fun to play and refreshing, combining the feel of both book and movies, plus some cool cheaky easter eggs hehehe. Although I miss some content from Version 3 in Misty Mountains and Gondor. Probably these will come back in the next Version with Dol Guldur ? The lower points go because I feel that Fiefdom units looked better with the previous models and no Army of the Dead for Gondor, but these May come back around next release. Other than that its a must play and very enjoying. Are you still here reading this ? Go on and play this mod NOW!!!
