I've just started playing Rome and I like the game... the realism behind it. It takes years and years to get anywhere (colonize). Wars are fought mostly short and then peaced without actually gaining land, just money as tribute etc etc I can really imagine that thats how things where 2500 years ago. Research is slow, building buildings etc a REAL investment (years of saving). You also see generations of the ruling families pass by over the years each with their own strengths and weaknesses.
There is moral in armies and population etc, battles are also not directly controle like in DOM
I'd love to see this game combined with dominions (there seem to be mod options for rome but I've got no idea what you could do)
Rome with
- great fantasy nations
- a bit faster expansion
- magic weapons and magic
- pretender gods
- more type of units
would be so nice
Or vice versa
Dominions with
- a bit more realistic province management
- a bit more realistic war options (I know dom seems good already but what they are doing in rome seems very realistic)
(hmm what more to add, dom almost has it all..)
So can anyone of you programming guys do this for me
/ me wakes up
