Multiplayer is only battles :( I was disappointed.

They need to patch in a multiplayer campaign game.

damn just battles. I would really love to do a campaign with another person so we could ally and such. I guess that would take some doing but if Civ and do it I think these guys can. Granted Civ doesn't have the RTS factor that RTW does.

Do you really want to do a 20 hour long online campeghn? that would be worse then a long EQ run

I'm sure you would be able to save the campaign.

Sadly after beating it a couple of times, I am already bored with the game. Time for something else I suppose.

Yeah it got boring after I beat the original campaign, but I got it for free at least.

Do a quick entertainment value check. Price paid divided by hours played. This game faired better than most non MORPG games.

No this would be a save the game and play over a few weeks/months kind of thing.

I haven't beaten the game yet but then again I only get a few hours a week in which to play. So I have a lot of entertainment left.

When you say "beat the game", does that mean you just complete the objective, or do you attempt to take over the known world?

You know, you can save when the "Completed Mission" screen comes up, and keep playing till you own the world.

Is there any way to unlock the minor factions like the Armenians, the Macedonians, and the Scythians?
