Broken them with my Noble Scythian Horse Archers (and a couple other units). Admittedly, it takes two units of archers to decimate their ranks at long range, and then a heavy infantry unit to charge in and cut them up once they're weakened. (If you can charge a heavy cavalry unit into them from the rear once the infantry engages from the front or flank, it helps a lot too. )
My Spartans broke quickly in my battle last night, which was uncharacteristic of them. Then I realized, I hadn't bought them any experience! I guess that has an effect on how long before they break, aye?

But if you're all about the destination, then take a fucking flight.
We're going nowhere slowly, but we're seeing all the sights.
And we're definitely going to hell, but we'll have all the best stories to tell.

I finally started playing again. It was getting difficult holding on to all my territories (35, I think), and I lost one to rebels yesterday, but also gained a new one. I'm working on a new strategy. On one front I have a diplomat bribing every army he sees, on the other a small army running round capturing rebel cities in the far east. Going to surround the Brutii and wipe them out.

i did this in north afric and then sent them to attack their origonal fraction.

First of all, Rome doesn't work very well with WMP10 - something to do with the newer codecs. Made mine crash quite a lot. Try rolling it back to WMP9 if you can.

it was very easy to install, so simple I don't even remember what I had to do to install it. It was probably just a simple "run the setup file and you're done" job.
