Play as one of three great Roman families, whose thirst for power will stop at nothing. This the world of Hannibal, Julius Caesar, Cleopatra and a thousand others. This is a world of soldiers, gladiators, tyrants, monsters and fools. It’s a rich, exciting world, awaiting a conqueror – you! You must use military genius to build an empire that stretches across Europe and Africa. Finally march on Rome to seize control of the greatest empire in the world. Then in Barbarian invasion either defend it or lead a Barbarian horde and bring the once mighty empire to its knees.

   Soon

   Hey, this is the best RTS mac game to date. Very well made and I love that you create armies in the Strategic Map than you can watch them fight in the Battle Map. Very few other games do this (besides the other Total War games). Oh yeah, and I can't wait for Empire Total War to be released on mac.

   Worth every penny

   I am a fan of the total war series, and this series is as good as it gets for strategy (I've pretty much played them all). You command from two angles; the war map (where you control scouts, assassins, armies, and diplomats, along with town/ city management), and the battlefield. The attention to historical units makes this game especially fun and puts the player in the time of the Romans.
   
   Not only can you play as the Romans, but the Saxons, Greeks, Thessalonians, Carthaginians, Egyptians, etc..
   
   Each country has its specified historical units that give them unique capabilities on the battlefied, providing an array of tactics required for the game.
   
   There are a few drawbacks to the game, and the series gets better in the later games (such as Midieval II, currently not available for mac that I know of), but this was definitely worth every penny.

   OK game

   by Josh, USA - Nov 19th 2011

   I bought this game with high expectations but the game really disapointed me. It has a great story and sounds like a really cool game. But the interface and handling of the game is horrible. The camera glitches up a lot and the animation is horrible. Save your money and buy a real time strategy game. Dont buy this game, trust me.
