But ancient geographers actually knew 12 ways to cross the Alpes and now these have been truly represented in the game, giving any invader a huge number of options. For example: once you could prevent any invasion into Italy by closing 3 passes over the Alpes. The new rivers and mountain passes give lots of new strategic options that will make up for a completely new game feel. Some rivers have even become partially navigable. You have a huge number of realistic mountain passes, river crossings, islands etc. It is a complete rework of the original map going from Scotland to India.
It took me two years of research and edit work, but now it is ready and it seems to be stable. This is why I started creating a new map. We have seen loads of new and very interesting combat units, but there are many other things to improve. But I was usually turned off by certain shortcomings, most of all regarding the campaign map, the regions and cities and the leader names. I like the idea of increased historical accuracy. I've also started playing some modifications (for instance RTR). I've been playing Rome Total War for several years and I think it is probably the best game I've ever seen. I'm a historian from Germany (recently I have published a book on the Peloponnesian War).
