This is way way pre alpha.......
I see (or I hear) "a shameful display" by a new voice actor (intern) made it into Attila as well as Torches and blob battles. I may have considered buying this if it was an expansion to Rome 2 -should have been- that added family trees and a UI that doesn't cause you to throw things. It took about a year to mod medicate Rome 2 (God Bless DEI) to at least help some of the niveous barrenness. Again if these "torches" were so effective, why did empires bother to build walls or gates? It's a counter intuitive game from its fundamental inception. It's a really hard to right a ship when it leaves the port -again- with pre made holes before voyage. But it has kill moves!
