Rome: Total War II

Has anyone also noticed how model quality has gradually been increasing with each faction reveal. Compare this to the Macedon faction reveal screen shot and you can clearly see the development. The most striking difference for me is the rendering on those spears/pikes. Obviously CA is using the mother of all setups to get that kind of GPU peformance quality but they should still look awesome on our more humble rigs

Ptolemaic Egypt has close cultural ties to the Hellenistic world, while maintaining many Egyptian traditions. Founded by Ptolemy in 305BC following the death of Alexander the Great, it has become a centre of culture and trade under the influence of its Macedonian rulers.

Yeah, it's interesting the mesh of styles that Egypt was subjected two. Look at the design of many of the sarcophagi at the time.

I was just making the jab at the previous Rome: TW using Middle Kingdom Egyptians with the probable assumption that the players are morons.
