Not sure if this is supposed to go here. I started a campaign as the Britons, holed up in England and let the AI duke it out. By now, it's 220 BC.

Rome controls Sicily, southern Greece, Italy, the Alps, southern Gaul, northern Spain, and is about to conquer the rest of the Iberian peninsula. They have recently declared war on Egypt, who has by now conquered the seleucid homelands, all while fighting a desert war with Carthage.
The "What The Hell" award goes to the Thracians, who are busy annexing the Caucasus.
Extinct factions are Numidia (253BC), Parthia (237), Gaul (234) and Macedon (225). The Greek Cities and Pontus are holing up in their last respective settlement with a stack of units.
It seems like Pontus, Parthia and Numidia are suffering from a severe lack of cash.

Also had some random CTDs right during the first turns (none after that). Scared the armadillo out of me - I thought it was because of my traits, but that isn't really possible.

Are the Seleucids and Ptolemies at war? Did they conquer any significant territory to each other?

Like I said, the Ptolemies (=Egypt) have the Seleucid heartlands: Syria, Mesopotamia, as well as southern Asia Minor. It seems like the Seleucids invested a lot of resources into conquering India, which kept revolting to Parthia (who did absolutely nothing during the entire game, as did Pontus). Armenia did pretty well, snatching one or two settlements from the Seleucids, until Thrace came knocking.
I suppose the Ptolemies's conquest would have gone even more smoothly, if it hadn't been for Carthage.

Post some screens? Yes, I did a small test with Parthia, and they go in the red pretty quickly. It seems after xsithspawnx's Pontic campaign that money could also be an issue. Numidia doesn't surprise me.

Yeah Thrace is surprisingly powerful in this BETA.
God, Family, Baseball, Friends, Rome Total War, and Exilian. What more could I possibly need?

Screenshots aren't working for me. All I get when inserting the shots into paint is a black windows desktop.

The problem is not that I can't share the shots, but that I can't take them. All I get is a black screen.

Hi there ;)

@Sloth I had the same problem, I think that just happens with Rome I on Windows 7. Fraps works alright for me.

I had the same problem and Like Mausolos I too have windows 7, But I agree with Mausolos Fraps gets the job done
