Not personally a fan of the scroll, but it does stand out better.

Well at least I'm good for something.

Any way, I can't really draw very well. My sister is brilliant but she doesn't draw in a style that is useful to us. If we can find an image to use I can edit and tweak that til doomsday though. A video is a good idea too, however I personally have no experience with video editing.

For the record, there is no such thing as a "proper artist". What we call "art" is based on perception, to you a few dots and smears on a wall might not be art, but it probably is to the person that made it and likely is to someone else out there. Whether you can draw or not has nothing to do with you being an artist.

Any hoo, back to the topic. Are we set on making an image, or can we make do with one found, at least for a time?

Now for a whole carp ton (yes carp) of Spain vs Carthage!

Oddly enough I've never had BI crash randomly before. (Not counting the demo some years ago)

EDIT: Haha, still no random crashes from BI!

Tried testing the Britons. Got through 4 turns and the garrison of the city I attacked sallied. (The one west of Londinium)

Battle started, got my guys into position and when I tried to move my General it crashed. No error given. Got this off the windows report.

Looks more like a windows error than something to do with Rome though.
I had it on huge unit settings too, quick google search says that could have been the problem. I also am using steam to play it. System specs shouldn't be an issue.

ahowl and his army of RTW modding minions! He's going to take over the forum the way things are going.

We're perfectly willing to accept your surrender now if you prefer.

Greetings fellow minions. I don't tend to bother with these kinds of threads but hey, why not?

Tis I! The Lord Drake, fellow slacker!
