    What makes Nemesis of the Roman Empire truly stand out, however, is the artificial intelligence. On the easy mode, it's a breeze and presents very little challenge. On the tougher levels, it's a real bear that is sure to give veteran real-time strategy gamers a tough test.
  2. I really enjoyed this game, as evidenced by the 40 hours I spent playing it in the first 5 days I had it.
  3. If you are in the mood for battle and fancy rallying against the might of Rome or Carthage then you could do a lot worse than this challenging effort.

    The graphics are horrible. However, this game offers some civilizations, such as the Iberians, that no other game features. The core to this game is how good the AI commanders are. Worth buying, but not worth getting to excited about. Expand
