I'm not a huge fan of TW games as I am not a fan of RTS style but I have been having some fun with the Nappy game recently.

Rome crashes after few turns.  :(  And Medieval too  :cry:

and my laptop is unable to handle Empire and Napoleon  :weep:

It is far better for the truth to tear my flesh to pieces, then for my soul to wander through darkness in eternal damnation.

Jet: So what kind of woman is she? What's Julia like?
Faye: Ordinary. The kind of beautiful, dangerous ordinary that you just can't leave alone.
Jet: I see.
Faye: Like an angel from the underworld. Or a devil from Paradise.

I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

I managed to solve Rome's problems and now I'm enjoying A LOT the long campaign with the Iulii family.
The engine is maybe a bit outdated, but it's extr fun nonetheless.
I'm playing vanilla for now, after ending the first campaign I'll try some mods.

Kicking Gauls' asses around while conquering my home town and making it faction capital: PRICELESS.

So, having got all the TW games, should I even bother playing Empire without mods? Seems the main two are Empire Realism and DarthMod, which one should I pick?

What about Napoleon, does it need mods or is it playable as is?

I don't see any reason to play vanilla Empire with Darthmod already polished (I did it, and never went back once I'd upgraded).  There is a Darthmod for Napoleon that looks worthwhile, but I haven't moved past Empire yet.
