A quick look makes me think anything that ran Rome Total War on the high end will far with this.
Dartzap, your PC will run this...on medium, as will mine. As will Tychos mega PC.

Great improved, but I would prefer a git more gritty feel. More shadows, though of course that could drive the computer mad.

10,000 soldiers on screen at a time AND you can elect your own pope! I think that now is a good time to upgrade BIGTIME.

Battlefields probably won't change too much from Rome. But I'm looking forward to the glory of all the other things that it looks like you'll be able to do with religion, merchants, and diplomacy.
And adding crusades is always a good thing.

Not to mention individualized soldiers in each unit, and mud and blood stains accumulating on clothing and armor as the battle progresses. I just hope that "fully destructable" means that the walls can be damaged everywhere, not just in the middle of a segment.

Between this and Supreme Commander, I am going to need a big upgrade.

Personally, I'd like to do some pillaging myself. Maybe have people in the streets (after I set fire to their houses of course)!
