Hm, does it have a map editor? I've been looking for something that can create BM-style maps for a long time now...
I think Rome Total War was the last game in the epic series to have a full set of mod tools. (SEGA have recently confirmed that Mod Tools will not be made available and that the game coding will be made harder to actually stop Modders cos of DLC. TW:S2 may be the last one I buy
)
