This song IS Rome Total War, and no one can change my mind.

[mercenarygundam]

Ceaser Salad with some fried Numidian Chicken and a side of bread and posca.

[Ultraelectromagnetic]

this is still my all-time favorite battle theme among all the Total War games

[igormshbidevisualizacoes]

This always plays when you are in those giant battles that became a entire mess and have to quickly micromanage a lot of units at the same time to win.

This track is a prime example of how a high BPM track can change time perception of Humans.

It is just ca. 3 Minutes long, yet it feels like a 5-7 minutes track when in combat.

[SacredDaturaa]

Melee Cafe has always been my favorite. It starts at a 10 in intensity and then ramps up, and up, and up again. It's nuts.

An absolute classic. Thanks for scoring my childhood, Jeff van Dyck.

The intro video of the original Rome is and always be the most epic battle ever.

[Falpastymonster]

1:36 when the drums started my heart would always be pounding! Never been so engrossed in a game like this one! The music made it magical!

[TheRealAfroRick]

There were literally no bad tracks on this soundtrack... everything was so excellent. I remember having this soundtrack blasting through the house - so many good memories. Brings a tear to the eye.

1:37 "The battle turns to our favor! Press the attack! Leave no enemy standing!"

[Elintasokas]

The synth bass at 1:37 is a great subtle addition.

[CZProtton]

This is a Heroic Victory! Worthy of Roman arms!

[katadromeasgr]

You can almost hear the sound of double-clicks when, pumped from the song, began to spam everywhere trying to stop the enemy lines.

[PixelLife]

This sound track lives rent free in my head and will forever, thanks Van Dyck for the amazing music!

[KB-jigi]

You made my childhood a little better with your music, im 30 now i still listen too your soundtrack every day while going to work it gives me energy for the boring reality.
