FEATURES
Vae Victis is the expansion for the Grand Strategy title Europa Universalis Rome
- The dynamics of the characters that live in the Republic will come to life
as the men and women have their own personal goals and agendas, which are
often in conflict with each other. Will you be able to manage these wilful
personalities? - As a Republic you will now need to take the Senate into the account.
Characters will belong to various parties depending on their goals, values
and ambition. The Senate will pass laws, which will allow or disallow
certain country actions. - Making sure that the party in power backs your own goals, adds another
strategic element to game play. - Monarchies and Tribes will have their own courts, beware of bootlickers
and sycophants who will stop at nothing to replace your divinely appointed
ruler with themselves. - "Carthago Delenda Est". Senators will cry out and charge players to perform
their duties. Now the Senate or a religious power can give players missions
to fulfil, guiding the player through ambitions to experience a rich and
rewarding history. - Mobilize the Senate to back important laws such as 'Lex Gabinia' to fight
piracy or the 'Lex Acilia Repetundarum' to reduce corruption. Players can
also enact decisions at various levels, working with regional governors to
grant citizenships to a region or a province. - Completely revised military AI, particularly in the area of military
campaigns. Will benefit experienced players in particular. - An overhauled interface making the information more easily accessible for
both new and advanced players.

As with most Paradox games the expansion is a must. Vae Victis adds so much too the game that it should have been a seperate game. The way characters work has been done over and the game gets a whole new "feel" to it. Beside being able to rule the biggest (and smallest) countries in the time periode, you are now in charge for making sure they dont crumbel from the inside. Gave me many good singel player games, but when it gets to multiplayer this game becomes a little lacing, it is a good setup for the multiplayer and all, but it is no one/very few that plays this game on multiplayer.

I simply love this add on. Now there is great domestic policy build in EU Rome Vae Victis that combine elements from Crusader Kings and EU 3. With this add on you really need to think who you appoint to do what in your country. Do you choose trustworthy idiot to lead your armies and make your empire more vulnerable against enemies or military mastermind who could rebel? How you get rid of potential trouble makers without being too hard as it could ruin leader popularity and support? Now it is not written in stone that all goes your way all time and it adds more challenge to the game. I have played Vae Victis hours and I strongly recommend this is you like EU Rome. I still want to play this as re-playability is very great in this add on. I think EU Rome with Vae Victis is one of the best Paradox title ever.

Although not as deep as HoI of EU3:IN, this game is one of my favourites amongst Pdox games. The setting is appealing, the characters and government system are original and immersive and the effort needed to keep your country together and fend off populist demagogues, ambitious corrupt governors or courtiers and civil-war-loving generals certainly gives the correct historical feeling.
It could use a bit more depth in warfare systems (there is no cultural unit evolution as in EU3, despite the important changes in warfare doctrines in the games timeframe), but overall it's a quite enjoyable experience that has an unique feel compared to other games.

Rome with the Vae Victis expension is a very nice game, cannot exactly say what was added compared to Rome since I never played it by itself. But too me the game is like a mix between EU3 and Crusaders king.
Only trouble with it is that right now there is a game crashing bug on some system, so be sure to turn on auto save to be at least every year until your sure the game doesn't crash on your system. But even through there is this bug I still give it 5 star since I cannot give 4 1/2.

This add-on creates a whole new element of strategy to the original Europa Universalis: Rome. It allows for the opportunity to manipulate (and get manipulated by) the political intrigue within your own nation. You can grant titles, adjust your succession, imprison and/or execute dissenters, and enact new laws for your realm. The add-on also includes a mission system that allows for a more regimented, but still open, gaming experience. These features, along with the bug fixes that the game provides, make this expansion a must-have for owners of the original game. The price is reasonable for the extra content.

Vae Victis is the first expansion for Rome and adds a lot more to the gameplay and cleans up the UI. It takes a couple of features from EU3:IN and adapts them well for Rome those being the Decision/Mission systems.
It also adds the Politics system which adds a lot more to state management and can make ruling the nation a challange or easier if things go your way. Democracy as a whole is vastly improved by the changes.
This is a vast improvement over Rome which was not one of Paradox's better attempts, but together they are an excellent purchase and will provide entertainment for a long time to come.

EU: Rome will probably never be perfect. Vae Victis, however, vastly improves the core game, cutting out a lot of the parts that weren't fun about the original (extreme micromanagement, a feeling that anyone outside the Mediterranean rim is just a speed bump rather than a playable faction) and adding a lot of the improvements that In Nomine made to EU3. If this and the core game were a sixty-dollar full-price product I'd have trouble recommending it, but GamersGate is selling EU:Rome plus the expansion for only $24.95, and at that price it's a steal. 4 stars out of 5, there's much better from Paradox but not much better from anyone else.

The expansion adds much flavor to the game however the game is lengthy and can take much simulating. I find it to be very ridiculous how the rebels can come up with vast units in a short time making it impossible to defend and compete.

These 9 MB make all the difference. Through a number of clever changes, Vae Victis adds depth to characters and domestic politics.

Vae Victis enhances Rome greatly. Less micromanagement, more character interactions and political parties that will help and hinder your goals. A must have expansion.

Vae Victis greatly improves Rome, and adds a lot of features, that I presonally wanted to see in the game. The characters are dynamic now, and the missions, and laws really add a lot of flavor to the game! I'm really glad Paradox didn't give up on Rome, and they made it become the great game it is now!
