Dick Splash 23 Posted July 18, 2004 Share Posted July 18, 2004 (edited) I read about this ages ago and thought it had already been posted in the forums. Anyway, a new series called 'Decisive Battles' has just aired on the History Channel in the US. It's a combination of re-enactments, expert analysis and RTW animation. According to the director of programming at the HC, the Rome engine was used because it offers "the most realistic three-dimensional characters [of any game engine]".
