I watched the whole thing and really liked it, especially the camera work, did you use a custom program for the camera movements? Because it looks way too smooth to be by hand. I do have a couple of quips, however:
The camera clips through models multiple times, although I don't think there's really much you can do to help that.
When the Generals charge in to help the change of shot and music seems a bit abrupt.
Other than that I thought it was great!

Thanks. Now to answer a few of your questions.
1. I didn't use a custom program to get the edits, I used the in-game movie cam to get the shots. You get it by adding an extension at the end of the RomeTW shortcut. It's a powerful, but time consuming feature that I'm very happy they included. I did however, use Sony Vegas to edit the clips together, add the contrast, and add the music and titles of course.
2. The camera clipping is annoying, but is VERY hard to avoid. I could have had no clipping by keeping the camera above the action, but in this particular video I wanted to get as close as I could get.
3. It's funny you should mention that. I was hung on this for a while actually, trying to decide a good track for the transition. I really couldn't find a good track, so I settled for what is there. In hindsight I should've included shots where the generals approach the melee instead of just abruptly cutting to them charging.
Thanks for the comment, much appreciated.
That was really good
the voice acting was pretty bad
