I knew I'd forget a few things, so I'll try to keep this up to date with known issues.

1) Cutscene captions are not in sync yet. For the most part they are just lumped at the beginning of the scene.

2) Graphic configuration options should be avoided for now. We haven't thoroughly tested all of the various graphical configurations and so, with the exception of resolution and windowed mode, we recommend leaving them at the default levels. If your settings get corrupted, try deleting the settings.xml file in "user/app data/roaming/longbow digital arts/hegemony rome" folder.

3) Only 64 bit mode is currently supported. All of the initial testers chosen reported they were using 64 bit machines so this shouldn't be an issue.

4) The game frequently crashes on exit.

5) Alt-tabbing out of fullscreen mode is currently unstable and should be avoided. This may result in a crash or graphical corruption.

Thanks for the feedback on the tooltip. There are a number of things we could do to improve that. Most tooltips usually have a delay before they appear which might help soften the "shock" when they appear. We also had an idea awhile ago about opening them in stages so that just the title bar and stats appear first and then if you continue to hold the mouse over it expands to show the body text and details.
