Advantages: Better tanks and weapons, more factions, more maps

Disadvantages: doesn't change the core gameplay much

Battlefield 1942 has made a huge impact on my gaming life. I think it was probably the most value for money I have got from any game, including those big MMO's. When I saw this coming I had to buy it. Basically BF 1942 gives you access to 64 man battlefields online and a huge range of weapons and vehicles to use.

Road to Rome adds even more awesome maps to the series and includes a new faction or two to play. The big draw is the beefing up of classic battlefield weapons and armor. Like the tanks now can have rockets attached, and there is super heavy tanks now. Infantry can't really easily kill one.

Germans and the Italians really have improved weapons and AI abilities. The online experience is really good and you have plenty of unique and new maps with this expansion. I highly recommend this series.

Summary: Buy this
