I just played the demo for R:TW. That was a lot of fun. I loved wathcing the Roman bodies fly as my Cartheginian elephants rampaged through their lines.

Christianity: The belief that a cosmic Jewish Zombie who was his own father can make you live forever if you symbolically eat his flesh and telepathically tell him you accept him as your master, so he can remove an evil force from your soul that is present in humanity because a rib-woman was convinced by a talking snake to eat from a magical tree... -
I've installed and uninstalled Rome TW 3 times now. It just doesn't inspire me to play just one more turn like the other Total War titles and C3C.
The campaign map plays out like C3C, but I think C3C has the better UI. Playing on the campaign map is basically like playing a C3C game on a large (or maybe huge) map set only during the ancient age with domination as the only way to win. With the differences being that the graphics are better, you're moving actual armies around the map and not C3C units,you can set ambushes, there are no workers to manage, there are no worries about production since everything takes the same amount to time to build, and a host of others I'm sure.
Of course the big difference is RTW's battle engine. The graphics are great and the battles look great, but there seems to be a lot more battles per turn than the earlier Total War games and I personally got tired of them pretty quickly.
But don't take my word for it:
The best place to go for info is the forum at The Org. Lots of total war fans that will answer any question you have about the game.
