wait a minute this is gold right?

ive had this game for pc forever and i was more than pleased to see it came out for mac.
things i liked
- the game is awesome
- hasnt changed from original
- makes time fly

things to look out for
- when it first downloads it crashes alot
- battles with alot of people can be extremely slow
- even after awhile the game sometimes refuses to open saved games!!!! (most irritating considering ive spent alot of time on the campaign)

heres my main issue.
the game is "Rome total war GOLD EDITION" and yet i find no way to open barbarian invasion?!
even after checking the support page i found no help and while the game was good it was a bit of a rip off

not too pleased
still gets 4 stars cuz i love the game
