Rome is just fine. Legions are actually one of the few Swords units actually worth using, and Ballistas are very powerful too. 30 strength vs cities is very powerful at that point in the game.
You aren't "forced" to spam buildings. You can build the important ones that you'll should build anyway like the Library, Granary, Water Mill, etc. If you're "spamming" buildings you're probably building stuff that you don't need in every city anyway.
I played Rome a ton. They indeed need a change.
UA needs a change, because as it is currently it only fits in some games.
Say you have a game where your capital is MUCH better off as a military spammer or wonder spammer, no you are forced to spam buildings to use the UA.
Why not just make it like every city connected to Rome gets +25% production to buildings period.
That way you can play your capital in different ways, and it even synergizes with the Legion road-building.
