Regarding the ramps, if the ball doesn't make it up and is heading to the middle, try a sort of slap save, though it's not really a slap save - hit one flipper then immediately the other. The game seems to let you save a ball this way even when I don't think it should.

Rome is definitely one if least favorite games in the set. It often feels like a chore. I just want to get the garrisons achievement and then I'll be done with it. FYI, on the xbox forums it was noted that you can complete that achievement by doing tge same garrison over and over - it doesn't have to be all of them.
