Glad to see the outbreak of love in the forum, apologies if the following has been covered but I can't read all the threads.


I'd like a short statement about what the org's relationship with CA (both ideally and in reality) for everyone to chew over. I understand that this is an independent website with no official links (despite the work on the patches) but there seems to be a lot of anxiety about the overlap between publicizng and promoting MTW. Since this website is actually called total war we obviously have a lot invested in the quality (more even than the success!) of a game which we aren't really able to judge properly yet, and this seems to be one cause of the tensions here. If MTW did somehow turn out to be a miserable failure (through bugs or whatever) would the org stick with the series, become a vehicle for other games, or just subside after a while?

The Org is a fansite, made by fans for fans. That's clear. We are a Total War fansite and have of course no plans whatsoever to become a vehicle of another game series.

Our aim is to enhance the Total War community by giving it forums, custom files, news, tournaments and others. The formula worked till now I think. CA don't have much of a close relationship with us...all we ever had was publicity on .COM over other fansites (which we deserved) and some screenshots.
