    Heavily scripted by the looks of it. But what I am wondering about if the units, buildings, athmopshere and details are more or less historically correct?

    The graphics are surely very nice.

    I am particularly intrigued by the "tactical view" shown at around 4:50.
    Even though they say that you are not supposed to control the battle from there, I expect that I will be spending about half my battle time in that view.

    I like the new camera. Much more fluid and intuitive, it doesn't feel like the game is trying to annoy you with it. That bird's eye view a-la CAESAR III is awesome indeed. I think I'll have to upgrade my Nvidia GTX-570 to something more modern when R3 comes out.
    The art of war, then, is governed by five constant
    factors, to be taken into account in one's deliberations,
    when seeking to determine the conditions obtaining in the field.

    These are: (1) The Moral Law; (2) Heaven; (3) Earth;
    (4) The Commander; (5) Method and discipline.

    In 7:56 you can see a small pathfiding problem? If you look at the right side of the video you can see a long line of Carthaginian troops running. And it reminds me some pathfinding issues from previous games.

    Also, what's with all the Iberians?

    It's early days yet so I won't start criticizing things but an awful lot of those Romans seem to be wearing bronze cuirasses... Not a pectorale in sight.
    EBII has finally released. All hail the EBII team!
