Hello it's been awhile since i logged in and this was before Medieval Total War came out,but i have some things to say.First i'm very pleased with Medieval Total War i really like laying siege to a castle,the first time i did it i was quite impressed.Also the troop types two units the Swiss Armored Pikemen and Gothic Knights are quite tough.I had this one battle which i fought for a friend of mine.In this battle he was fighting the Pope now the Pope's army had 1,700 men,while my friend had 3,200 so we decided to fight this one out.The Pope's army had many Royal Knights and other good stuff,while my friend's army had Swiss Armored Pikemen,Gothic Knight's,Gothic Sargents and other units.So after we set up our army and began it was bloody and brutal(for the Pope&#33http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cgi/emoticons/wink.gif.When the battle was over my friend lost 130 men but the Pope had 511 men captured and 998 men killed.To date this has been the biggest and longest battle i've played so far.I can't wait for the Viking expansion and Rome Total War,i can only wish for a Napoleonic Total War game to be done sometime in the future but i hope it will come true.Anyway i'll keep checking back on a regular basis and hope these games will last for a long time.

Thanks
