Yey. No more fight 10 minute battle then fight 90 minute battle then 20 minute battle then 70 minute battle then your army of 900 is assaulting a fort with 5 enemy left then click command the attack personally then MEDIEVAL HAS CAUSED A FATAL EXCEPTION ERROR. #$@^@#^@@

I've had this happen quite a few times already. Right now, I refrain from attacking more than one province per turn if one of them is a big battle. I also generally avoid attacking more than 2 provinces in a single turn.

This means that an AAR can be sent from general to general, making a rudimentary cooperative campaign.

mmmh, sounds like I might try to find it in England. Eurostar rules. I did not think to buy it as it won't be available in France(message from CA to french websites). But THAT is a big progress.

OK, everyone has said it all already, but the save between batles feature that the screenshot implies is *really* big news for me: it's one of the reasons I'm not playing much anymore, because I'm afraid of how much time I'll be locked at the computer to deal with a series of battles. When you are racing against excommunication, you need to crush those goddammed French from every direction.

Well, actually it's a pretty useful tactic to attack along a series of provinces to advance the "front" is very useful in many situations.

I'll have fun playing the viking campaign, but I'll be even more keen to buy just for thsi feature. Shame it couldn't come in the form of a patch ...

I'll enjoy the viking campaign but i'll enjoy more the old campaign improved in the expansion with the battle deployment feature, the new factions playable, the new units, the fire arrows, the boiled oil in sieges, the bugs fixed, etc, etc.

I want the expansion now http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif
