Zooming Question

[Sho Pi]

Ok, this may be a dumb question, sorry I'm a newbie, just purchased the game two days ago, but I read somewhere you could zoom in closer to the units, I haven't been able to figure out how this is possible yet if it is, I know from some of the screenshots it looks like you can, but no look...so any help would be greatly appreciated.

Also just a quick question, As a starter I've been playing in the easiest mode, just wondering if the advanced modes gives you more options on what you can do, or if it just bumps up the AI?

Thanks in advance.

You can zoom closer with the -+*/ buttons mate try em all :P
I do not use it mate because you look view distance and you can have yer camera too close on the ground and you won't be able to see what is happening thus you will need to turn the camera all the time. Stay with what you have mate http://www.totalwar.org/ubb/smile.gif

Don't use only honour, use theforce, too.

you can also zoom on the campaign map with the numberpad 1 and 3 keys.

Press the right button and all your soldiers wear red and blue striped shirts...

Moving *really* close (as in to see the white in the soldiers' eyes http://www.totalwar.org/ubb/smile.gif), as some "screenshots" seem to depict, isn't really possible. They're just concept art. If that's what you meant.

As for the harder difficulty levels, they're only more difficult, not more complex. The game is the same, the AI is just better.

zooming in won't be visually pleasing as the soldiers are just simple sprites and cartoonish... not 3d
