Is there a place I can go to get info on downloading patches etc, and what they do? I bought the game about a month after it came out, and havn't downloaded a single patch or anything for it (mainly because I'm always hesitant it will replace my saved games etc.) I'm not in the middle of anything now though so I'd like to update if possible.

Thanks

I cannot help you with the patch for the original MTW, but I do have the readme of the VI patch


General Fixes
-------------
- Fixed a bug where cavalry would receive a charge bonus ad infinitum under certain circumstances.
- Removed a command line cheat that would unlock the camera giving an unfair advantage on the battlefield.

Single Player Fixes
------------------
- Reinforcements in campaign battles now appear in the order selected in the pre-battle screen.
- Kings will no longer die of old age at exactly 56 years.

Multiplayer Fixes
-----------------
- All multiplayer players will now appear in the Medieval: Total War chat room and can talk to one another. Please note that Medieval: Total War games will not show up for Viking Invasion players and vice versa.
- The occasional crash/lockup bug when a player quits from a multiplayer game has been eradicated.


(Readme2_01 from VI)

There isn't any reference to saved games, so you can download this patch without having to fear for your those.

MTW Battle collection: it contains MTW and VI. But it wasn't fully patched when I bought it two months ago.
