I've seen this diary at Spot. a few days ago. It's old i agree but i just want to confirm this information about larger battlefields.

Is this info true or confirmed by CA itself?

TB666 says its true but i think that an official confirmation about it'd be better.

Gamespot says we'll play at larger battlefields.

So, what do you say CA?

We do or we do not?:bow:

Well I think the battlefields in the demo are a little larger than the Rome ones, but it is a little hard to tell as they are so packed full of stuff (hills, trees, builds, etc..)

Agincourt seems a quite a bit bigger than the Rome ones and because units move more slowly it is effectivly a lot bigger. I don't know but I would guess becuase of the decrease in speed and increase in map size on a plain empty map it'll take 50% longer to cross from one side to the other. That is just a guess though.
