According to my understanding the game will begin about 1095 AD, about the beginning of the Crusades. Well, I really want to play the Byzantines and by that time their best days were over http://www.totalwar.org/ubb/frown.gif They lost the heart of their empire at Manzikert in 1074 (or was that 1071?). I really like a least one scenario/campaign to start about 1025 when the empire was at it's height of power stretched from the Balkans into Syria, Mesopotamia and the Transcaucasus. It'd be fun trying to try and keep the medieval Roman Emipire alive and change history.

Hope Creative is listening/reading.

Byzantins for me, too. They were a great empire mate but having that amount of land under your command and being attacked from so many enemies when you can't last for long. Byzantine empire is a mix of Roman and Greek empire.
Will ancient Greek will be a language in the game?!

Well by the sounds of things the game is that far down the line that anything that isn't in it it now probably won't be. that's not to say they couldn't have included this as a mini campaign perhaps, and if the troop types are there then provided the game is the same basic set up we should be able to create the scenarios.

Maybe Constantinople will still be around for Crusaders to sack and Turks to bombard.
