I don't really know who I'd like to beat, but I would beat someone as the Germans. Maybe I'll start with the French, then move to English.

lol Football : Total War would by rather strange.

Anyway, i'd love to kick the Mongol hordes away from my fave county Lithuania, how dare they invade it! I'd also love to kick some French and German ass, apart from I have't got the demo http://www.totalwar.org/ubb/frown.gif so I don't know how I'd whip the hell out of them. also, I'm lazy, France and Germany are quite near so there's a reason.

Two points

1/ It is football, always has been football, and always will be football. That is why is is called the football world cup, and yes, there are more than one nation that plays in it. Not like the world series. A world series of one. Now that is off my chest.

2/ I will play as England. And I will retake what is ours. France will once again be part of a single empire. The true rulers will once again lay claim to the land and rule it with an iron first.

hmm - I dunno - France is full of french people now, i mean, would we want em?

... and if "Briton" was returned to the Britons - then we'd all be sppeaking welsh - coz the anglo-saxons certainly aint Britons.

Diolch-yn-fawr, Creoso i Cymru!

My all-time favourite is actually to destroy the papacy followed by the spanish... its a sheer joy to watch huge english fleets off the shores of spain, as opposed to huge fishing fleets of spanish trawlers off the coast of england catching our fish, whilst the english subsidise THEIR ships to do so and our fleet is amde tos tay at home because...

(dont get me going... bloody EU, Britain isnt part of europe, never will be, there's a darn good reason theres this thing called the English Channel and it isnt natural - we DUG IT! (lolol))

seeing as the game was actually invented in england....and was named FOOTBALL i think it should be called football. SOCCER is just another stupid way that the americans try to make them selves more unique from the rest of the world. you may call the sport you invented "football" (american football) however this is very strange as for 99% of the game you actually use your hands. this would be like us calling our football something like "headball".....strange i know....but then there american http://www.totalwar.org/ubb/wink.gif

How old is Football (American) and how old is Football(the one where you actually use your foot)?

I'd like to beat up on anyone who wants to mess with Germans (Proud of my Bavarian heretage, Check the last name).

Hmmm, I guess I get to be the first one to champion the Danes and go "i viking" around Europe, maybe provide that emperor guy in Byzantium a few Varangians for his guard . . . sack a few of those newly installed French speaking guys in England (yah, the ones who used to be vikings themselves) . . . and they told you the age of vikings ended when Harald Hardraada got his butt kicked out of Yorkshire by Godwine *evil chuckle*

Todays football was invented in England about whoping 200 years ago. But in the world it did not cath up for another 70-80 years. However, new facts show that its predecessor came from South Africa, where local tribes played a similar game with similar rules. Instead of the ball they used heads of the dead enemies wrapped into the bags. This was game/ritual that selebrated the victory.
American football was invented and first played by US millitary about 80-90 years ago. I can't remember the official date when it became registered sport (my memory failed me again). Also, American football derived from from one of my favourite sports, Rugby

I would love to play as Germans and kick some Papal ass. Also I will choose Russians and slap silly Turks. My third choose is Mongols VS The World.

Well, if I should play as Germany I will head east and civilize chunks of Poland and Russia. I guess this will be the direction where the most can be gained for us. Hehe I don't think Stalingrad is among the provinces, or ist it?

However. I will not start playing as Germany. From what has been stated it seems to be not so much of a challenge. I find Italy, Spain and Turkey quite interesting. I quite like the idea of a Mediterranean Empire.

Bte, concerning battering people.. Something I liked about another game (Lords of the Realm II), was the way you could "punish" provinces by virtually eradicating them. You had to conquer them, then impose crazy taxes and sell all their cows and grain for gold. This would result in a famine, population would sink and there would be many peasant revolts (that were fun to be easily beaten in a battle with experienced troops). In the end there would be nothing but scorched earth remaining. Also it was very funny that you saw fires in that province and the mob would shout and often by accident attack other countries armies (and get beaten).

Do you think it would be cool if this was also possible in TW??
