Here's a question I haven't heard answered yet (or even asked yet, for that matter) It's been bantered about both here and on the .com when the game is gonna come out in the US, in England, and everywhere else . . . what I want to know (assuming that SOMEBODY reading this has any idea) is what are the major differences between, especially the American and UK versions of the game? (and when they'll be on the shelves, of course, if anybody has a solid idea :-P)

LOL . . . it would seem that the answer to my question is a universal "we have no clue" . . . I for one hope that they follow the typical pattern and release it here in the US first (no offense to you folks over there, I'm just selfish that way :-D) . . . I'd still like to know what the differences in the different versions will be, though

Well the US will be first for sure stiupid not to get to the biggest market first, it doesnt matter if the designer is from UK it is where the publisher is from, anyway I hope UK is first coz Australia wont be far behind, hopefully DT look after there home country as well. http://www.totalwar.org/ubb/wink.gif

The UK Version is coming out in a hardwood box, dusted with antiquity, pomp, grace and when you open it it plays a verse or two of shakespeare ... it also has a miniature die-cast model of a longbowmen and billmen butchering a french knight and an advert directing you to the "Keep Britain out of Europe" website.

The American version has a "Britney Spears poster" because the PR guys saw that Brittany was in it...and figured "those stupid limmies cant even spell her name"...
