@Sir Grotius:
Regarding 2), I really don't see a reason for this or do you also think that Medieval TW, should have been called Shogun 2 TW just because it used the same engine? Of course the campaign map similarities between Rome and Medieval 2 are a bit more obvious, because both of the games are set in Europe but I still don't see any point for arguments such as these.
Cheers!

Though we did use STW 1.5 as another name for MTW at the time.. :2thumbsup:Quote:

They could at least make the "defeated" heretic priest fade away, instead of keeping the animation whereby it looks like someone's buried a knife in his back. ~;)Quote:

Might even replace it with the heretic going up in flames and crumbling to ashes!!! :2thumbsup:
The funny thing I noticed in this preview video how unrelated the Campaign and Strategical Map are yet. Or better, which factions are finished and which aren't. When the guy attacks with his Spanish army, he goes to a Moorish general icon on the campaign map. On the battlefield he is fighting against a French army though. When the Turks attack the besieged Byzantine town they fight against an English army afterwards.
Really hadn't noticed this until now, so I guess I can't blame CA, because I've watched the vidoe like 10 times before noticing it. :idea2:

Nah I noticed it allready. And it's nod due to unfinishedness. They just croped and inserted thet clip about fighting. To prove this. You didn't see that page about army stats and strenghts poping up before battle? No you didn't see it. Because those are not the battles started. Further more that army attacking those Myslims (Moores right?) has no Cannons on turn based map, but in the battle they suddenly get them. Also they have less calivary and such. So no it's not the battle we see in the video.Quote:

Those armies were defenitely in the late era of units.. conquistadores, cannons, janissaries, etc.
Yes, I know why they did it and everything, it's just that I've only really paid attention to it the last time I watched and found it really funny that they replaced the enemy in every battle shown.
Just so you don't think I'm stupid or something. :idea2:
Well I if you now comprehend that those battles shown in trailer are NOT the battles that were started on campaign map, then I think not.
