    I say work on the mod for M2TW while continuing to update the demo so we can help debug the combat system. If Empires turns out to be very moddable and good for transfering over... go for it! I've been waiting way to looong for this mod to just give out. At least we'll get a demo!!! You guys are doing awesome work keep it up

    All us men suffer in equal parts, it's our lot in life, and no man goes without a broken heart or a lost love. Like holding your dog as he takes his last breath and dies in your arms, it's a rite of passage. Unavoidable. And honestly, I can't imagine life without that depth of feeling.-Bierut

    Hey, i've been with this mod from the absolute start, even if I have not posted much recently, (and all regards to people keeping the mod alive in its darkest hours, not to mention months) i have keept a eye on the mod from time to time.
    This anoncement of demo-out the work and transfer the idea to empire, I think is a good one. The mod have basicly been dead for half a year, and need a good and propper kickstart.. An all new start on Empire might just do the trick. So im all for a Empire mod, If the modders are ready to start all over again.

    I think all depends on what the moders can do with this.

    If they feel that Empire:total war is the best engine to recreate the world of warhammer, and they're up to the challenge, well, go for it!

    We, the fans, just want a great game, personally I'm really amazed with what the members of this team have accomplished, the models are great, I just can wait another minute to play the demo. So if they can facilitate us a better game switching to Empire, that's the way this mod should take.

    I really hope this doesn't means hours and hours of hard work going to the trash, hopefully, all you guys have already done, will be introduced in the empire mod.

    Best of lucks with the mod!

    We still have Alletun and Krazy, they are enough of a dream team for me :) But sure, it would have been awesome if quadrille joined, but I don't think that'll happen.

    If anything, there will be a better melee system in ETW. I can't see why they would throw away something that already is working.
    My guess is also that most things will be rather similar, code and modding-wise between MTW2 and ETW, so a port over to ETW won't be that hard. (although tedious?)

    Gunpowder units will probably work better in ETW aswell, and sea combat with Warhammer naval units would be awesome, assuming an army of trained monkeys would volunteer to make all the different ships, quite an undertaking.

    By the way, do anyone know if the graphics for all units will have to be redone for a port, or can MTW2 units be ported right away? (same .format etc)

    Most likely, the models will require minor tweaking and possibly re-rigging, which isn't too hard to do. Possibly it will be similar to porting RTW to M2TW, but, that's entirely speculation right now.
