Empire Total War Summary Thread Mk. 2

Just a small addition to the Ministers and the government types. If you have a Monarchy you alone appoint your Ministers, only in a Constitutional Monarchy and Republic will the Ministers be voted upon. At least that's what I gathered from an article I read in a games magazine.

Aside from that, great work! I know how much work it is!

Im thinking they still will have the US as a faction in the main campaign. I remember seeing in the campaign trailer the little map in the bottom left hand corner and it was showing North America and I remember seeing both red and blue. They might have been showing the road to independence but it was on the campaign trailer. Then again the blue could be any faction. Eh I am probably wrong but I really hope Im not. I would love to play as the US in the big campaign right away.

The popular theory is that the dark blue that can be seen in North America on the mini-map is a Native American faction, probably the Iroqouis. The red is of course Britain.

Then again, that's just guesswork based on available facts. It could be totally wrong.

That stinks I really want to play as the US in the main campaign and not just the road to independence.

You'll be able to. After you complete the Road to Independance campaign it continues into the normal campaign, with you playing as the US.

It may also be the case that you can play as the US if you are playing as Britian and they rebel against you.
