    Thumbs up The Screenshots Thread

    Well, with the impending release of the demo and the game in two weeks, I think the forum could use a thread like this for all of us to start posting our funny, serious, victorious or inglorious screenshots of our campaigns.

    So lets start populating this thread with some of your demo screenshots!

    Exclamation Re: The Screenshots Thread

    Demo ain't coming out for 6 1/2 hours. Just gotta find a way to kill that time. It's dark and scary outside, so that's out of the question. Everyone is asleep. For my part, sleep is merely a distraction, so......

    Sounds like a good idea for a thread, and prevents people from posting a million different threads each containing one screenshot. I'll sticky it once we get some real material in here.

    Do those sinking ships actualy sink or just stay on their side for the rest of the match?
    Being better than the worst does not inherently make you good. But being better than the rest lets you brag.

    Good Question, ehm I think they slowly sank but i didn't really pay attention I tried to board the other ships.

    And my first try at the land battle..



    I could have done better but I forgot the troops on the other side (I was attacking from two directions).

    The following is on LOW settings, as many noted the demo runs rather slow for some reason. I put the settings to Low and I updated my Direct X which came with the demo, it seemed to help a bit.

    I have a question..

    Mailman653 - Pic 3, is that the General in the middle of the picture?
    If so then do the generals ride in the middle of the unit or just like in previous games on the left side of the unit?
    If it's like in previous games the it should be very easy to kill those generals in battle!

    You also need to purchase a small freezer for storage of your pepsi.
    It runs on batteries. You'll need a few.
    Uhh, I guess I won't have pepsi then. Do you have change for a twenty?

    Is it just me or are the majority of screenshots in this thread set to medium or low graphics?

    I guess not many people have a PC powerful enough to run it. Which is a shame because it looks extremely good on high.

    Plus it has a setting for Ultra. Ultra. Who wouldn't want to set their graphics to Ultra?

    Mine are on high, with grass and shadows off.

    Some say that the game will be much better than the demo in performance. I hope so.

    Well, I tried the custom settings for graphics and it only let me set them to medium in most cases. (It didn't show an option for anything higher.)

    I like it alot, after three hours play I was only at 1705. The campaign I have played so far has been alot of fun, the system is much better than previous editions. With regards to battles the game is very impressive aswell, I have been playing on normal mode and the AI is quite challenging.
