Pretty neat, though a little empty compared to the actual game. :P

Nice! But a poor substitute for the actual thing. It's like CA are taunting me

CA seem to finish a lot of their promotional videos with an elephant

The duel on the ship between the 2 captains is epic, i wonder if that happens in the game aswell?

It looked like in-game footage. So it is probably a possibility.

So we have another trailer. Does anyone know if the manual is going to be on the Steam page too?

In the only true gameplay footage (not cinematized) a unit of cavalry charges a full unit of infantry head on and they rout almost immediately.

Trailers are supposed to encourage people to buy the game. Most people, I guess, will be...

Elephants are always the way to end a trailer. Who said they aren't?

Do you think more people will buy it based on live gameplay or cinematics?

World of Warcraft case in point

It may be cinematised but it's still gameplay just 'filmed' from a different perspective.

Actually reminds me of the Faction Intro's that MTW2 had, where it was gameplay but looked drawn by hand?

I still prefered rome's faction intro's best.
