There are so many rumours and untested facts. For example: Nobody really knows if the BI or Alex Ki on the stratmap is doing more naval invasions or not. No studies have been made.

Another point is Vanilla bashing. Yes of course, if you want a historical mod with a lot of units EB is better than Vanilla. No doubt. But Vanilla has a completly different target. Please dont forget that. And there are things like naval invasions and aggressive KI, that works better in Vanilla as in EB.

I also prefer EB over Vanilla(Like anybody in this forum, but please stop feeling so elite...), but seeing everything black/white and making EB a god and Vanilla a devil is not constructive.
And now, if anybody has a study about the naval invasion please post it
Agree! I like Vanilla RTW as much as EB. It's for me a totally different fun to play, and I don't play them as the same game! How i like to see dozens of guys flying after contact of a heavy cav. charge! oe the Lorica Segmentata of the late legionnaries, men, they're cool and he only reason I played as Roman! or the middle kingdom army of the Egypt kingdom... of corse, it's ahistorical, but they're damn cool!

seienchin's right! stop bashing!
