    I found at the site of RealtimeUK an "internal Samurai character animation project", this studio made the last intro for CA's Napoleon: TW.

    Great find. This video just gave us information on the heroes - there WILL BE duels with Heroes. And that was a vid for them. I'm 99% sure.

    Wooo
    Love the vid.

    Been to:

    Swords Made of Letters - 1938. The war is looming in France - and Alexandre Reythier does not have much time left to protect his country. A novel set before the war.

    A Painted Shield of Honour - 1313. Templar Knights in France are in grave danger. Can they be saved?

    Very nice vid and great find. It seems that we will get duel movies like we have now at least. Good show on CA's part. And a well done vid from RealTime UK.

    I'd still love to see some of the old assassination vids come back. I liked the one with the tricked out cart and spear. You never knew till the spear shot out of the handle of the cart if the enemy target was going to dodge it or catch a spear to the guts.

    Ah, are we allowed to post the assassination clips from STW?

    This animation looks like one hero/general attempted to initiate a duel with another and ended up losing. How the one in black seems to try to walk away or avoid it only makes sense in that light. Although the dueling aspect of samurai warfare ended around the first Mongol Invasion I'm okay with this if it opens up new strategic elements, like having an enemy army's morale drop if it's commander or hero refuses or loses a duel, although the effects of refusal should be complex. I also hope the stat for success in single duels is based off how many men your hero or general has actually killed in combat and duels and not his command stars. Otherwise it's going to be very easy to exploit this, not to mention commanding an army doesn't have anything to do with fighting one-on-one.
