I also think that the initial release is going to be a lot more complete than the first release of EB I, which was only partly playable. And if you remember from one of the early stela, they are building this one from the ground up.

I get the feeling that EB II is going to be released sooner rather than later, because it seems like a lot has been finished.
I'm certain it'll be out before Rome 2, as well (which itself is being released only in fall-winter 2013, quite some time away).
