They should call it Rome III.

This sounds really good but I'd like to know more about the politics side and how the player interfaces with it. Some of the changes to faction buldings and bonuses should translate to clearer and more meaningful decisions for the player - e.g. streamlining eastern recruitment to 2 (inf + cav) trees rather than 3 (inf + light + cav) and increasing the horse peoples' ammo (so you don't have to replay each battle).

If this proves to be everything it promises, will it be enough to salvage perceptions of the TW franchise and CA's reputation?

I like the idea

I believe you can get a lot of ammo for archers and horse archers with various technologies and maybe temples or industrial buildings. I have not played Eastern factions yet, maybe I should give it a whirl.

Yup, I read that now nomadic factions can get basically endless ammo, which solves the problem of them running out for large battles.

I don't know why they're acting like the patches and free content is a package. That's nothing special. I'm glad we're getting a free campaign. The building and politics system really needs completely scrapped and redone, but tweaking it is better than nothing I guess.
