Have we seen these VI screenies?

VI screenies?
As far as i can see there isn't a single new unit shown in those 3 shots at the top.

[chilling]

But the English are giving the Scottish a hiding. What more do you want? Oooops

[LeeJackson]

thoes look like MTW screens. I don't think Chvirlaic (sp) knights will been in Viking part of the expasion.

[Kongamato]

It appears that a poleaxe unit will be included for the Saxons(red). It may have the CFK sprites just to make the gameplay look complete. Remember those Byzantine Lancers I found disguised as Mercians?

Another thing of note is that the Scots get a pike-esque unit, no doubt influenced by stories of the schiltron. I also saw a Jav unit in the Scottish army too.

Oh and about the Chiv Knights... I think those are Royal Knights, but their image seems to be more like High royals than Earlies. Interesting.

Oh and also another possible option for this:

What if the Scots/Irish/Mercians/Northumbrians rebel in the normal game? Will they have their faction's Viking Era colors, and possibly some units?

[Surprise]

I think its totally bogus
wtf
it looks like the battle of stamford bridge haha

[LeeJackson]

what pole axe unit?

[ShadesWolf]

I also believe it is stamford bridge historic battle, or maybe some other historic england/ Scotland battle.

Which comes as part of the VI package.

[ShadesWolf]

Boats anybody?

the screens are bogus.

[ShadesWolf]

I knew it was some type of bridge

[Dîn-Heru]

yes, that is the battle of stirling bridge.

[A Nerd]

Roman screenies are more impressive

[Asmodeus]

Wasnt Stamford Bridge the battle King Harold fought against the Vikings shortly before the ill fated Battle of Hastings? The Normans had allied with the Vikings against the Anglo Saxons if I remember rightly.

Or maybe I just dreamt it
