I loved the scenes in Shogun and they were lacking in Medieval.
I miss those.....the assassin with the spear shooting cart. That was great!
So, anybody know??

My guess is no - since the 16 minute DVD shows an assasination and it happens right on the Strat. map. I think the cut scenes - while very cool - are also very expensive. Although I do think you get a Senate cut-scene as I have seen a snippit of that. It probably pops up when you are playing a Roman faction and the Senate gets sick of your shenanigans!

My fav cut-scene was when the Ninja missed the Geisha and got a serrated fan in the back of the head for his trouble.

It were very cool ctusenes but at least I got bored of them over the time. The senate senes looked good though.

all cutscenes, no matter how cool, become boring after seeing them for a few hundred times (or much less, most of the time).
It beats the crap out of me why most games don't make this an _optional_ feature, i.e. you can disable/enable them at will. I would see that as mandatory...
and you're right, there probably aren't any cutscenes for assassination at least, but maybe we'll get others; i mean, it wouldn't be exactly fair that the romans get cut scenes (senate), but the others don't just because they don't have a senate

If I recall there are some cut scenes but I believe they signal historic events, like the Marius Reforms.

Shogun had an option to disable cutscenes. It was in the Options menu.

The Mongal General throughing his spear through the ninja was the best.

I hope they have cut scenes for thigns that happen once or twice in a campaign like the Marius reforms or the elimination of a faction (one that you destroy) or a Civil war perhaps. Mainly just things that don't happen a lot like assasinations or a king dying. One for the beginning and end of each of the faction's campaigns would be very nice.

OK I'm done with my rant. I had thought that I seen em all because they were always entertaining and the main reason I'd try to assassinate a daimyo with an assassin was the fact that it took forever to get to the cut scene of a successful attamept. I believ it took me 3 games to do this because it was near impossible to kill a daimyo with just an assassin
