TW: allows changing angle of view (use + and - keys on num pad). Does not lift off the ground as much.

I'm pretty sure veteran MTW players will use TW mode, novices would likely go to RTS.
but i rem the in mtw, u cld "lift" off the grd more...gives u a better view of the battlefield and lets u see the big picture. now when u enable total war camera, the camera seems to stick very closely to the units, not much option 4 u to lift off the grd and c everything. mayb temperin with the zoom lines in the perferences txt?
