    I suggest a spot of discussion over the weekend before someone posts up a clearly-marked final list.

    Question: What's the deal with the routing banners?

    ;)

    Seriously though, I would like to ask that.

    Men running into the river, not going over the bridge, have you noted THIS HUGE BUG, and fixed it? If you havent, you best be patching...

    THIS IS THE PROBLEM...

    They don't fall off the bridge, like in STW and MTW if you ordered a unit to cross a bridge you click on the other side, they would line up and cross the bridge, No, no no, here they just run in a straight line and vanish, I've seen it every other game

    And they all die, in medieval they would stack in front of the bridge, apperntly they dont here... :S

    I pledge allegiance to the underworld One nation under dog,There of which I stand alone,A face in the crowdUnsung, against the mold
    Without a doubt
    Singled out
    The only way I know

    Stepped out of the line,Like a sheep runs from the herd
    Marching out of time,To my own beat now
    The only way I know

    One light, one mind,Flashing in the dark
    Blinded by the silence of a thousand broken hearts

    "For crying out loud" she screamed unto me
    A free for all,Screw 'em all
    You are your own sight

    I want to be the minority,I don't need your authority
    Down with the moral majority,I want to be the minority

    Ok my question is...

    Has the bug from the demo regarding cavalry pursuit of routing units been adressed? By this I mean the fact that sometimes my cavalry will run alongside or in front of routing infantry instead of killing them.

    Sometimes it is questionable as to who is the one being pursued!

    Why is the "Total War Cam" not truly the Total War Cam? Will it be fixed from demo to full release?

    are you playing a Mod? 1) i have NEVER seen that 2) someone from CA already posted in reply to someone who asked that question. he said that as soon as you are using a mod, the AI can no longer be expected to preform at par. (i believe many of the events in battle are choreographed)

    In what ways is multi-player different in Rome TW from Medieval TW/Viking Invasion?

    My question is if they can give some example of how moddable rtw will be. For example will they give you programs with the game to mod it. Will the files be in data files and will they not use obscure file extensions. So what have they done to make Rtw easy to mod.

    May I suggest a question about KILLING SPEED?

    Also, has the game gone through any more optimization since the demo?
    Some fought for power. Some for glory. Others fought for much more...

    Onward men! There's juice to be had!

    I second this one. In the interviews CA had done so far they said they will not really be going into this in depth until a couple of months after the release, so it would be good if we can get a bit of info now.

    EDIT - I guess if I were to ask 5 question they would be

    1. The aforementioned one about modding

    2. How can you influence whether you can fight in day or night?

    3. Will faction re-emergences still be in like they were in MTW (tied to loyalty of province etc) and will they re-emerge with good quality troops?

    4. What does land based trade involve? Is it just as profitable as sea based trade?

    5. If we at the .org were to ask for advanced copies of RTW would your answer be the same as the answer to this question? (haha this one will get 'em!)

    Why do the soldiers in MTW speak Latin, but the Romans in RTW speak English?
