My Nightmare of an Add-on

What does Hollywood have against the English?! :(

Too right!! When are we going to get a decent movie about Hengist & Horsa, King Redwald, Alfred the Great, Beowulf, or Harold Godwinson? Usually we just get either:
1) English = bad guys
2) ENGLISH blamed for the misdeeds of the BRITISH

Anglo-saxon rant over.

Personally I think CA would be a lot more likely to go down the Hunnic route if left to their own devices for the expansion. Everything we have seen from them indicates that they do care about producing a well-researched game rooted in history. The only competing factor is the drive to sell, and this might push them towards something "flashier", e.g. Arthur/Riothamus. As far as I know, the new Arthur movie didn't do too well, so maybe this will dissuade them!
Personally I'd love to see them make a prequel focused on the conquest of Italy, struggles against the Etruscans etc., but I'd happily settle for Hunnic Invasion or Gothic Invasion.

Well had Hollyweird simply renamed the movie 'Troy' to 'Beowulf' you would have had your Northern European epic (albeit a bad one). With the exception of Eric Bana 'Troy' featured the most celtic/aryan looking Greeks I've ever seen!
