How long will you wait?

Instead of smashing it to pieces, you could sell it or give it as a gift to someone who might enjoy the game more than you did.

Regarding expansions, I would probably buy it after hearing some positive reviews and finding out exactly what's improved and wether an expansion is worth buying.

I wont "buy it" unless all major RTW bugs are fixed first .

I wonder what the patch policy for the expansion would be?

Probably no better than for RTW. AFAIK CA has historically tried to fix all problems in one or two mega-patches and refuse to do more. That worked reasonably well for the previous incarnations but I dont think that policy will work for a game this new, this complex, and with this many bugs.

I'm not exactly happy with the AI or the bugs. However, I love this game still and I continue to play it to this day. I will buy it as soon as it comes out.

I will buy it within weeks of me hearing about it.

I will almost certainly get it but not on the day of release. I need to read some feedback first. RTW; while a great game; is the last game I will ever buy as soon as it hits the shelves.

It depends on the content of the X-pack.

1) Mini-Campaign Map? (not again...

)
2) Unit-speed and Kill-rate sliders. (Je'Rome G said he'll mention it to the others).
3) 3D Naval Battles? (c'mon CA, surprise us!)
4) BIGGER Battle Map? (eliminate the red-line already).
5) Bugs fixed? (I'm pretty IF they neglect to release a patch 1.3 those will be remedied).

Those are the main sticking points I can think of from the top of my head.
