What are you looking forward to more?

I voted Barbarian Invasion for the simple reason that I figure it will have more polish than RTW and that it will therefore be better raw material for the modders, including for an updated version of EB.

If I had a choice only between EB and vanilla BI, I would probably go for EB because I think it's more likely to be an interesting and playable game.

Ive got 3 point why i am divided:
1: The c.a will probably have better acses to resources e.c.t
2:EBs members are probably more comited as they are only working on one project and enthusiastic.
3:They will both probably be really good games im just going to get wich ever one is first.
Also is EB free?

Definately BI. No disrespect to the great work that the modding community do, but I want to play the official product, and I want it to be good (i.e. better than the mods). This might sound like unrealistic optimism in the light of experience, but I'll look forward to BI eagerly unless and until my hopes that it will make RTW the game it always could have been are dashed.

If the modders could fix the AI then I would be playing RTW a lot. But they can't so I will be looking forward to BI. However, I won't actually buy it until I hear that the AI is fixed and it isn't loaded with new bugs. Till then MTW:VI will just have to do.

I'll be going with EB. I'll get that mainly because it will make the present RTW much more interestng. All the Xp pack will do is prolly add a bit more map, maybe a few more factions and units and possibly another campaign. It's not that great. EB is great.

I'm looking forward to Barbarian Invasion more so then Europa Barbarorum mainly because of the expanded modding possibilities ala what VI did for MTW. Really hope that more factions can be created in the expansion pack and the ability to create events such as the marian reforms, be able to tie dates to them and perhaps some more options such as having a faction spawn at a given date. Heh.. I personally would like to see a whole lot of modding additions in BI.
