    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.

    This was really hard.

    As much I drool and rant and rave over EB, I have to say BI.

    EB will be a finished product of RTW, but with the same AI flaws and junk that make us all irritated. BI will be a whole new game similar to the previous XPs.

    The XP will allow for more modding material.

    The XP has hard coded features that may be changed, basically making it a new experience.


    ARARAGHHGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHRRRRAAA!!!

    EB will be historically accurate, have new perspectives on old favorites...

    EB will be done right...

    This was very narrow. Very. I am still looking forward to EB. In some ways EB more because it will be sooner than the XP.

    i guess the answer has to be neither,
    any mod is essentially bugged
    CA have blown their last chance (didn't we all say that after MTW after they forced us to buy the XP to get bug fixes).

    so I guess I'm looking forward to Civ4, the slitherine game, galciv4 and the new morrowind game.

    BI, cause it will hopefully add more features or units for modders to mess with and I will definately be getting it, whereas with EB I will have to get someone to dl it for me due to dial up, it will be a pain to get. I look forward to EB as well though.

    Well, the current statistics of the polls show three things. One is that people simply don't learn from history. Another is that Creative Assembly can get away with making shoddy games because people will snap them up no matter what. The other is that people don't appriciate hard work given away for free.

    I am so steamed by the results of this poll that I am tempted to send twenty dollars to the Europa Barbororum team.

    Bingo. Either people don't like what EB is going to offer, or they're blind to the past. Everyone who commented about the BI is simply hoping that their faith is well placed in CA's XP wheras EB's progress is laden bare and obvious for all. I surely hope that CA releases an XP that does everything in these comments and more besides - but I know from the last year's events that it's not worth it. I may very well buy the XP, but I darenot look forward to a fourth version when the previous three have left myself wanting. That would be a fool's errand to herald that day.

    You'd think that in a forum based on a form of entertainment based on history that people would actually pay attention to past events.

    For my part BI.

    CA hasn't dissapointed me with the expansion pack in MTW, so I hope they won't in RTW.
