    I haven't had a chance to dwnld the demo yet (my cable modem is broken & i'm waiting for them to bring over a new one, so i don't hav any internet right now - i'm on somebody elses cpu & it can't handle rtw), but I'm interested in the new Roman units. Specifically - what is the difference between the Eastern and Western romans' units? If I remember correctly, the eastern romans had started using more heavy cavalry while the western romans still relied mainly on infantry. Is this reflected in the available units or am I wrong?

    BTW - what exactly is in the demo?

    Can a CA staff member tell us how old this demo is ??
    Because so far it seem pretty old.
    For example, some of the models are different like catholic priest who are carrying a knife instead of a club, the goth spearmen look different too.
    Also no new voices and the schiltron seem to have a huge problem beating cavalry.
    Also generals is just as suicidal as in RTW V.1.0 so you have taken a step backwards there.

    I think a knife is better than a beatstick...
    Fighting isn't about winning, it's about depriving your enemy of all options except to lose.
