Campaign game with multiplayer?

[Krusader]

This is a long shot, and has probably been suggested and shot down time and time again, but is there any way that you can make it possible to play campaigns in multiplayer? One off battles suck, so do the 'historical' ones, Ionly like battles that have consquences.

Thanks.

What you describe is what Total War fans have been waiting and asking for since Shogun: Total War.
