: "Aketons don't lace up down the front!":

they don't? blast. no wonder they've been laughing at me in the taverns.

great pictures! i'm with Blind King on an Ottoman/near east expansion pack, the Dark Ages was nice novelty but i keep returning to the Medieval period.
TW Conquistadores? the thought of fighting historically accurate battles is pretty grim and probably impossible under the current game engine (300 Spanish against tens of thousands of natives...we'd have to be talking some serious overpowering of the Spanish stats here, and i hate jinettes enough already)

On top of this, The Creative Assembly have implemented a fully redesigned multiplayer mode that offers a dynamic multi-battle campaign bolstered by an unprecedented level of visceral combat choreography that reflects the brutality of medieval warfare.

Over 200 new units, greater depth in siege warfare, new weaponry and a highly detailed building damage model all combine to make Medieval 2: Total War the best version of the PC’s greatest strategy game ever made.

Discover the Americas looks very cool, looks like a larger map. Also multiplayer campaigns :)
