    O Lord. They didn't mention adding blood or slowing the kill rate and move speeds. RTW 1.5, here we go.

    But at least it'll look pretty, and that's what matters, right? Right?

    Medieval 2 will contain have one campaign

    Most of the time, you will need the artillery to smash through the outer wall, while you use the siege towers to scale the inner wall. If your men managed to prise open the citygate, then you can let your units storm the keep with storm ladders. Of course, a couple of well-aimed cannonballs should do the trick as well. The localized damage (what you hit is what you destroy) also adds to the realism.
    Does that mean no more wall sections?
    Medieval 2 is being developed by a section of CA in Brisbane, Australia. At the moment, the studio has 37 members and the most of them have worked on previous titles of the Total War franchise (including Spartan Total Warrior). Medieval 2 will be our first solo project.
    You mean someone has actually taken notice of australia?

    Actually I was under the impression that the Australian division of CA did RTW, I was all confused when I read the beginning of the article.

    Thanks for the translation.

    Regarding the 21/30 provinces, I would imagine this interview would have been done weeks ago, and its only in the last couple of days that they've clarified that its 30.

    Interesting that its been done by CA Oz, althought the Australian offices have been around for a long time, at least since the time of MTW I believe. It does raise the question as to what CA UK are working on.....
    "I request permanent reassignment to the Gallic frontier. Nay, I demand reassignment. Perhaps it is improper to say so, but I refuse to fight against the Greeks or Macedonians any more. Give my command to another, for I cannot, I will not, lead an army into battle against a civilized nation so long as the Gauls survive. I am not the young man I once was, but I swear before Jupiter Optimus Maximus that I shall see a world without Gauls before I take my final breath."

    They haven't clarified anything.
    They said they will look into it, not that they are gonna do it.
