    if by movement rate you mean the available distance an army can travel, its considerably larger than RTW though we will be tweaking it during our testing phase. There are roughly 12 capitals on the map (give or take a few) and the amount of settlements to be gained or lost is still being decided. You will only be able to upgrade vertain cities twice and even then they will be limited. There are towns, large towns and cities. towns and large towns are limited in their troop production (mostly militia) and will not have stone walls. Cities open up troop production and gain a stone wall. Capitals will be able to be all your factions troops. Turns per year is still a secret.

    Thanks. Sounds like you're doing a lot to keep the campaign game more interesting, which can only be a good thing.

    Simply glancing at the campaign map will not be enough anymore. You will have to use your spies to check garrisons, the size of enemy armies and even the skill of an enemy general or if its even a general (as captians and generals look the same on the campaign map).
    Love it! Great idea

    The map has to be at least 10 times better than the Alexander add-on map.

    AWESOME. I can´t wait for this. I already liked Chivalry´s new army models, but yours are outstanding - I especially love the idea with the missing strength indicators, that´s one really neat idea.

    But is it just me or does the right-most banner-carrier indeed carry Stars and Stripes ?

    Looks amazing, I really can't wait.

    Quick question: will the wonders have effects IE pyramids, pharos lighthouse, hanging gardens of babylon etc.?
