Any questions for the official M2TW FAQ?

[Zatoichi]

Will gunpowder be discovered by a specific turn/year or will it depend on constructing certain buildings/buildings + random number of turns/years (as in RTW for the Marian reforms depending on which patch you use)?

Will musket armed troops only be able to fire in 2 ranks to be effective, or will it be the same archery model used in RTW, where depth of formation made no difference? (This applies to all archery units I guess).

Will there be faction respawn after their defeat a la MTW?

Will generals' loyalty and civil wars be included?

Is Sean Pertwee in the frame for more voice acting?

OK, that's enough for now.

Edit - oh, just one more! Will there be prisoner capture of routing units and the the opportunity to ransom them after the battle?
