A REALLY Interesting Preview Of M2TW

[Puzz3D]

Who knows, a few more TWs down the line and we might edge towards the perfect real time strategy game.

Yes. You'll have health packs strewn around the battlefield to replenish your hitpoints.

Well, that's what I'm hoping for. And quad-damage powerups when I need my general riding his 480BHP Mustang steed to blitz the enemy pikemen who's close range light sabers usually just kill him outright. Come on CA, sort yourself out. We're waiting for the TW revolution to begin!

Mercilessly slaughter the prisoners you capture during a battle (a feature reprised from the original Medieval) and your general's 'dread' rating will rocket, making enemies fearful on the battlefield and civilians more obedient within cities. And while showing mercy in war may make your generals a target for 'big girly girl' remarks from opposing armies, at least the people will love them should you order them to babysit a settlement. Unless of course they raid the fridge, invite over their girlfriend and leave sticky stains on the sofa, in which case, they could be faced with a revolution.

From the interview: "Battle number two is a desert skirmish. English crusaders battle the Egyptians, pounding the massed enemy ranks with mighty cannons."

This is tactical fantasy, and I presume the battle was over in about 5 minutes since they played 3 battles including setup time in 20 minutes.

I think CA probably had the battles in mid-flow or just cut to the juicy bits.

You mean the jucy bit of crusader cannon pounding infantry in a desert skirmish?

You forgot the holy sword of great redemption +10...

[4th Dimension]

Let's not forget the Dragons. Integrla part of every real game representing Medieval period. :D

And that they will all team up on the onqueror is not entirely true. Some factions would ally with him, if they hated their neghbours more than him, if that faction promised not to conquer them.

And power-ups. Don't forget the power-ups!
