Here are some (besides what we really want to know about the pak files):

(1) Will we be able to have more than 21 factions on the campaign map (there was talk of 30 possible at one time)? I noticed that there are already more than 21 factions defined in the text files, if you count the Saxons and the Normans.

(2) Are the rome abilities (e.g., testudo, shieldwall) still in the game (would they be recognized if one assigned the attribute to a unit in the EDU)?

(3) Is the horde feature (from BI) in the game?

(4) Will it be possible to remove the pope from a campaign (e.g., if one wanted to create an ancient era mod)? The same goes for crusades

(5) *this isn't a mod question, but I am curious* Have they decided whether to put the option of saving a battle replay in the single player campaign in?

Thanks for taking our questions.
