    Good list, except keep Strat map turn-based.

    God, can't anyone give Creative Assembly a break? We haven't even played M2TW yet and all EVERYBODY here does is just whine about how much it will suck, how much it sucks already, how much it sucked, and how anyone who thinks otherwise sucks. It seems like the sole purpose of these boards is to complain about how so bloody awful the TW games are. Well, if they're that bad, stop bloody playing them and leave the rest of us in peace!

    I will admit that I agree with your points 2 and 5, and have on several occasions postulated ways to mod them into the games. However, I also recognize that the vast majority of TW gamers don't give an -expletive- over how many loaves of bread they need to sustain their soldiers over 3.7 weeks - they just want to go out and smash other guys' armies while "Ooooing" and "Aaahhing".

    Like it or not, fellow history nuts and TW veterans here, Creative Assembly can no longer realistically tend to only us anymore. That's the volatile video game industry for you. Haven't you noticed that the number 2 thing that they've advocated after graphics for RTW and M2TW was accessibility, how easy it was to go and kick some -expletive- while looking cool doing it? We may not like it, and CA probably doesn't like it too much either, but its just something that we all should have learned to cope with by now. They're not betraying us or trying to deliberately hurt us - they're just trying to survive in an industry that is beginning to rival Hollywood in its xenophobic cautiousness and danger.

    I say we stop threatening to form an angry mob every time the CA staff sneezes, and instead give them a hand for all of their hard work on these excellent games. Who's with me?

    I'm with you. For the sake of working on games for 3 years, that should already be enough to give them a big pat on the back (understatement).

    And they'll probably get it in the form of my $50US.

    I still can dream, can't I?
