I agree because in MTW the campaign aspect of the game was just as fun as the battles.

One evil tactic I use is to take over an already conquered land by a rival nation, build up the city and let it go to rebellion. Sometimes there would be a resurgence of those conquered people and they'd be a strong threat and nuisance to my rival. How about provoking a Catholic ally to attack a weakened region so that they get excommunicated and you get a free pass to grab land. Or launching a Crusade just to walk through your allies' region to strip them of their troops.

... there are so many little things in MTW that made it fun, I hope they've kept some of it intact.
