Because, you know, I am arrogant and overbearing, so I try really hard to hide it. ^_^

But I'm still unsure about the nature of that barrel-throwing catabuchet that's shown in the end? Looks like some sort of clusterfire artillery or so, I mean, did these things exist? While it does look doable, I've never heard of such a weapon before and it looks a bit too devastating for my tasteI(then again, it's a trailer, they're always made a bit more spectacular).
Oh, and I like the nobles who come over for a crusading holiday from all over the world who you then have to protect or kill, depending on which faction you play.

Standard artillery w/ explosive shells or fire ammo look awesome too. They barely hit anything, though, so I'm sure that artillery likely wouldn't be that devastating.

Now then, the trailer. I couldn't stand the narrator's voice.
Still, I think I'll enjoy that campaign.

Don't worry, being a pompous elitist arsehat myself, I can wholeheartedly condone your condescending spite of my ignorance regarding minute historical miscellania. I hope I came off as just informative, and not arrogant and overbearing.

If they were good enough for Alexander Nevsky they are good enough for me!

Good point.
Sometimes me brain doesn't work right.
Sadly, I just can't get all that worked up about Kingdoms. I haven't even played through all the vanilla campaigns yet, so the last thing I really want or need is a whole lot more to plough through, then mod to make more difficult, remove the bugs, balance the units, etc, etc...
What I'd like more than anything else is a really challenging AI; one that I don't have to artificially enhance with money scripts and spawned garrisons. These can only do so much anyway, since no matter how many stacks the campaign AI throws at you there's a tried and tested method to smash them to smithereens on the battlefield....
Maybe Civ IV Beyond the Sword is a better option.
