Yeah, tried that, still makes no sense to me? What have Japan, the Togukawa and English azz got to do with each other?

if etw will have japan faction in the package then it will be ruled by shogun from tokugawa family and they will fight like samurai do so. if some english wellington (dont mistake with boots) will land on japan he will face the same experience that Tomi Crusi had in movie "the last samurai". I mean by that that japan with indians could be the only factions fighting in the old ways in this game.

I wonder how armies will move if there are no tiles. This game is still turn-based isn't it, not an RTS?

It sounds like the macro-battle (i.e. invasion routes & pre-battle maneuvering) may become at least as important as on-the-field tactics. I do hope we'll have the granularity on the big map to engineer that sort of thing well.

And i see the facing system from other turn-based games. if your army will be attacked from behind you start a battle like you would be in ambush in rtw/m2tw. It must be like that if naval battles can have some strategy in it and not only typical rts "who have more and bigger guns".

I'm hoping it's an entire-world, wrap-around map. To be honest, I don't see how you could make a game in this era without it being one. If India is in the game and the Americas are in the game, it would be ridiculous to have to sail east to get from Mexico to India.
