    Mark me down as a "yes". I thought they would return to Asia, but I'm willing to wait for that, confident that it's in the pipeline of development, somewhere.

    Meanwhile, gunpowder and naval will introduce new challenges to me, the player - always good fun.

    On the downside, it's probably gonna require a hardware update for my 3-year old rig. So, this $60 game will cost me @$2,000 in one-time cashflow.
    Be well. Do good. Keep in touch.

    I've got to agree with you KukriKhan, I haven't been able to upgrade to play M2:TW yet, so I've got no chance of playing this yet. Overall though, after playing Napoleonic 2, which I must say is fantastic, I realise what a great era this is. Its also nice to have a change and have to develop tactics for gunpowder and the naval battles look amazing.

    Oooo! You already have two games - one best graphics and one most qualitative, and we have only one with crappy realization . So you'd better wait couple of years... Firstly RTW2!

    I already expressed my delight about finally including true naval battles in TW. Well, the best era for naval theme is XVI. through XIX. centuries, second half of which has been announced for the upcoming Empire. So, yes, I'm happy.



    A post-medieval game could better be considered as the next title -presumably- using the same engine. Or an expansion maybe...

    I voted yes, but mostly because it is my favourite era of the realistic ones. I really think, and I may be wrong in this that a game with TW scale would work brilliantly in the WW1 or WW2 era I would love to fight the battle of Kursk or Verdun not with 3 or 4 tanks and 20 infantrymen but with 500 tanks and 10,000 men, with the whole load of artillery and everything else. I know its probably never going to happen and I should instead pray for a mod of Supreme Commander in that ear but still.

    However as I doubt my dream will ever come true yippe for Empire Total War the closest I'll ever get.

    I will wait about 1 year to buy the game after its release. That's when the final patch comes out, and the modders have fixed the other problems, and made it slightly enjoyable.

    But I do think the era will be great.

    I will be comparing it to Sid Meier's Gettysburg.

    Absolutely, the best era for the game mechanics and one of the most interesting in history combined - excellent!

    Tightly drilled formations, marching in order against other similar enemies. I have always felt uncomfortable about "units" of medieval spearmen marching around, let alone bands of barbarians doing the same thing. The Romans did, but many of their opponents didn't and I feel CA have always had to compromise with how the units look and feel on the battlefield. In ETW, it will at least look right.

    As for the setting, it is the time when the world emerged as it is today. Too often it is ignored in school (probably becasue it is not PC). Not only did nations begin to emerge as we see them now, but political thought, progress, innovation, Reason starting to banish superstition and religion, etc... The Enlightenment - you can't get better than that.

    Hi All,

    I rushed out & bought it - I'm now back playing MTW2. I do like all the new units & maps but I realised I love the big map scenario - I enjoy many of the mods which expand the map.

    Personal choice really but smaller map=unhappy henry!!

    hmmm.... You rushed out and bought it? Do you know something none of us do?

    The game isn't released till next year.

    You sure you're not talking about Kingdoms TW? That's just been released.

    MTW2 may have better graphics and more developed trade and diplomatic system but when playability comes to scene it can't even come near MTW.
    You'll never have a 6 hour battle (in real world time) defending a forest against hordes and hordes,like 4 thou, of mongols and win! That you could do in MTW and can't now.
    And voted yes. Napoleonic warfare is cool and untouched by CA till now. + will look forward to those new medieval mods in ETW.

    Methinks he was referring to Shogun (hence the smaller map comment).

    I really dont understand this obsession people have with getting RTW2. I dont see how it would end up that much different to the original RTW.

    As for STW2, IMO the original STW is probably too small and limited a topic for a new TW game. I think it would make an excellent subject for an expansion pack of an Asia:Total War game though.
