    Any one else annoyed by this?
    Well, I am slightly annoyed that you didn't bother to add the Kingdoms prefix...

    They should make Madden do the commentary.

    I completely agree with the OP. One of the main discouragements I had with the 1.2 patch was the implementation of this useless chatter into the game, where before it was off if you didn't use the advisor.

    One of my biggest disappointments with 1.3/Kingdoms is that they didn't remove the chatter.

    CA, if you are reading this, please tell us how to shut that man up.

    I play the game with Speech turned off COMPLETELY. That removes all speech in the game including the diplomacy, the unit acknowledgements, and the battle chatter. Personally I like it better this way, it's more like the original Medieval where everything was silent and there were no annoying speeches. :)

    I like the speeches , though I think the ones from Rome were much better.

    I've heard the advisor tell me that the battle was going well during deployment before. I'm glad he's enthusiastic 0_o

    His enthusiasm is turned to despair if you are outnumbered.

    It would not matter if you have a small but elite group of troups who are attacked by a huge army of peasents.

    He says unless to the effect of unless something changes we will lose this battle.

    Yes but the commentary is tied to the main sound. I could turn the sound completely off . It is an annoyance, not a game killer.

    I only really ever listen to speeches when the general is stark raving mad.
