    No sorry - that's the LAST step in the process. That will happen in Oct at the earliest.

    Agreed, since the game is pre-alpha there is no way that they are already priting the game. Unless, they were just lying about the alpha and the game is ready and it will ship much sooner than expected. Which is nigh impossible really.

    The Pontic kingdom is one kick-butt of a faction we are as glad as hell to have been granted by our majestic CA developer god kings of mankind.

    I'm actually looking forward to Pontus, they're a good mix of East and West. And they have plenty of room to expand.
    Ja mata, TosaInu. You will forever be remembered.

    Been to:

    Swords Made of Letters - 1938. The war is looming in France - and Alexandre Reythier does not have much time left to protect his country. A novel set before the war.

    A Painted Shield of Honour - 1313. Templar Knights in France are in grave danger. Can they be saved?

    I'd say that every faction bar Numidia has plenty of room to expand...
    The art of war, then, is governed by five constant
    factors, to be taken into account in one's deliberations,
    when seeking to determine the conditions obtaining in the field.

    These are: (1) The Moral Law; (2) Heaven; (3) Earth;
    (4) The Commander; (5) Method and discipline.

    Best explanation I've yet head for the day 1 DLC: The "finished" game needs to be submitted to all sorts of approvals, certifications, testing, etc. By shifting some material to day 1 DLC, CA can keep adding material without endangering their deadlines for all of the various ratings and testings.

    Makes more sense than any of the other theories.
