    You know its weird that as of right now Activision has surpassed EA is lameness while EA has actually started to not be total money grubbing monkeys. Times they are a changin.

    Unless it was the Red Alert 3 Steam deal. Everyone who bought a legal copy of the game has had their serial invalid.

    Still no modding tools then? Hardly surprising.

    I guess, CA will never ever release any tools for E:TW nor N:TW. They will ride the horse of franchise to death and will change in 2 or 3 years to strategic browser games.

    In about 10 or 15 years (when the world is still there, 2012... you know?), someone will remember on some outstanding games with turn-based strategic part and great real-time battles. Like i do sometimes ... (Shogun in E:TW graphics would be great! And i would like to have small hexes on the strategic map, just for the "old times")

    Believe me or not, sometimes i play "Conquest of the new World" in Dos-Box. Great game!

    I concur with the patrons of this forum who feel CA is shooting itself in the foot by not supporting the modding community. 6 months ago I re-purchased Rome Total War just because I found out about Europa Barbarorum. Soon after I repurchased Alexander expansion because I found out the Europa Babarorum plays even better with the Alexander.exe. And, I believe, I am not the only one who has done similar re-purchases years after the original release of the game just because a certain mod seemed exciting.

    CA is losing out with the current approach.

    Indeed . Greed is a most foolish creature that often costs itself greater profit down the track . Enlightened self interest cringes when it witnesses the choices and actions of its' demented cousin .

    I'm not going to change for the other three .

    I do question the option of not doing more to support MP or Mods. You should have one or the other for any shelf life.
