    Aw, show a little optomism!!! I know it's premature speculation to expect and EBIII when EBII hasn't even been released, but I was merely trying to psyc-up the EBers about the upcoming TW title. Though they will probably be playing EBII when it's released and won't show the new TW title much interest. I personally will try both. I am ambydexterous in that way!!

    No negative sarcasm, subconcious perhaps, but not intentional!!

    Thanks for the congrats, friend!!! Here's to 500 more!!! (hopefully useful and intelligent)!!!

    EB team announced that they won't make EB III after II, because it consumes too much time.

    I hope it will be Rome 2: Total War, but I will simply wait and see what comes out of it. Hopefully EB II will be released earlier.

    Somehow I seemed to remember the same - just can't remmeber from where.... (EBII will be epic like nothing else anyway)

    I think CA will release the next TW game on the E3, or that's what I hope...

    I'll place my bets on R2TW, just because RTW sold like crazy. Brace for even better looking Roman Ninjas!

    Releasing it without hyping it first would seem an odd decision to me.

    That statement must have been made at a moment where both ETW and NTW offered few modding possibilities. With the next TW-title, the situation might (I repeat: might) be more favourable to the modding community. Other than that: even if some EB-members decided to retire after or even before the release of EB2, there would most likely be others who wouldn't. Just take a look at the team that made EB1: a considerable part of the team has either quit the team or left the modding-arena. (No bad words about these members. They somehow deserve a life too.)

    kind regards,

    Andy

    They already have stated they will announce the next TW at E3, that's what the link earlier in the thread was stating

    I doubt that the new TW will be as moddable as RTW was, afterall Sega is in control.

    Well, hopefully they'll maybe reverse their decision when Rome 2 comes out - because let's face it, we're gonna need the EB team to correct all the historical screw-ups that CA manages to pull off. But from the sound of it, that may be a long ways away - if ever. -M

    I hope you're right. I hope Skullhead is right too and we will see an R2TW trailer on E3.

    That would be a shame, not to experience the vision of such talent. I do realize they have lives however. Oh well, we don't even know if the presumed Rome 2 will be moddable.

    edit: posted before I read the above post. (I do that all the time!)

    It seems awkwardly amusing reading the sentences that refer to the EB Team in such a distanced tone. It is almost as if there is a concept that there are two worlds: The Realm of Humans, and The Realm of the EB Team...
