    Most useless trailer ever?

        It had absolutely nothing to do with the game though.

            I love a good sea battle

            After I moved from the modding effort with CTP2 here, I spent quite a lot of time helping over at pirates ahoy on the build mod project for the original pirates of the caribbean, so i'm quite easy to convince with a bit of wood vs wood boat combat

            What about the game is not representative in that trailer Nikolai? I must admit since the Total War series started using secureRom copy protection, I sort of gave up following it. I guess this game is more than sea battles, is what you mean?

            Still the trailer looked pretty good, and I know LotM will be impressed by them - not sure I want to spend out on all the hardware I most likely will need to run the game though(same for Fallout here too I suspect).

                  It didn't show anything of the game, just some fancy animation movie set in the era of the game.

                      You know if you break that pattern, there is about a 15% chance the universe will implode - it better be worth it

                        ok, I must admit I know nothing about the game



                        hmmm ok.............its going to be an rts!!!

                        "Empire: Total War is set in the eighteenth century, a turbulent period alive with global conflict, revolutionary fervour and technological advances. With themes such as the Industrial Revolution, America's struggle for independence, the struggle to control Eastern trade routes and the globalisation of war on land and sea, Empire: Total War is one of the richest and most dynamic PC RTS games of all time."

                        not sure about what i feel about that - so I guess they have got rid of the tbs layer altogether now(my favourite bit!). If the game is good its an ok 'evolution' for the series, if not my cup of tea.

                        Ah no it's ok, they still have the tbs section

                        "....Along with the revolutionary introduction of naval combat, Empire: Total War sees further enhancements to the Total War series' signature 3D battles and turn-based campaign map...."

                        joy!

                        "Empire: Total War sees the debut of 3D naval combat in the Total War series. Command vast fleets or single ships on seascapes rich with extraordinary water and weather effects, all of which play a huge role in your eventual glorious success or ignominious defeat. After pummelling your enemy with cannon fire, close your ships to boarding range and then control your men as they fight hand to hand above and below decks."

                        could that what the trailer was showing? I certainly know it is technically possible.

                        Ok so it's sounding ok - now I need to check if they are going to use secureRom and risk borking my PC....
