So, I expect this one to be my new #1 game.

Oh well.... back to kick some Carthagenian butt.

In my Elephant case, they where flying turtles......
but It seemed that the enemy elephants are a good counter attack too...just put some fire on them and they go into stampede and smash themselfs in the marching enemy troups :rotfl:

But the Romans are too stupid to know how to handle a bow!!

Maybe I could light some of the civilians from captured villages on fire and sling them out with a catapult. :rotfl:

Is it worth the extra cash Stabiz? As this is the verison i have ordered. Cost me £39.

[stabiz]

I think so. I think I got it for less than it should cost, since I only paid approx 4£ more than the standard version. The box is huge!

This game totally rocks! The music is of Hans Zimmer quality, and the battles ... OMG (And the crusades!)

I wont be playing Company of Heroes for a LONG time.

Good to know thanks Stabiz Only a few days to wait :p

[Dowly]

Hmm.... I´ve read that the battles are more "brutal" now. What does that mean? BLOOD????? (please) :hmm:

Edit: Nevermind, I just watched some trailers. Medieval was the dark age! I want to see blood and severed hands on the battlefield!! ARRR!!

Meh, it's ok. I could never reach and conquer the Americas in the name of the Moors! (Middle-East). I did, however, conquer all the others.

Rome: Total War got me the Greek Cities, and my Spartan Hoplites destroyed every empire on the map.
