#you have already got a copy fo the pre-beta/beta??

no he played a version at some game show. thats where all his wonderful pictures came from

Well I must say I am excited as this will be the first Total War game I will get at its launch.

It looks good, I dunno im sort of scared because I don't wanna be disappoited...

im just worried that i will get bored of the western euro factions, because from IGN's unit lists it looks like most of their units are generic and used for all the catholic factions. (like chivalric knights, musketeers, the various militias, etc.) Was hoping for more variety...like how the turkish units are totaly different from the egyptian ones and are all unique.

i think they are different enough... Longbowmen FTW

but they were bound to have similer units just like in MTW

I'll probably buy the game tomorrow  ;D ;D ;D november 10th that is. Hope I can still sleep tonight

i wont be... i wont be untill after you have it...

I feel sorry for AT-AT, it's like trying to wait for an important delivery from someone...TORTURE!!!!

yes it is. the game gets made here and then we get it last(well second last new Zeland gets it one day after me)

It's made in Australia?

yeh, its made in brisbane australia i think. dunno why australians get it later than almost everyone... i hope its worth the wait. sry AT-AT, wish you could at least play The Crusades mod, you have bad luck. 

yeah It was made in Brisbane. the first game that the CA team made down here. i would really like to know what happened to my RTW disk. I'm beginning to think it vanshed in to thin air or down a black hole or something

*walks into room to find giant swirlling mass of darkness on floor*

 

crap...oh well  : I'm not reaching down there... ;D

 

Go to the development studio and see if they will give you a copy after the europe release, if you live close that is...
