Rome 1 had pigs you could set on fire which might run towards the enemy. Way better then balls of fire.

It's the best strategy, you do the winning and the barbecue victory party in one swoop.

Teutoburg Forest walkthrough is up. Come 'n' get it!

Looks like there's a stamina or morale bar at the bottom of each card. Anything else you guys spot that interested you?

I'm just glad to see a little of the game which as been mostly internet ink so far.

For the battle ,its good, it seems to be pretty close to Shogun 2 with a big improvement for terrain graphics and a few gameplay mechanics.

But really... I just want to see some of the campaign gameplay at this stage. If the game is still scheduled for late 2013, I'm not very happy with them showing nothing of it.
Either we are alone in the Universe or we are not. Both are equally terrifying.

Eh, I wouldn't worry too much. They have the whole summer to hype it up.

Derp. We were wondering so hard about what that symbol at the bottom of the factions page was. They revealed it on Rally Point. CA, you bunch of trolls. X-D

Pontus is faction #9. Will be free DLC on day 1. But... it's not just included within the game from the get-go? O_o I don't understand their logic behind this.

Usually that has something to do with manufacturing/licensing stuff. They have a working version of the game, but it sometimes takes time to license that stuff at online retailers (i think this is more for consoles then PC, though) and press/ship the physical DVDs. During that time they can still have their team working on other stuff, which is then ready before the game releases as a free DLC.

Ah, okay. I guess I see what you mean. It looked to me like an excuse to increase their PR, but that makes sense. If it means they're closer to release than we thought, and/or they're working harder on overall gameplay and whatnot, I won't complain.

It could also be an anti piracy thing. Making the paying people get more from the get go. Though DLCs of popular games tend to be included in cracked versions.

Been snooping around Total War Center. Found a really great thread from a developer answering questions and providing feedback on news for the game. Here's his most recent update, talks extensively on the combat system for Rome II.

Some DLC for Rome II was just announced. Adds the Greek factions Athens, Epirus, and Sparta. Is free for those who pre-order the game.

Wooooot!! That's JUST what I wanted to see! :-D

Everyone and their mewling kitten will be happy to see Sparta included, I imagine, hahaha!

Edit: Wait. At the end it says "Out September 3rd." Does this mean a release date? :-o

Yeah I was wondering that as well. Seems far too early to be a release date, and they would have announced it anyway. I guess it's the date you can preorder or something.

That would make sense. The link says the release date is "Dec. 31, 2013," but that's probably just because CA says it will be released "before" 2014.

...But this is promising news.

Wow, the pre order just came up on Steam. Way to test my loyalty CA. £45...are you fucking kidding me???

This is a serious crisis. I have a major problem with even paying £30 for games and now £45 for Rome II. Holy sugar...

Ah okay, it's only £30 for Amazon pre order. Not too much I guess. But being gipped out of the Greek States is extremely worrying. Oh dear, what has happened to gaming :/

I refuse to buy this game if they only release a very small amount of factions along with a bunch of DLC factions. Complete and utter bull. DLCs should be things like unit expansions, map expansions, or other important changes (like a different battle screen), not things that should come with the game on the first day and which can't even take that long to create.

At the very list, if they're going to do the DLC scam they should release the vanilla game for free.
