Medieval two was a yawn, gunpowder units and elephants with cannons mounted on their heads (timurid.), very slow multiplayer action.. moving on to crap, dull napoleonic era action which no-one is particularly interested in.

Nice to see them move beyond the stabby-stabby battle stuff and into horse and musket warfare. I'm mostly curious about how they will work the imperialism stuff in.

Looks like it will be worth playing for the naval combat alone. Oooh, now this set my Napoleonic juices flowing. Looks like it will be worth playing for the naval combat alone.

It's a shame how this saga began with a fantastic AI in Shogun TW, but sequel after sequel it's not an aspect they have improved, it's still the same AI or even worse. A friend of mine, expert in the Total War series made a test with Shogun vs Medieval 2, in both cases he put his army composed of the same type of troops in a line, waiting for the enemy to attack. The attacking AI was much more smart in Shogun TW :S. I hope this time they will improve the tactical AI.

Anyone knows a game that has realistic and well designed naval combat (not inside a submarine)?. Would like to play some really epic naval battles with canons reducing to ashes the enemy boats. It´s a nice change of setting for Total War, hope they nail it. Naval combat? yes please.
