Looks good...
random thoughts
1. We see inside a building with men at the windows, are we going to see battles being fought inside? Having your men storm a keep would be quite interesting, and far better than simply defending walls. Defending the bastille from those unruly peasents would be an intersting campaing event.
2. All the units within a regiment look the same, have they dropped the random troops element or is this something they simply havn't got round to yet? Drummers look good though, and I liked what I assume are the officers with pistols.
3. Those pallisades that simply appear out of nowhere look terrible, as well as unbalancing. There should atleast be the need for the regiment deploying them to break formation and spend considerable time digging in.
Come on Feb 6th though. (as if this won't be delayed!)

2: It's not coming out for a few more months, they probably haven't got around to it yet.
3. That's something you do while still deploying your troops, once the battle starts, I doubt you'll still be able to.

You could disable some of the more annoying things in RTW like bright green arrows under selected units and the giant floating flags. I wouldn't be surprised if the cannonball trails are optional here as well.Steel wrote:It looks like cannon balls have the same stupid trails as on the naval combat videos. I hope thats something thats a WIP or something that can be disabled, as it looks like wank.
