Total War General Discussion Thread: Shogun to Rome 2!

I wonder how the multiplayer will work since now unlike shogun 2 we will not have the same units fighting one another...

What? There's no reason why multiplayer wouldn't work because of more unit diversity.

I wants multiplayer campaign.

I did not say that, its more of "How will the avatar campaign work with all the different cultures". Cause in Shogun 2 all units were the same so there was not a problem with balancing it. While with the many cultures, there will need to be a type of balancing.

Well if they did it with ntw and etw and rtw and mtw, then they can do this.

Yes, but they might want to stick with Shogun 2's MP features...

Certain that CA will come up with some way to make it work. Agreed that it will be impossible to balance and there will be a lot of whining from the community every time a unit gets nerfed, but the same has happend for every other game with very different factions.

It has been quite a long time since the last update / rally point episode.

A 20 minute episode of Rally Point isn't enough for you? :p

At least now we have a official statement of the map - Western Iberia in the west to modern day Afghanistan in the east. It should look something like this:

The lighter grey tone being the new area, the darker tone being the old area.

Well, you can see the campaign map parts in the video:



And a picture, showing different used equipment of the romans:

So apparently back then people blocked with the flat of their blade.
