EDIT: And I agree on the General. I want him back!

Can't say I interested, but info seems to be pretty good and...

Found some high res screenshots. This game looks incredible:

Open in a new screen/tab to view full size

Also looks beautiful.:o

I hope they can release a special addition for the next xbox/playstation,rts games have not translated well at all this generation of consoles,i believe a controller can work but these kind of games are usually very resource intensive and current systems can cope with that much action on screen at once.blacktorn

Very few console gamers would buy this game.

lol @ RTS games

Well, the answer to your question is yes. You can manage your settlements, recruit troops, build your economy, etc.

I play the Total War series since the first Shogun, but when i introduced it to my cousin thats the only games he plays is Total War, he probalby put in more then 10000+ hours into them. And Rome is his favorite, so when i tell him about this one he will be excited.

Gentlemen, I have a strong feeling that we won't see this game until early 2014 at the very least. They will delay it at least once.

So guys, I've already been recommended Rome: Total War and Shogun (or one of it's stand alone expansions) as good starters, but which of those two would be a real good start for the "n00bz"? :P

I don't want to be easy, but I want to be a good start, one that probably has a campaign that starts softly (good for n00bz like moi) and then grows increasinglyharder! I have some experience with Cov 4 and AOE 3 if that's some help..

edit: Ok, scratch that. It seems it exists but still console gamers dont give a fvck about games like RTS/RTT/TBS w/e you want to call them

edit 2: and wtf is up with such a variation of terms? Tactic is basically a synonym for strategy... using both terms with diferent meaning seems stupid to me
