On the old Total war like medieval you could go into the program files and change non playable into playable factions if i remember correctly:rolleyes:, though u ofc dont have the intro movies for them and stuff, hopefully you can do the same again.Quote:

And Midge, the given release date at the moment is November 2008, but it will probably be put back several times like most games.
shame, quite a while yet then, around March 2009 haha!
Well if you look on the Sega website about Empire:Total War then it says the PC release date is due to be Autumn 2008, but a recent interview video says the release date will be Winter 2008.
A short teaser trailer has been released, which seems to have been taken directly from the beginning of Master and Commander:

Triple post, but I don't care.
Brand new land battle screenshot has been released, showing some redcoats in close combat with some sort of green soldiers. It seems like they're quite far in developing these units, since you can see that they have variations in uniform:

Wow, that screenshot actually looks awesome. I might actually think about buying it now :eek:.
There green, might be German? And as before, so long as you can play as the American colonies, i'm in.
It's really hard to tell who they are, some people think they're Irish because of the green, some people think they're Portuguese soldiers, I'm guessing they're Italian, they don't look Prussian or Austrian.
You're gonna need an uber PC to run that at the highest grphic settings :). Looks pretty damn awesome, should have my 4870X2 by the time it's out so shouldn't have a problem :D.
There's some new info that's been given out, including the release date, which is 6th February 2009, as well as the box art:
