New Total War: Attila set to release in 2015

is it not just a copy paste of rome 2? it might be cool but it should have been medieval III !!

I'd rather see Empire II, honestly.

glorified DLC

Looks very good to me. Interesting period, cool factions, good design choices overall, and family trees are back in the series.

Well, they are pretty good at hyping stuff up, that is for sure. R2:TW disappointment still burns

[Angantyr]

The Huns are not going to be playable it seems, but an emerging 'end boss' kind of faction. CA describes the game as a 'strategy survival game', with the Huns and an in-game climate change mechanic setting mass-migrations (the Völkerwanderung) into motion. What I'm really looking forward to though, is the Viking Forefathers DLC.

Dynamic fires and disease also sounds cool. And the unit card design style is a great improvement over RTWII, reminds me a bit of the original MTW.

The first video there said pre alpha footage, On 27th September. Release in February. Pre alpha to release in 5 months? Seems... Awkward

par for the CA course. It'll be buggy and broken. Mark my words.

[Mr_Oujamaflip]

I still reckon it's Sega's fault over CA. Sega have sucked the life out of everything they touch.

[Leesin]

Of course, SEGA have forced their hand and pushed deadlines for a long time now, it's obvious they pushed the DLC front too.

[ecorcheur_brokar]

I am sure just like the two last TW, it will be realesed unfinished, then instead of repairing bug or the stupid IA they have for already 2 TW, they will realease DLC. I think it's a bad idea for them to create a new game so close to the previous in time and in space, for sure a medieval one would have been better.

Apart form that, the family thing upgraded seems really cool, it was the thing I enjoyed the most in shogun. It allows more to put yourself in the place of your general.

Those morons have also brought back ransoms! I missed ransoms. You can also recruit captured warriors to help refill your units at a lower morale cost for a few rounds.
