    Default While we wait, here is an example of what Total War sprites may be like (pics inside)

    This is from a mod for another game but I am hoping the sprites will look at least as good as these in Empire Total War

    I hope they don't reload so fast.

    Why may they look like that?

    I also own that game, its a mod for it.... problem is the game does not do squares
    And no real strat map.... however the tactical map is huge... so huge you zoom out to a larger map during battles

    To me they just look really simple, only well rendered. I hope CA make them more detailed, so it is easier to discern between units.

    they look detailed enough to me. A bit too clean and missing shadows and the like though... no effects basically

    Nice running animations, but I think they reload too fast. Hope it's not that way in Empires.

    Units in Take Command certainly don't reload too fast. It's a far more realistic game than the Total War ones. Although it's interesting to note that even it uses something like a 1:5 ratio for representing troops, so battalions look more like companies and so on.

    The animation there is too fast, but the gameplay wouldn't be.

    That'll be a great mod for TC. I personally do not care what the sprites look like. In battle, you'd be lucky to see the company in front of you once you began marching to your position the smoke and dust would be so bad.

    I hope the sprites don't *need* to look that good. They should only appear in the game at extreme distances. Better yet, I hope they could be ditched altogether, but I'm not sure we're quite there just yet.
    believe in nothing.

    Not everyone has a really good graphics card. Hopefully cards are much faster and much cheaper by then though.
