As we all know, people playing computer games are divided into two main groups: nerds who've never even seen the sun or a member of the opposite sex and sweating 12 year old kids with attention deficit disorder who are thirsty for virtual blood. (yes, I've stolen the second group from Yahtzee)
Most people playing the Total War series belong to the former and to expand its target group, CA would have to appeal to our friends wacked on ritaline.
For guns are attention-catching weapons and CA intends to enhance its automangament features, this can only mean one thing.
Empires is going to be the strategy equivalent of Halo 3!
