    Default I hate killing British People!!!

    I hate to say this as an irish person but in Total War I find it very hard to kill British people. I identify with them more than the other nations obviously and most of my friends are British. When I see the British lines closing in on my french lines and hear them talking " oh lord this is it! " I start to feel like i shouldn't be killing them and it really adds a human touch to the game which I like a lot. Also I know that 1/3 of the Brit army is in some way irish so I guess that would also add to my dislike in killing British people in the game.

    I sometimes get that not wanting to kill a certain enemy unit, but ussually the instinct to blow stuff up overrides it...

    Shoot coward! You are only going to kill a man!

    In my French campaign, I'm trying so very hard to ensure my invasion force doesn't get destroyed the minute it lands on Great Britain, so I have to disagree with the sentiment in the topic title...

    But yes, the human touch to the battles is very integrating.

    If it makes you feel any better I hate killing Irish people.

    Oh you mean in game...
    Bitter is the wind tonight,
    it stirs up the white-waved sea.
    I do not fear the coursing of the Irish sea

    At first I hated fighting the Danes in NTW or ETW, but that was only until I heard those obnoxious Swedish voices the Danish troops have, then I started enjoying it again! Bloody Swedes taking all the military jobs away from the real Danes.

    I'm sorry, i'll stop hugging my Irish friends. And I won't touch myself ever again either. That's right i'm half-Irish.

    Now where did I put my guinness...?

    For me the game is a gross departure from the norm.

    I greatly dislike playing as the French. Even in MTW I avoided them. It is like anybody but the French.

    I even regretted wiping out nosey and his boys when they invaded and seiged Hanover...but it sure looked nice at the end of the battle to see the army drop dead.

    I was perfectly fine with mowing down Americans in ETW. You just need to be desensitized a bit more.

    Not quite sure why anyone would feel anything killing units in a computer game unless they were detached from reality somehow, but if it makes you feel better just think of them as the ancestors of irritating people today. Historical abortion, you might call it.

    I feel no remorse at killing computer generated troops and if this makes me cold...so be it!
