Hey everyone,

So I'm pretty new to TW, got the game over the holidays on a Steam sale and have spent a lot of time with Medieval and Empire. I'm playing on my laptop, so the experience is not exactly graphically thrilling, especially when I see screens of what the game COULD look like.

So I've decided that I'm going to build a desktop around May/June when the new nVidia cards come out. This beings us to my question. The tech and gaming websites that I follow (shout out to Tested and Giantbomb!) have had many of their PC gamers switch over to using their main television as a monitor for gaming. This idea is very enticing to me, as I already have a good solution for placement of the mouse and keyboard and I have a large TV. Thing is, TW is very text heavy, so I'm wondering how readable and clear it is when played from, for example, ~8 feet on a 54" TV. The most I can run right now is Empire, but insights form Napoleon or Shogun 2 are welcome.

Hope you guys can help!
