The competition is hot and heavy here in the PotW forum. This week we were blessed with a superb submission by mastaace. This ingenious tapestry combines literally hundreds of screenshots into a picture of a charging Ghulam, complete with lance. The reduced size here does not do this work justice, come see it Here

Fellow TWC'ers. The following documentary was created by Lord Chretzel some two years ago with the support of professors and fellow peers using a rendition of a TW modification some of you may well know (NTW2). It depicts the battles of Jena-Auerstedt in 1806, a year when history was said to end and a little known Corsican officer become king of all Europe.
The film itself was done as a free project by Lord Chretzel, a TW modder!, and runs some 41 minutes long. (Those of you who have but a moment to spare may watch the trailer.) Please take the time to enjoy the following documentary as it may change the minds of those doubtful of the upcoming TW game and bring inspiration to those who have studied this period for many a year.
RockPaperShotgun.com has posted a new exclusive interview with Empire: Total War's Lead Designer James Russell. During the Q&A they discussed political changes in the 18th century, changes to the campaign map, the role of Generals and naval battles.
we will soon have an exclusive Q&A session for E:TW with the game's developers.
We would like you to submit questions in this thread that you would like to see answered; of course, not all will be included but the shorter, more succinct and specific those are, the more chances are those will make the final list.
TWC Citizens can post their questions in this thread.
Please help us by not asking questions that have been answered already by CA or asked again in the thread, questions that regard matters like button colours and wig shapes and exact modding specifics.
