    why what exactly?
    "Egyptians; to the young rebels, and to every one who was killed, bloodied or contributed in the simplest way, what you did has defied any description. you have the world on it's knees gazing at your bravery and determination. you have opened up a new chapter in Egyptian history, one that will be determined by people's love for this country" - an honorable revolutionary,

    He's talking about the "Imperial Edition" with "exclusive" units etc.

    You are correct. They do not know honour at all.

    They ripped me off with their ETW special edition, they will never succeed a second time.

    How true.

    The special forces edition is intended to fleece the casual user that CA seems intent to focus on. Isn't that the focus of the "new" CA -- graphic eye candy and a easy to kill AI that the casual users can stomp on?

    Thankfully we still have a strong MTW2 and RTW2 modding community. These games are going to be the only games with true replay value.

    Eh? Seems the special forces stuff is intended to fleece the obsessionists. The 'much-derided' casual gamer probably couldnt give a flying one about hms Elephant.

    What new CA?....its always been the same CA.

    are you saying that as a modder, a customer or both
    Let me persuade you with my powerful logic skills.

    In light of the Total War series, a quote from the theologian whom I respect the most:

    The Heavenly City outshines Rome, beyond comparison. There, instead of victory, is truth; instead of high rank, holiness.

    How horrible of a company to want to make extra money for extra things that people are willing to pay for, what sort of businessmen would do that (everyone...)

    NOTE: Extreme sarcasm, I could care less, or in fact I like that they have a special edition...

    But it comes in a pretty box!
    Bobbo was given an exclusive tour of CAs offices in 2009. I'm delighted to share my experiences with a behind the scenes look at ETW, including interviews, photographs of the ETW team at work and also the state of the art computing facilities, episode one
    part 1, part 2, part 3
    A behind the scenes look at ETW, episode two (beware language!)
    part 1, part 2, part 3, part 4

    ANd the biography, don't forget that.

    Exactly, especially since some people are saying that regular edition customers get to choose half of the units anyways, I honestly do not see what the problems are. How this makes them "dishonorable" is beyond me.
    I'm probably fanning the flames of the whiners here but I can't pass this opportunity up to see some of these posters scream for blood and what not.

    I was under the impression that the OP was referring to the left bottom corner.

    *Final packaging subject to change*

    That is what I thought you were referring to King Louis.

    But it is nonessential things. If I was to buy a new car, I can buy a car with a spoiler or without, only difference is the one with the spoiler is fancier and costs more...but the car does not function better because I have it.

    Because modding gets nerfed in order to accomodate special units.

    Been able to open up any ETW meshes lately?
