    Default NTW vs ETW

    I have searched for a simular topic but could not find one. If there is one please point me in that direction. I like most of you am a Total War junkie. Limited play time in my adult life has led to me being unable to actually conquer like I have in the older Total War games. I want to start a new campaign but am torn between ETW and NTW. I was looking for others opinions on why they like one over another. A compare and contrast if you will. What appeals to you about Empire and Napoleon?

    You "forgot" the cons, Hedge Knight:

    NTW
    -Short, little, dude with an appetite for killing Russians, Prussians, Italians, British, and Iberians
    -No Samurai

    ETW
    -Pesky Natives with balls of steel (steel of which they don't even have!)
    -No short, little, dude with an appetite for killing Russians, Prussians, Italians, British, and Iberians

    Both
    -No Mod Tools!

    But in all seriousness, I've enjoyed the Empire campaign more, but many players prefer the Napoleon Campaign. I just like the epicness and scale of Empire.

    I prefer ETW over NTW as the latter to me is simply a narrower graphically spruced up game.
