    The scene with the woman is a S2 Geisha like agent I think we are going to see in Rome. You can tell that by the way she murders her victim. Seeing that thing really disappointed me at first as an overall opinion over the trailer, because in the ancient era, at least in Europe, we didn't had that kind of things and even if it was a great idea in S2, I don't want unrealistic features in a new game ported from other just because they were great there. I hope I am wrong, but I don't want to see a "woman" assassin agent in Rome 2. That's just stupid, really.

    Hopefully you are wrong indeed, because those agents would be nonsense. Maybe they just wanted some sex like every film about Roman times had and then she had to murder that guy so it fit to the other two scenes. That's my hope at least.

    On second thoughts I think that screenshot is probably either an animated intro-movie or artwork.

    It would be far better if they did the same scenes, but with Ptolemies and their sisters

    They needed Romans, though.


    As for the pictures:

    Just read a preview by a German computer game magazine and the reporter says the graphics aren't fully developed yet and still had some errors so they couldn't show animated pictures yet. He calls the pictures screenshots, though: http://www.gameswelt.de/articles/pre..._Ei/index.html

    The history channel (american tv network) had a series where the would recall ancient battles and they would use rome tw graphics and i thought that was extremely cool. Now all they have is alien shows

    Woot just randomly saw this on the main forum menu, awesome. Maybe it'll get me back into TW. Hope it's good, will follow. Cant believe it's been, what, 8 years already since RTW? Seems so short a time.

    I doubt it's an in-game screenshot as well. Just a reminder that Empire and Shogun 2 previews had screenshots that didn't even exist in the final game.

    I um... I got real chills at the end of the live action video.

    The echoes of the original Rome: Total War theme. Man.

    It was like a love letter to my nostalgia.
    Forward, march!

    I really don't get the people about historical accuracy in the live action trailer. They got a 40% increase in budget. This is showing in the marketing. That trailer is going to entice a lot of people to watch this game because it is A) Sexy B) Badass and C) Well Done. It's enticement, looking at it for any purpose as to parse out what will be in the game is stupid.
