Unit Description

[Wittman]

Didnt notice anyone brought this up so....when we right click on unit cards in rtw2,will we see their history,description,what are they and all that,like in all previous tw games....or no?

[Revan The Great]

I see no reason why they wouldn't offer some sort of in-game descriptions of units, similar to previous games or even Shogun 2's encyclopedia archive.

I hope that this time around they talk a bit more about the history behind the unit, not just what you'd use the unit for in battle which is pretty much all Shogun 2's descriptions were.

I was lucky enough to play the battle of the nile, and I remmember looking for the little encyclopedia page to pop up. At least for that historical battle demo, the feature has been removed.

[Wittman]

No description? :/

[Raimeken]

Did you pause the game? Right clicking for a description only works when paused in a battle if I recall.

[DogSoldierSPQR]

Yeah, it only works when you paused the game.

Wow, if this feature is gone then I will really consider wether I buy the game or not. The unrealistical and unhistorical cartoons on the units cards nearly killed it for me, but without descriptions...? I cannot imagine CA takes simplification so far.

I'm really worried about this: this could be another immersion-breaking lack of the game.
I cannot imagine a total war without the "encyclopedia" or menu that have descriptions for units, buildings, factions, agents and so on.
Can we have some official words about it, please?

The german magazine gamestar reported that there is an encyclopedia.
