    Default Look at the king!!! Unique unit in battlefield for him?

    Judging by this screenshot, it seems that when the king is fighting that he will have a specific unit to him, not equal as other generals...

    Hopefully those are dismounted.

    I don't like kings that are infantry, they can't get away when they are in trouble.

    That is from the Norman campaign, so that would be a saxon unit, so that would be Huscarls, so they don't use horses...right?

    I think that's just the Saxon king and his huscarls from the tutorial. Most likely the kings of other nations are always riding horses.

    The tutorial Saxons use HRE skins and colours.

    I think dismounted generals/kings could add more morale to infantry and less to cavalry.... would be realistic....

    It not as much realistic as it is a matter of opinion and culture...

    Yes Henry V for instance fought on foot at Agincourt, although I hope most general units will be mounted. Nice if this is the case that the kings have a unique character.

    Yes this pic is cool but I'm affraid CA was more focused on excellent graphics and visual effects than improving game AI. I haven't seen much of M2TW but various screenshots so I predict "vanilla" version will come uncomplete as RTW did, but anyways mods will change that and there'll be lots of fun after all.

    Just read the new CA Blog, my friend, and it's obvious AI was part of the main focus for M2TW.

    Kings also had their own unit later in the game...
