- Over the top 1 vs. 1 animations, which looks way more impressive than "thrust-into-thin-air" system of old RTW
- Aside from pikemen, any type of formation should dissolve immediately after coming into melee => Epic Hollywood battle
- Intermittent cutscenes during battles (e.g. execution moves)
- Rock-paper-scissor combat system that proves beneficial for both competitive multiplayer as well as AI programming (Shogun 2' AI is the best!)
