EDIT
Several hours after I posted this, the Modding Kit downloads a 39.1MB Patch. Looks like Jack Lusted spotted it, CA took it down.

Well, looks like we'll have to wait till CA officially announces it to see if this Charlemagne DLC is really true, maybe somewhere around Christmas.

From where did you get that? For example the information about factions....

charlemagne could be a excellent DLC of a historic campaign,if CA does things right.
hopefully that CA do not copy the units of the great campaign and put in this DLC, there should be no units of this epoch.
i'm looking at the list of some units that are identical to the campaign of the last roman as the skutatoi and its variants.the units must be for all the factions,historical and of the epoch.
hopefully that CA be honored and we sell a new historical campaign in all its aspects
CA hopefully be aware that this happens in another era and everything must change,starting with the units should all be new to all factions,as uniforms,armor,shields and weapons,appearance of the cities and their names,among other things do see that this is another epoch.

I'm not a fan of campaign DLCs but this looks interesting.

**Fanest** · October 06, 2015, 08:35 AM

wow this would be the best DLC possible! good work CA, dont

it up

**Anibal at portas** · October 06, 2015, 08:47 AM

hopefully that CA a historical aspect to the important general of the campaign as charlemagne among others.

**Fanest** · October 06, 2015, 08:56 AM

judging by the regions included it seems they will leave out whole eastern part of the map - including ERE, Bulgars, Arabs etc. all these could be really interesting - Bulgar - ERE wars, ERE - Arab wars

I would have to disagree because of the fact that one of the factions is byz for Byzantine.

Even so, with this DLC, our modding community will be provided the assets needed to cobble together a good Medieval III mod utilizing the primary campaign map.

**JERUSALEM** · October 06, 2015, 08:56 AM

I thought they will release the Hereclius Campaign pack, the Charlemagne is very remote from the Attila's period and it is more close to Medieval II's period, actually, it is the Midlde Ages. So, is that kind
of preparation for the Medieval III Total War?! I do not know. Still Charlemagne's age is totally different period and it need a lot of work to do it properly, i do not know how they will make it possible in one culture pack.

really,if CA does things right is a new game.equivalent to what was napoleon total war to total war empire dedicated to a historical figure.

Too close to Rise of Islam for comfort. If CA even want to touch Rise of Islam with a pole, it would be well after the death of the Prophet Muhammad.

**Ciruelo** · October 06, 2015, 09:01 AM

I would have an orgasm if what you say is true. I hope that Taifa of Badajoz will be playable or there will be a mod that will make them playable soon.

**Anibal at portas** · October 06, 2015, 09:09 AM

hopefully that in the campaign have important historical events as the death of the brother of charlemagne and can inherit and unify the kingdom by scripts without having to fight.for greater immersion and historicity in the campaign.

**Abdülmecid I** · October 06, 2015, 09:07 AM

The similarities between the Charlemagne campaign and WoS are more than obvious, both of them being the last DLCs, featuring a mini-campaign whose timeframe is not very near to that of the main campaign, so I'll expect soemtthing sililar regarding its quality. The people who liked WoS will like Charles and the guys who were disappointed will also get disappointed. It's a pity that the map doesn't expand to the west of the Italian penninsula and the Ionian sea, but if it was, it would be more of an expansion than a mini-campaign, bt the pro-Slav and pro-Bulgar crowd will be very disappointed. Personally, I'd like to play as the Abbasids, but apparently they also won't be present in the game.

**Ciruelo** · October 06, 2015, 09:07 AM

WoS were bad because:
1. Was a Rome2 DLC, which have no immersion in campaign
2. Was too easy to win as Sparta in a few turns
3. It was greeks vs greeks so hoplites vs hoplites, no faction diversity

This could be something different. A lot of things happened in Europe while the Charlemagne's campaign with a lot of faction diversity. It's a time period that needs to be in TW

**The Chocolate Jesus** · October 06, 2015, 09:36 AM

I truly hope this is legit. If it is we'd have an extremely diverse pool of factions at our hands and a pretty big map.

**Darios** · October 06, 2015, 09:39 AM

This is going to go over so badly....CA is making a huge mistake by not expanding the map into the East.

I see that there are Slavic units, as generic as they are named....

This looks like Wrath of Sparta in Charlemagne clothing! Wait until Anthonius sees this...
