    There is an official TWC Screenshot competition that I'm the head honcho of if anyone is interested. Its got the two categories you've suggested, Edited and Unedited plus a category for non-Total War screenshots, and a video category for Total War campaign/battle footage.

    Sure. I'll be more than interested to check it as always.
    Our ''local'' competition is a way to say thank you to our users though, for their love and support.

    I would say edited but to include stuff like GEM or ReShade in that category since you can produce photoshop-esque results.

    Also in general I think that means virtually everyone can participate without feeling too daunted about not owning a picture editing software of their own.

    I feel like unedited should be just a screenshot with the good old steam F12.

    Using a preset like GEM or Reshade is fine guys. Edited is using Photoshop or another photo editing program.

    Hopefully I will have my new rig built soon and I can take part.

    Or will you accept an EB2 screenshot as my placeholder?

    If anyone knows how to actually make the hotkeys work to turn off the draw distance in CE during a battle, please share!

    But seriously, you can be zoomed way out and in certain light conditions it really does look like an entire legion of Roman troops marching under your airship.

    Ok, I'm up for submitting something, either unedited or edited is fine with me.

    Unedited has won by a large margin. What's the next step Greek strategos?

    Yeah as it seems.
    We'll start the submission thread very soon.
    I need to discuss with the rest of the team if we'll have a separate thread for every competition-lottery or a dedicated one, with all of them included. What's the best from your experience ?

    No I meant a dedicated sub thread for our future competitions or just random ones every time.
    But your point is quite good actually. Do you believe a separate submission option will be better ?
