gode nyheter folkens: Demoen kommer i mårra

 

Hi guys,

 

 

I am pleased to report that our official Empire: Total War demo will be available via Steam from 4pm GMT on Friday 20th February.

 

Giving you a taste of the epic engagements that you'll be experiencing from 3rd March, the demo will take you through the basics of land and naval command and then unleash you in two historical battles!

 

You will get to play as the mighty British Empire as they do battle against the Americans in the 'Battle of Brandywine Creek' and then take on the French Navy in the 'Battle of Lagos'...

 

Battle of Brandywine Creek

 

After landing from his transport ships on the American coast, Major-General Sir William Howe led the British troops eastwards, with the intention of capturing Philadelphia.

 

In preparation, American General George Washington readied most of his units to defend from this frontal assault around the narrow crossing of Chad's Ford on the Brandywine. The Creek flows through the countryside of Pennsylvania, enveloped by sheer cliffs and heavily wooded hills on both sides. Safe in the knowledge the fast flowing creek could not easily be crossed; Washington was confident of holding his position.

 

However, more detailed surveillance of the terrain would suggest that alternative routes could turn the battle in the favour of the British.

 

Battle of Lagos

 

As so often in 18th Century warfare, French plans to invade England during the Seven Years War were reliant on ships from the naval base at Toulouse joining ships from Brest. The British had both ports blockaded, and the French had to wait for one of the blockading fleets to withdraw for re-supply before attempting any rendezvous.

 

The opportunity came when the British fleet under Admiral Boscawen at Toulon withdrew to Gibraltar. The French under Jean-François de la Clue-Sabran left Toulon, and began to make their way towards Brest. Passing the Straits of Gibraltar, the French were spotted by Boscawen's lookout ships.

 

Giving chase, Boscawen's fleet was only slightly larger than the French force, and caught up with them off the coast of Portugal where battle was joined. Take control of the British and defeat the French to end the invasion threat to Britain.

 

We hope that you enjoy playing our demo, which will give you a small taste of Empire: Total War action in preparation to leading your own empire to victory in March!

 

Thanks,

Hvilken faction tenkte folk å spille med da? Tror jeg starter med sverige og tar over skandinavia :D

Går først gjennom RtI, når jeg er ferdig der hopper jeg til enten Storbrittania, Prøyssen eller Sverige. Mellom der et sted skal jeg forsøke å låse opp Danmark-Norge og opprette verdensherredømmet vi alle har drømt om så lenge ;)

Hvordan er det med kavaleri mot infanteri? Virker som at fotsoldatene blir meid ned av ridende ryttere. Men etter min fornuft syns jeg disse fotsoldatene burde gjøre mye skade til kavaleriet, siden disse muskettene (og riflene) er jo like lange som spyd (med bajonett på).

Kavaleriet er mye svakere i dette spillet enn i de andre total war spillene, du kan ikke storme rett på med kavaleri da blir de bare skutt ned.

 

Når det gjelder mele er infanteri svake mot kavaleri, med mindre de er i firkant, dette har med at infanteriet er rett og slett redd for dem og fordi når man sitter høyere opp har man fordel. infanteriet ble heller sjeldent trent i bruk av bajonet, mens kavaleri var trent til bruk av sverd
