Ahh, probably it is actually KING ARTHUR units and RTW campaign mao and someone who is a bit cleverer told them the possible factions.

I saw the preview of some Catholic Monks wielding maces, some time age in the CA homepage.. weird actually what CA can do.

yeah the demo is pretty good as a teaser.

The Scorpion chariot (ballista carriage) is devastating. I didn't like the unit concept.

How possibly can a scorpion lead a chariot? And I believe it is Schiltron...

But otherwise it is good? I believe that someone somewhere said that the Huns had a phalanx or Schiltron?

I'm a bit busy tonight so I'll play more tomorrow.

It's interesting - better than the RTW demo. There are some more battle features like shield wall and shilitron. Veteran MTW players will appreciate morale status such as "unhappy that friends are routing".

There are lots of more units. There's one called Hounds of Houlin (or something), and scorpions on chariots.
