I like the RTS/TBS hybrid, although cannons and whatnot, are a bit more meh for me. I still need to finish a campaign of Medieval 2 and Rome though.
I'll be picking it up, the RTS tactical portions are fun, even if a little difficult and confusing since I've not played enough

first impressions not good
only thing that looks fun is the naval stuff. the AI of your infantry is horrible, i found them constantly walking towards gunfire and not responding until a few feet away, despite the fire at will toggle being on. very annoying to watch many men cut down by 80 lone long rifles because your damn guys refuse to return fire consistantly

Played it last night, the large naval battle are definitley going to need some practice, I managed to crash my flagship into another one of my ships which then sank.
Still won though.

That's a pain. Still, I can't really see many people being stupid enough to buy the expanded edition, so hopefully won't affect too many games. I broke my CD drive today, but I just got a lot of money for very little work so I've cancelled with Amazon and switched to the Steam version in desperation. 22 hours to go...

I have tried the tutorial, but I got board of the strange way you can't line up masses of troops for organisations in the pitched land battle (are you meant to split your force? I wanted to take all of mine around the back, but it lays out the troops strangely).
Anyway, the navel stuff is very cool, must try it some more, like the pitched battle which I've not selected.
As noted by others - the load times are horrendous though. It doesn't even seem to be doing anything on the HDD - it even takes forever to load the opening movie and main menu, ridiculous sadly
I don't want to play a campaign when I shy away from battles because of that
All of it does make me wonder how they'd do "future" ones, I mean, after this we basically get smaller and smaller amounts of troops and heavier and heavier armour (and no cavalry).

Got my copy on its way from Play. Posted yesterday. And I appear to be one of those muppets that b ought the special forces, including and exclusive Play extra unit (USS Enterprise Warship). Oh well, it seemed like a good idea at the time and I've had it on pre-order for days now.
