A multiplayer campaign mode is possibly the most exciting games news I have heard in years! The series is awesome but like FM has only been making small steps forward each new game; this time with proper naval battles and a multiplayer campaign mode Empire should be great.

Hm. Sounds nice enough but I'm not buying Empire: Total War for the multiplayer function. I adore the TW franchise for it's single player campaigns and that's why I'll be buying this game. Too bad an internet activation is required (I think it works like Steam where you register once and then can activate "offline" mode) - sucks for those who don't have an internet connection.

Apparently it will work like a normal Steam activation.

Unfortunately I only have access to the Internet at work and will be adding this game to the list off all the other Steam games and all those released this year with 'activation' to the pile I won't be able to buy. Shame as it was looking like a good game and I enjoyed the last 2 total war games. Oh well its their loss I suppose. There are still plenty of games out there for people like me without an Internet connection or who object to 'activation'.
