We have launched our brand-new Total War Blog redesign today at www.TotalWarBlog.com.  To kick things off, Jason Turnbull from CA Oz has posted an interesting new Blog about Medieval II: Total War Kingdoms!

 

While you are there, be sure to check out the "Who Are We?" section for profiles on some of the main Blog contributers from CA and SEGA.   We hope you like the new layout, and look forwards to reading your comments.

Congratulations to Cezare White who created this months winning Create A Calendar competition design.  You can download the winning Wallpaper to your desktop in a variety of sizes here, and check out some of this months other entries (including a unique contribution from Alex at SEGA!) in our Calendar Blog.

 

 

  

Riding into battle on strong steeds and wielding brutal war forks, Dievas Guards are this week's featured Kingdoms 3D Unit.   

An Official CA Discussion section was recently opened in our forums where staff post questions to encourage debate and get feedback from the community.  The first of which called for any questions regarding Kingdoms, and after four pages of requests, Brendan Rogers from CA Oz stepped in and answered a whopping 31 of them. The results of which have been turned into a brand-new Blog.

 

PC Zone magazine has two great Total War features in the June 2007 issue. The first shines the spotlight on Medieval II: Total War Kingdoms, and includes fresh new screenshots.  The second lists Rome: Total War in 6th place in their 101 Best Games Ever!

 

Back by popular demand, we have added not one, but five new Medieval II: Total War Kingdoms 3D Units!  Featuring Calivermen and Ceitherne from Britannia, Constable of Jerusalem and Canons of the Holy Sepulcher from Crusades,and  Burgher Pikemen from the Teutonic Campaign.  Click here to check them out.

 

 

Computerandvideogames.com recently spoke with Brendon Rogers, a designer and artist on Medieval II: Total War Kingdoms. During the interview, Brendon discusses moated forts, technology trees, and reveals more about the exciting new factions available.  For all this and more, read their exclusive interview.

 

 

Continuing our Medieval II: Total War Kingdoms coverage, Gamespot has posted an exclusive Q&A with Penny Sweetser, game designer at The Creative Assembly.  Revealing brand new details, they have also posted four never-before-seen screenshots.  And people thought that Friday the 13th was unlucky...

In the latest edition of PC Gamer, Medieval II: Total War Kingdoms features in a 6-page preview, and also graces the magazine's cover with some eyecatching artwork.  Here are some quotes from the mag: 

 

"It's bigger and more ambitious then anything before. This isn't a normal expansion. It's an invasion of our play time".  

 

"Total War made bigger, more event-driven and more personal. We're very excited".  

 

The May 2007 edition of PC Gamer is available now at all good magazine stockists across the UK!
