Release date pushed back to March so they can add:

Significantly the additional time will also allow us to implement the underlying technology for a much desired feature (thanks to your feedback!); a multiplayer campaign mode. An opportunity to participate in the 1 versus 1 multiplayer campaign mode beta will be made available to all Empire Total War buyers post release.

CAMPAIGN MULTIPLAYER!!!!!!

Same, more so when I get into the MP campaign.

Loving the TW games like I do, so much of my time is going to be spent conquering the world (again!)

Just got an email from Amazon saying this will dispatch earlier than expected - 4-6 March.  Which, given Amazon's ability to deliver games after release, means its probably already available :)

Given up on any demo being released.

I'll wait until the game goes live in 2 weeks to play it.  Makes the anticipation all the sweeter.

blame Dawn of War 2 requiring steam for installationand activation took me an hour just to be able to play the game, methinks they servers are straining with the patch and release of E:TW demo ;)

Played it. Jesus, ETW is going to be epic. Amazing detail - admittedly i played on high settings with my rig, but seeing crewmen board ships and fight ont he decks for control is just droooool worthy.
