& here's the list of features
the Addon will contain 4 Campaigns:
Britain: With England, Wales, Scottland,Norway, Ireland.
Crusade: Two Alliances vs. Each other: Jerusalem + Antiochia vs Egypt, Byzans,Turks and all together vs. Mongols
New World: Azteks, Maya, Apache,Tarasken, Chichimeken, Tlaxkalteken and Spanish Settlers under Cortes
East Europe: With German Knights, Poland, Lithuania, Danmark, Nowogrod
- They also added "Special abilities" for the historical persons in the 4 campaigns:
--> Richard I. can rally fleeing troups with the "Heart of the Lion" -talent.
--> Emperor Manuel of Byzanz can set confusion in the enemy lines (the enemy units will fight with each other) with his "Byzantine politic"-talent.
- The campaings have different targets and a different way of playing.
--> In the Eastern, the religion is more important (because of unrest and unit development -> you can only recruit teutonic knights in a catholic area).
--> In the New-World you have, if you play the spanish, only few Units at the start. So you have to look for alliances and trading routes. Maybe even find nativ american alliances, to recruit native units. You also need to become strong to fight the french and english, who will apear later in the new world. If you start as a native american fraction you also can have an alliance with the spanish, to get more advanced units. You also have to take care with the wars against the other native american fractions. Don't be to weak when more of the europeans arrive.
- Prestige points (at least in the new world campaign). For successfull missions or lucrative trading routes, you earn prestige and rise in rank. For each rank you get money and new unlocked units. If you lose battles or missions, your prestige and rank will also sink.
- More units on a battlefield.
- You can build Forts with water around it.... keep their position and which you also can conquer and use for your fraction.
- More + different mission targets: A noble man apears and asks for your help in a combat. If you are successfull, your reward will depend to how you won (how many you have killed).
- In the Britain szenario you can make -as an enemy of England- an alliance with renegate(?) english aristocrats. They ask for your help, to conquer a town. If you give the town after the victory to them, they will found a new anti-english fraction "Allianz der Barone"!. The expansion is 70% done and will appeaer at the end of this year
SP looks incredible as usual, no mention of MP...also as usual

I feel the new expansion will be ready before the patch
Like Moses, the Dalai Lama, and Dr. Phil, I am often asked to impart my wisdom and advice on those who cannot or will not help themselves. Even though I can't improve myself -- hard to top awesome -- I can help others improve.

I saw a preview in "GameStar" and they said they improve a lot. But mp will be shit. Not enough factions, Hotseat modus s only on the same pc and no word about things like friendlist, online ranking, dedicated servers etc etc. Im done with this game if the patch doesnt fix the worst bugs.

Info from the Total War newsletter:
Key Features:
We are pleased to announce, after much speculation and guess work on the part of the community, the arrival of the new expansion pack for Medieval II: Total War. Kingdoms will feature four new campaigns of the epic proportions fans have come to expect in Total War games. Britannia, The Crusades, The Teutonic Wars and The Americas finish off a thrilling line up of scenarios for even the most discerning of Total War players.
A host of new features accompanies the expansion. Some 23 playable factions join the melee, including Native American and European factions. In total more than 150 new units grace the battlefield, including the deadly Greek Flamethrower.
Kingdoms also features the ability to control multiple armies, including reinforcement armies, while new historical characters and events appear, such as the rise of titanic figures like William Wallace. With many new mission types, six new multiplayer scenarios and 20 new custom battle maps, Kingdoms is a fantastic addition to Med II that will satisfy any fan of the game.
