I might go for that hairstyle. It's mesmerising.

Napoleon was awesome.

That's fantastic facial animation!

And I love the unintentionally hilarious "big reveal" when the camera pulls back to show off the little guy in all his imperious glory. Aw!

Best teaser in a while, nice to see some non-gameplay with actual dramatic impact.

Napoleon's life and career are such that in order for this game's plot to underwhelm, Creative assembly would have to royally fuck it up in every department.
Awesome trailer, though Napoleon looks too old in it. he was around 35 in Austerlitz and 45 in Waterloo.
This may turn out to be my first ever RTS game.

That's some of the best animation I've seen yet...

My one concern is that it'll follow too closely along the lines of Empire. But hell, I liked Empire, so I suppose this will be good as well.

A Napoleon addon. Quel surprise.

Still, I've put >100 hours into Empire, and I won't mind an excuse to do so again.

Think we all saw this expansion coming.

Great teaser, though.

In fairness Napoleon, they were right about Russia.

Remembering the hideously broken buggy mess that (still is?) empire total war, I think I will pass.

@sneetch
He said "Prussia" not "Russia".
That said, it would still hold true for Russia, extreme winter conditions defeated his army, not any single Russian general.

Wow, I'm blown away, litterally! AMAZING facial animation and very epic setting! I bloody can't wait, and I haven't even seen one second of gameplay! Only other trailer that made me do the same was SW: The Old Republic.

Oh, and by the way, it's not an expansion, it's a standalone game.
