[@inertjohnjunk]

Shogun 2 had some really cool matched animation charge kills for both infantry and cavalry. So it's not impossible.

[@31er_ohne_AMG]

This is one of the better charges in matched combat. I remember in Rome 2 how a charge resulted in hugging and kissing. Literally running into a group and pushing themselve into the other ones. In your exmaple we can see how some troops are swinging their blades, some are still charging with their shield forward. It's much better than Rome. But the footage is too short and the angle doesn't show much, so I could be completely wrong and it could be worse than Rome 2

[@MedjayofFaiyum]

Loving the look of the game, and liking the differences shown between the four faction leaders. However, I would emphasize as feedback: - While having unique units for each faction which is great, it would be great to have faction banners like you had in Shogun 2. - Units marching with their shields seems a bit off. I'd have it where Roman Legions marching moving their swords but hold their shields in place. - Chariots could have more animations for melee combat? I'd see a few here and there - Liking the footprints in the sand. - Once you conquer all of Egypt, can you recruit all units, and can you recruit all units I imagine in custom battle? I'd also want to see where is MESOPOTAMIA! Loving the game!

I do hope we get a family tree like 3k has or combine the total war Troy roster with pharaoh’s like warhammer does

Considering that you're playing as the current heirs to the throne with personal buffs to campaign and units, I find it very unlikely for there to be a family tree mechanic. You'll probably have a pool of generic lord types to recruit And, to be honest, I prefer it this way: there's no point in having an army without a general and I'd like to set my own numbers, instead of arbitrarily waiting for my current ones to get laid
