  • Emperor Manuel of Byzantine can "confuse" enemy units, that they hit them self.
• The campaigns have different targets and a different way of playing it. In the Eastern, the religion plays a big role (because of unrest and unit development -> you can only build Teutonic knights in a Catholic area) in the New World if you play the Spanish have only few Units and you have to look for alliances and trading routes.
• More Units on a battlefield.
• Forts with water around it.... keep their position and which you also can conquer and use for yourself.
• More + Different Mission Targets: A noble man appears and asks for your help in a combat. If you are successful, your reward will depend to how you won (how many you killed).
• In the Britain Scenario you can make as enemy of England an alliance with renegade English aristocrats. They ask for your help, to conquer a town. If you give them the town after the victory, they will found a new anti-English fraction "Allianz der Barone"!
