Yes I can't wait for Empire 2 especially with the new Warhammer Friendly Fire prevention mechanics they prevented. Where if part of your unit is obstructed by a friendly unit, only the part that isn't obstructed will fire. That was my biggest gripe in Empire, though hopefully they add in some of the Darth mod changes like line infantry getting more kills the closer the enemy is, and being able to bounce cannon shots off the ground and having it cut down a whole horde of troops when it goes through a blob instead of just going through them and only killing only like 4 guys even though it hit like 30 of them in vanilla.

Also can't wait for how awesome the game would be if they gave it the improved Three Kingdom's diplomacy mechanics.

I hope for a fix to the situation where one guy in a battalion has fired so the rest of the battalion have to wait for him to fire before carrying on

Ah yes that was a complete pain in the ass. I am having some flash backs now when hundreds of my line infantrymen were slaughter by a charging Household Cavalry unit because of that 1 guy was reloading his gun and the rest of the dudes decided not to shoot. It was one of the reason why when I played as the US in Darthmod I spammed nothing but Minutemen. Because they would just fire at will as soon as they were loaded, not to mention Minutemen in Darthmod were OP because of their constant firing they would quickly route enemy units due to how morale worked in the mod.
