Hi guys,

I thought you might be interested in this little video that I filmed on my digital camera during a recent press trip to Stockholm, Sweden. Kieran and I flew over to do a series of presentations and interviews with the local press. We arrived at the venue two hours early to set up the equipment and run through the demo. The plan was to show off some naval footage and then give an in-game presentation of a Land battle, showing off many of the exciting new features. Everything was going smoothly until five minutes before the journalists were due to start entering the room, when our television started randomly turning itself off!  Here is the video that we made while awaiting a spare:

Miles Jacobson from Sports Interactive then came to the rescue and kindly lent us his television. He was in the next room to promote the forthcoming Football Manager 2009. I’m pleased to report that the rest of the day went very well, and event coverage should start appearing online and in magazines in the coming weeks.

As always, stay tuned to www.totalwar.com/empire for all the latest info on the game!

Thanks,

Mark O’Connell
