uses the improved Mount and Blade: With Fire & Sword engine

Fire and Sword was originally a mod for the first Mount & Blade game and did not include Any improvements that Warband had and it also left over a large number of bugs/glitchs that was fixed in Warband.

Some say Fire and Sword slightly improved the overall combat hitboxs and responsiveness when compared to Warband, Other than that Fire and Sword is a glorified Mod

I would imagine they would use Warbands latest build as that is more up to date than F&S

I'm pretty sure WFAS is on the Warband engine... only Warband and WFAS have normal mapping, which the original game lacks, which is why I think it uses the Warband engine.

It's still an awesome game multiplayer either way, I actually prefer it to Napoleonic Wars.

Nope, it uses the old M&B engine unfortunately.

Everything I recall, but can't seem to find now, says that Warband is still the more up to date engine as well.

Game looks cool though!
