Whats next for Total War...

...after the Medieval 2 expansion?

Does anyone know if there is any official word or anything?

If not, what do you think is next? I personally would like to see something dealing with China; it has an incredibly long history with multiple dynasties, and a huge empire to explore and battle over. Just imagine; you could battle the mongols, try to invade japan, and even go far south into the south pacific and northwest into russia!

I also think a Total War dealing with a fantasy setting would be pretty neat, but might offend their audience since the games seem to be based on realistic battles and stuff.

I'm hoping their next game will have a proper QA cycle and be based around the Napoleon era. I have no idea when that was or if you can even call it it, but that's what I'm hoping for anyway :)BounceDK

Exactly, 1792 - 1815. The French Revolution - the age of Exploration (well that was a little earier) - when Europe 'sees' the world. I'm playing Imperial Glory which covers this era even though not superior technically as Total War however a fine substitute.

I saw this ad on a magazine that if you preordered the expansion to Medievil total war 2 then.. AA I forgot.But it said something about shogun wars or something idk might be wrong im pretty forgetfulchilenito3

During the Rome: Total War era, there were debates in forums about whether gunpowder units would work with the TW battle system. Well, MTWII has proven that it's possible, and godamn fun. I think that the next game in the series will be based in the 19th century. Napoleonic: Total War has always been a fan favourite

There is supposed to be an announcement from CA about the next TW game, in the near future i believe.

china would be kewl allright. id love to see it.

they could have one based around the time of the british empire.

i think the med 2 expansion is hinting that there going to be doing something based on the history of the US though...or perhaps have histories and societies that cover the whole american continent. oo that could be kewl...the aztecs and such like (i fully admit i know nothing about the history of the american continent).

whatever it is....its bound to be amazing. so far CA havent messed up at all imho.

this probably isnt the best idea, but how about a modern(ish) setting?

maybe from civil war on up

the logistics are kinda nuts, but it could be fun :0

TW is about tons of people in groups rushing at eachother, if there was a group together in the open in moderm times, they'd get bombed. There wouldn't be "hey theres a group of people there, lets go engage them". it would be "requesting airstrike at XX,XX".

Imperial Glory rocks, too bad the battle sucks though :(

Napoleonic Era definately, the only game that's set in the Napoleonic Era recently is Imperial Glory, unless there are others Ive not heard of.A Asiatic or Modern theme seems boring, one set in The America's might be interesting, but if the beginning is nothing but native americans that could be very boring and empty, so the Napoleonic Era should get some attention.

You see, I'm exactly the opposite. I think the Asian (specifically Chinese) theme would be very interesting while an American setting would be fairly boring (unless it was predominantly naval engagements). And quite honestly, I have absolutely no interest in the Napoleonic Era.

Different People, Different Tastes.

Your AsianCentric, Im Eurocentric.

I still stand by the Napeoleonic Era, one of my favorite ages in history.

You could have Ghandi as a "hero" unit!mrbojangles25

From the people who brought us Conan the Librarian, Underwater Bingo for Teens, and Raul's Wild Kingdom, comes:

"Next week on U62: he's back, and this time, he's mad, Ghandi II. No more mister passive resistance. He's out to kick some butt. This is one bad mother you don't wanna mess with."

Dang...thank you for bringing up Ghandi as a hero unit, Bo...that brought back some really good memories! :lol:
