This morning I had a nice Idea: Star Voices would be nice in RTW, but they're just to costly. BUT Movies are dubbed in Germany and in a lot of other Countries too http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif

So I found the Website below, which is an Enceclopedia of all german Dub-Speakers and Collected those Speakers who have spoken Roles that are nice for RTW:

Thomas Fritsch - spoke the main character Maximus in the famous Movie GLADIATOR Throughout Gladiator is the most popular Rome-Movie his Voice was perfect for the Roman Battlevoice and Advisors...

--------------

Joachim Höppner - spoke GANDALF in LothR, through the LothR-Hipe also infected Germany he would also be fine... Could you imagine a Better Voice for Druids than the same one of Gandalf??? He would make a perfect Battlevoice for the "Barbarian" Cultures

Barbarian?

Thomas Danneberg - always speaks for Arnold Schwarzenegger So remember CONAN He would also be nice, but he might be expensive...
--------------

Jacques Breuer - spoke ARAGON in LothR, he could be an alternative if Höppner doesn't want. Aragon is also a Character fitting on "Barbarian" Cultures...
--------------

These Voices are not really more expensive than "normal" Dub-Speakers, but higher in Quality and the association with the Movie Roles improoves the depth of Gaming Also you can then write "Mit den Synchronstimmen von Russel Crowe und Ian McKellen" on the Gamepacks, which other Videogame has that?

Isn't that a fine Idea????????? http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif

EDIT: Joachim Höppner and Jacques Breuer already have experiance with dubbing Videogames They spoke Gandalf and Aragon in LothR/The Two Towers Videogame for the german Version, so CA only had to ask them

That's a good maybe costly idea. I think CA is too conservative for this. OFC if the quality and sales are supported by this, they'll buy it.

I'm not sure but I think it's the guy responsible for marketing. Or you could just wait till someone from CA sees your suggestion here. I doubt they'll do it just for the german version. Who knows maybe they will, plenty of TWers in Germany.

could be a nice touch. But if romanian isn't taken into consideration, I really prefere english or french http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cgi/emoticons/wink.gif

GAH

Vanya sez... use famous Jim Bellushi lines instead

Some examples might help.

1) Instead of having a sap field general say something bland like "Attack" or "Unleash Hell now, will ya?", have the general exclaim at the top of his lungs: "FOOD FIGHT"

2) When you send an emmissary to meet with a foreign ruler, it would be nice if the first words out of his mouth were "I'M ON A MISSION FROM GOD".

3) If your Senator is about to give a speach, he should open his oratory with a hefty chant of "TOGA TOGA TOGA". *ESPECIALLY* since this is a Roman game

Feel free to add additional anecdotes from Jimmy-boy as you come across them.
