I would certainly prefer Fantasy: Total War to, say, Antarctica: Total War or M32TW.

Antarctica:TW

Lets see, we can have a polar Bear faction thats on the verge of extinction. A penguin faction that is very strong but weak against the sealion faction, there has to be a whale faction too, they have the biggest units but move the slowest.

Polar bears are North pole. I can just hear the screams of "historical inaccuracy" now.

Maybe an expansion pack? Antarctica: Total War, Polar Bear Invasion.

a fantasy game would have lots of developer advantages; no research, just a bit of imagination and public domain fantasy concepts, no problems balanacing historically very unequal factions against each other, a setting ( generic medieval/tolkien-inspired fantasy) that a lot of ( casual)gamers are familiar with and interested in without being wargame or history buffs, the possibility of very varied units etc.

Personally, I'd love to see something using the other half of the world. So similar to Medieval, but with the orient. Focus being on China, like R:TW's focus on Rome, but which has Japan, India, Mogolia, Korea, and everyone else, stretching as far as Persia.

Maybe call it Dynasty: Total War, or China: Total War. So it's like Rome in that China is the focus, and is spreading its power [I forget the historical period which would work for this, but I'm sure I remember reading about a point in history when China expanded massively]. The whole point being, though, to have all those "What if...?" questions about alternate timelines played out.

I googled for it and there's a mod here which has similar ideas. Is there anything which has taken off yet?



I'd also love a fantasy Total War. If anyone has played HOMM or AoW they'll know that it'd work.

I'd particularly like to see a Warhammer: Total War, because of the amount of character the factions have, and how the unit rosters are already quite expansive. Magic would be cast with a similar system. I can't see the game happening soon, though, because of how Games Workshop doesn't want a game that'd play at all similarly to the table top version, which is their main source of income.
