Total War just needs to create a game based in like World War II or World War I era. Or Space Age. Or Mythology. That would be pretty cool.

A couple people have mentioned the American Civil War and then it was disparaged for only having 2 sides. However, what if the whole continent was involved in the game? Within the Civil War, many tribes were sorting out which side to support. If there were some amount of division by state, maintaining the loyalty of different states could be an integral part of the game. Britain could have also been conceivably involved and traded with both sides to some degree. Russia also sent some Monitors over expressing some support of the Union. Meanwhile, just to the south, Mexico just finished a civil war of their own and was promptly invaded by France which eventually involved Cinco de Mayo among other things. And Spain briefly reabsorbed the Dominican Republic. So it seems there are enough other players to keep it interesting.
Britain and France could have intervened, The Union reached out to Mexico. Almost all of the western Indian tribes rebelled at their treatment and went to war. Russia in 1863 threatened to go to war should Britain or France enter hostilities. Other States and localities had threatened secession, including New York City. It is not a matter of having too few factions. It would be tying them in, in some coherent fashion.
Education: that which reveals to the wise,
and conceals from the stupid,
the vast limits of their knowledge.

I personally would like to see a Total War: China. A lot of great time periods.
The American Civil War would be great, if only if, they work on the BAI. Otherwise, it will have limited play-ability.
where phoenicians were setting up colonies the sea peoples collapse of ancient greece cavalry used in warfare by scythians in 9th century BC cimmerians etc.??
6 years old thread... but given that we're in the Empire Total War forum, an ETW2 would actually be worthwhile. Huge empires and huge battles.![]()
