Since we still have no certainty about the sequel, I would be interested in your opinion which period is better.
I have to confess I don't know enough about the Roman Period. Personally I think it was a very colourful time, and is unique in that it covered most of Europe. However, i am a bit afraid that it would be boring, because basically roman warfare was about Infantry, discipline and quadratic formations.
IMHO the Crusaders Period is the most interesting period of war in histora and fits the STW Engine perfectly. The whole theater was torn into small areas ruled by their individual ambitious leaders. War was commonplace. The look of weapons, armour, and heraldry was fantastic. People went to the Holy Land full of zeal, because they thought they were actually go to heaven!
But what I particularly like is the role that castles played at the time. If Creative assembly get it right, there should be long, graphically stunning sieges with catapults, siege towers, mining of walls, etc ... As far as I remember there has never been a game that accurately depicted medieval sieges before, so this could be really something.
Waiting for comments
