Next Totalwar Is...

[Colt374]

I have a couple of dreams for the total war franchise.... I can't see them ever happening, but it would be so nice...

* World War 1 Total War : Imagine a Total War game based around World War 1? The European Theatre was the only main one in that war, so it could easily transfer to the strategic game. The tactical battles would be slightly harder to adapt, but I think could be done pretty easily.
Of Course, a World War 2 Total War would also be great, but much harder to do even if it only covered the European Theatre. Tanks and Airstrikes could make the battles really interesting.

* A Full World Map Total War, sort of like Europa Universalis 2, set in the era after Medieval Total War. I know, the scope is much too large, way too many unit types required, but as a dream game I like the idea.

* And lastly, Conquistador Total War. Massive Aztec, Mayan etc armies battling in the New World would be great. Those same armies against numerically inferior but technologically superior Spanish Armies would be amazing! And if you incorporate the era after the Spanish Conquests, you could have English, French, Dutch, and various Native American Factions too. This one I could see being done with the current Total War engines VERY easily.

Hope you like my dreams....

I'm thinking an entertaining prospect could be a merger between Civilisation and Total War - with the whole world up for grabs... the game would be rather epic in scope - and could be rather difficult to produce.

But imagine starting say with the rise of the civilisations in the Fertile Crescent, and ending say with the conquering of the New World? And of course, everything in between, ranging across the whole world.

Heh... The Esquimaux as a faction could be rather amusing...
