I wouldn't be surprised to see Napoleon come in on the next full game, but I think the expansion to Medieval 2 will (and certainly should) have at least something to do with the Middle Ages!
Could be Ottomans, or back to Vikings, or a complete surprise, but I'd like to see something to bring the Dark Ages into the game. The first half of the Middle Ages keeps getting overlooked.

Logic would point to a revamp of VI. But I would hope they shoot a little higher, something new.

Just a history question, my knowledge of the era is limited at best. The Ottoman Empire was Turkey and Syria, Iraq all those sort of countries correct? Well aren't the Turks already in it (M2TW)? What is the difference between The Turks and the Ottomans?
