total war 3

[Maeran]

Why not Chinese Total War? The original game in the series was set in Japan.

I like the idea of Warring States (I think there's a mod, but I'm a little wary of downloading yet another mod) China, I think it works well for the TW game mechanics. You could even have the Emperor represented by the senate/pope thing. Sun Tzu as an ancillary with a command bonus

But I would like to see a new game in the pike and musket period. It just sneaks in at the end of M2TW but other than the cossacks RTS I think this period is poorly served.
