rome total war 2????

[Gimli]

I know this is comment is probably more suited to a Shogun page, but I would LOVE to see a Shogun 2 or maybe a Chinese/India Total War! (you could throw in Burma/Siam for good measure...) They haven't done one in Asia for quite a while...

I definately hope this'd be true, but that source doesn't seem that reliable; to me anyway.

Suitable for this page.

CA will definitely make a Rome II in the future, but I hope not in the immediate future, there are still lots of other interesting eras & areas that hasn't been covered yet.

Let's hope CA does go Asia next time.

i would definitely buy a rome 2.
i love the unit types, and there is a lot more they could do with it.
im actually probably gonna start back up rome 1 once my friend gives me it back..

I can just imagine Rome 2: Total War, running on a nice graphic engine, as good as Empires anyway, with good animations and naval battles. Ah, it would be living the dream. Anyway even M2TW graphics would be great because of the individual troops, although a Rome: Total War that featured a complete map from all of Europe to the edge of India cutting off halfway through the Steppes would be great. With enough provinces such as 400, to cover all the extra miles. This would make antiquity era mods fantastc.

Empires Engine definately looks promising for a sequel to Rome, as KipDan said.

I don't think World War 2 total war is possible. Battles in world war 2 didn't involve lining up on a field. They were very complex. I hope R2TW comes out next. I want Ancient Naval battles Damn it!

i agree..,but then world war 1:Total War is possible then,they are lining up....or using loose formation to find cover for themself....then firefight...can be done,right??
still,i have same thopught with you too,i am not enough with Rome yet!hopefully they will come out with better battle AI this time...Ancient Naval battles ,i read them in history books,i love the ramming of ships!!then close combat take over........
Hopefully come out with larger map(at least to India,i read in history Roman did sent 40000 men to India,only 10000 made it back..),with more cities to conquer!at least 250 cities.....

then i will suggest the title as "Rise of Mongolia:Total War",coz mongolia conquer China,to middle east,to Russia,to vienna river,send troops to Japan,conquer Korea,south Asia(that include your Burma/Siam then...).....in this map,i think we can play huge type of units include most of east to west then...

Sources?

[guineawolf]

Sources?

the source is from my comic style history book(history book that got text and cartoon like pictures) that i lent from school library when i was about 10 to 12,now i dun have it......too bad...coz now i want to know more about Romans,and now i just dun have it...or them.....

but..i still remember that is the era around got Caeser,Anthony and Pompeii.....coz i read that around that era....quite interesting though.....

now i am checking wikipedia for that source is reliable or not.....i will tell you until i find out.....at the smae time enjoy the poenician conquest......hehehe...

Could it possibly have been Alexander's Greeks you were referring to? I don't have the exact number (and I'm too lazy to look it up), but I'm pretty sure Alexander lost a huge chunk of his men fighting in India and on the way back.

[Quintus.JC]

Or else could it be the lost legion at Carrhae?

The battle is also believed to have eventually led to the first Sino-Roman relations. According to Pliny, in 53 BC, after losing at the battle of Carrhae, 10,000 Roman prisoners were sent by the Parthians to Margiana to help guard the eastern frontier of the Parthian Empire. The Han Chinese later captured this area and the Roman prisoners were likely among the first Europeans to meet the Chinese directly.

i am sure it is not Alexander,coz Alexander sent 150000 to India,Roman sent only 40000,and it say they being ambushed by Indian(lost plenty of coz),and it is around Caeser,Pompeii,and Anthony age...but not near to that time of coz,coz i only remeber i read Caeser,Pompeii,and Anthony age at the same time,that book talking about the rise of Rome it seems....

Or else could it be the lost legion at Carrhae?

no,it say there is 10000 made it back,most lost in the way back part by injured,part by starve to dead if not mistaken....

it can be very large scale of timeline of history to find out what event is that...(the question should be when it happen....)
i will keep searching......

I think you're referring to the battle of Carrhae, where Marcus Linicus Crassus was killed and the remainder of the force was led back by Gaius Cassius Longinus. I have no clue on how a Roman army of 40,000 men could've marched through enemy territory all the way to India.

[Feyr Tehl]

That was what I was thinking, the Romans never even had a border close to India. You are either talking about the battle of Carhae which is roughly the same as what you have said and would probably be exagerrated in the book you were reading, or you are thinking of the Mummy 2 but in a different place.
