I highly doubt we'll ever see anything past the Crimean War with the TW battle model; the 1860s were the bookend to the days of close order drill, cavalry, close-support artillery, and set piece battles. While none of those things ever fell entirely out of the equation, by the mid 19th century:

The defensive infantry doctrines were coming into dominance (even if they weren't fully understood until the carnage of WWI made them impossible to ignore); Cavalry ceased to be a meaningful element of tactics and simply a means of getting infantry around faster; Rifled, precision artillery made the guns both immensely long-ranged and terribly powerful; command decisions were moved ever more steadily towards front-line officers and away from the field staff, changing major battles into a morass of tiny engagements between companies and regiments instead of a grandly architected movement of armies.

Not to say I wouldn't mind seeing them try, but the basic battle model hasn't changed since Shogun.
