Multiplayer Ideas

I am very happy to hear that CA are implementing 1vs1 campaigns into NTW.

However would it not be possible to have more than 2 players? - I mean, the game needn'y be constantly running: The game could be 'saved'/paused until members returned to continue it. - Is this not possible?

Another thing: why don't CA make some minigames that could keep players entertained whilst waiting for others to play their turns, or why not allow them to browse the total war website/forums/related stuff on the internet through the game so that one does not get bored. - Maybe even allow players to upload their own music files or videos?

Another idea I have: I am quite heavily involved in RTW clans and frequently the clans have alliances and wars and they like to set up embassies on each other's websites and all that diplomacy. I was thinking, why doesn't CA make some sort of clan based application for the multiplayer, in which clans could form and start their own empire on some land and battle other clans or ally with others to expand their empire and trade resources and gain rank.

There could also be tournaments organised through this too between clans or players in which awards could be won. The clan idea could be more like a Risk based game and not so immersive as the grand campaign, because having real players counts as immersion.

Please give comments and feedback.

To much work for CA apparently, and you can browse the web and do stuff online during the game, at any point in the game through Steam.

They could do0 that, but i don't want to wait 15 minutes for my tuirn. 10 years in the game might take ten years to do in real life :p
Unless, they found some great way to do that. It would be really awesome to do so.

they should include 5 players minimum or its not as fun because the stupid AI controls the strong powers (Russia, Prussia, Austria, France and Britain). The small powers can be AI.
