Tom Cruise hero unit

[eregost]

Will he be recruitable and if so at what time and for which factions? Also what special powers and abilities should he have? Lastly when giving a pre battle speech will it be in american as is historically accurate and can they hire his actor from the documentary The Last Samurai to voice him?

[Ayleid]

Lastly when giving a pre battle speech will it be in american...?

Bah!

Nonetheless, I think he should be excluded from the game completely. All these threads will no doubt give The CA the wrong impression that we want him, haha!

Let the East have their moment...the west has been hogging TW games for the last 4 titles...no need for a western character.

Why not have an 'Otaku' unit that serves the same purpose as Religious Fanatics in Medieval II Total War or every Gallic unit in vanilla Rome: Total War?

[Kuhndog]

Funny? Why do you mock Japanese history like this!

Well considering the movie took place in the 1870s. I don't think he will be included in a game that starts in the 1500s.

[Kuhndog]

Well then he should be included in the stand alone expansion Tome Cruise: Total War

Wouldn't work, because his name in the Movie is actually Captain Nathan Algren. "Tome Cruise" wasn't born until July 3, 1962.

Ah my mistake Nathan Total War then. He should be modelled after Tom though as Tom is his desendant and bares a striking resemblance to him.

Then he wouldn't be modeled after Tom as Tom came after him. Tom would therefore resemble him, not the other way around.

[eregost]

I mean tne ingame model. Nathan is dead.

We have the movie.. We could model it after him. So obviously some part of him lives on in the movie.

Isnt it in the wrong time frame anyway? Tom Cruise late 1800's Shogun2 1600's?

Yes you are right.

[LoudHoward]

Tom Cruise should be in every game

[Kuhndog]

Tom Cruise should be in every game

Eric Bana and Viggo Mortensen should be in every game.

[Total Bliss]

Enola Gay should be in the game.

[Prince of Darkness]

Maybe you can mod it.... the 'Mission Impossible' mod???

[Takeda Shingen]

loooooooooooooooooooooooool

Shogun 2 TotalWar - Epic Tom Cruise Edition

....or maybe at least as DLC ....with unlimited ammo auto-cannons

[RO Citizen]

Idn't this the 2nd thread about him? He was French and in the Meiji period (1860-70). Hollywoodian action: something I won't like.

[eregost]

Well the public has voted. We want Tom/Nathan in the game! I hope CA is listening. And to the poster above he is american not French! The documentary said so.

[Space Wolves]

If so, i'm running him to the quickest way to die. That or, if i can assassinate my own units like in MTW1, I'll assassinate him. I don't hate him personally, just, UNREALISTIC, even for an easter egg! Those amazons up north in Vanilla rome, or those yubtseb elephant cheats were more realistic >=(
