    Default Speculation

    In anticipation of the announcement on the 25th I have created a new section on the site. Speculate away.

    You know, that's quite some no-no. And I know that you know that everyone knows that he knows this.:

    Medieval III: Total War. The province system from Rome 2 will expanded upon. Instead of provinces, territories will be grouped into "fiefdoms" or "vassals" or something of that nature, and controlling all parts of a fiefdom will yield a huge bonus. So that conquest of territories focuses on gaining and holding all of a particular fiefdom or conversely depriving a foe of one territory of a fiefdom to prevent them gaining that bonus. Just spitballing.

    I think it will be the Fall or Rome/Barbarian Invasion 2 and be called Total War: Sword of Attila.

    They're doing a lot of hiring at the moment, so it could well be something bigger than a DLC.

    Ohhh my here we go!

    Here's hoping for WWII: Total War.

    I think the technology to make it is there, finally. And it would pretty much sell itself.

    TWC II ?
    American, French, Israeli and British government's ILLEGAL aggression against the Syrian people, without any proof for chemical attacks in Douma, and without waiting for OPCW to conduct their investigation..
    Sons of *******, leave that poor, war torn country in peace.
    If you are a citizen of one of these countries, then DO NOT ask any help from me on these forums, since, in protest against this aggression by your governments, I do not provide assistance/help anymore.
    Let Syria be finally in peace.

    A video of false chemical attack in Douma, Syria, which led to Western illegal attacks.

    It's not an era I'm particularly interested in and a TW game on it I would probably skip.

    I assume this forum would be deleted if the new Total War is a standalone expansion?

    Why are you doing this now? It took you a few hours to create a R2 forum when it was announced.

    Maybe I have information that you do not.

    Actually it took longer than that, because we were not proactive enough with it. I changed things up this time.

    Why are you such a tyrant? Seriously though, do you really have special info on this? Just say yes or no. You don't have to spill the beans, but if you'll be generous you can.

    Did CA bribe you?

    Actually I do. I have a write up and other stuff I will share when the official announcement is made.

    Nahhh. We just learned some lessons from the Rome 2 announcement and launch. We (TWC Staff) wanted to get out in front of this one and change how we handle new stuff. So I made the forums early and created a forum that only CA can create threads in. I may actually move that forum to the TW News and Community Discussion section of the boards so they can use it for announcements on all their games. Or maybe create a Developers section. Still some conversation going on there among admins.

    Honestly, it sounds pretty boring and I doubt you can keep TW games what they are past a certain point in time.

    I think we'll get something about Rome dying next.

    O rly? I know you took a lot of interest in Medieval 2. Made Docudemons, did a tutorial class in TWC university for mapping and wrote cool scripts like 12 seasons campaign and what not. So pretty sure it's medieval 3, otherwise it wouldn't have piqued your interest in this way.

    Medieval period is clearly my favourite so i hope it's that, although i'm very skeptical about it.

    I don't want any more Rome , I want medieval 3 but I'm afraid it'll be so dlc ridden it'll be like $120 to get less factions, units, and functionality for a shill price. Well whatever it is I will be following but hell no pre purchases 👽
