    CA have given us a clue with the timer.

    The timer will either end in time for e3, or when the next game is released.

    e3 is in june. CA have made a habit of releasing games feb/march in the year.

    So, all we have to do is, determine how fast the time is running down in a week. Then use the maths to determine what the rough date will be on either of those two dates.

    That should give us the start date of the next TW and a good indication if it really is a Shogun era game.

    Date on timer 1751 as of 14:43 Friday 28th May

    Dominion of Dust. A city of sand. Built your world of nothing. So how long did it stand?
    A 100 years? Now wasn't it grand? Built your world of nothing. How long did it stand?
    What did you think would happen? When did you think it would all fall down?
    Domain of dust in a land of sand. Did yourself right, so let's feel grand.

    I did the math.

    It is losing around 80 years a day. In the how many days until E3, it will be around 500 AD.

    I have a feeling that it does not count down at a constant pace...
    I checked once every day (not at the same time of day, though), and I've seen 1908, 1824, 1769, and 1744 (~11AM PST May 28 Fri).

    BTW, Equinox, didn't I see you in another thread where you mentioned a friend who provided some "inside info" on Rome vs. China Total War?

    The timer has significantly slowed down.

    Right, and I've been advertising the theory around to fit the explanation of that haiku tweet by CA...
