    Default Idea for total war?

    This is an idea many people have probably already had, but I think it's an interesting concept anyways. I was thinking that CA should create a real time campaign or perhaps have the option in a game. It would be a pretty big departure from the Total War formula, but it would put a lot more emphasis on maneuvering on the campaign map and would add to the realism of the game. What would the potential problems of this be? I know it might be difficult to implement, I just wanted to see what others might think.

    I just think if it's done well, it could be a great step forward by CA. If you put enough work into it, you could perhaps do night marches to get better position or attack an enemy, but at the risk of starting battle with tired soldiers, or you could move around your enemy to capture a city without fighting in the field. There is just a lot of opportunity, the more I think about it, the better it sounds.

    Sounds fine by me, as long as CA doesn't go into the RTSMMORPGWTFBBQ type games.

    In short, no, CA has a hard enough time designing a turn based game, can you imaging them using a RTS engine?
