I know CA loves the streamers like everyone else, but it seems like most of the ones who stream Total War on a regular basis aren't incredibly dumb. I guess it's like a Chinese trebuchet" (the entire game setting is China and that's incredibly obvious from all of the advertising even if you have no idea about Chinese history, and I know if I were totally ignorant and saw unfamiliar stuff I would just shrug and assume it's a Chinese variation of something I'm familiar with)ģ) WHAT IS THIS THING THIS DOESN'T LOOK LIKE A TREBUCHET I'M MADīut I feel like that's super bottom of the barrel bad streamer type reaction. I feel like they just wouldn't care, or more likely be like "Huh, that looks different. Hopefully they realize it's a thingy for knocking down walls, but nothing lost here either way.Ģ) Knows what a European trebuchet is from video games / pop culture but don't really know the arch of technology to get there. Since it seems like the people to be "offended" would be people who don't know what a traction trebuchet is, you would wind up with someone who:ġ) Has no idea what a trebuchet is either way. I know that trebuchets were considered hot shit in Medieval Europe, so I would probably react with a "whaa?" to including the European version if Fiendishrabbit hadn't just explained it. I like history a lot but am only familiar with Chinese history at a very macro level, and had no idea they had trebuchets at all. I'm trying to step through who they would "offend" by including a historically accurate (and harder to model because they already have the european version) Chinese trebuchet and I'm not coming up with much. It's possible! To me it seems a bit less likely than the other alternative though. Sure bring the Felind abhuman auxiliary force too. If and only if Valhallans sound Russian, Kriegers sound German, Armageddoners sound Austrian, Harakoni are space Western Americans, Elysians are French, Catachans are Catachans, Tanithians are Scottish, and Attilans sound Mongolian.Īccidentally put down "catchans" for Catachans. Light infantry in the form of Elysians, Catachans, and Tanithians and cavalry regiments like the Attilans. There are plenty of Cadians left in the galaxy.īut I vote a mixed warhost of like Valhallan, Krieg, Armageddon, and Harakoni with separate generals similar to the Warhammer legendary lords. Like millions are shipped off all the time to fight other wars.
They could easily have campaigns focusing on a particular sub-sector and factions with a special win mechanic.Įdit- But I swear, if the Imperial Guard are mother fucking Cadians I'll be terribly vexed! They're dead GW! Let em rest and let someone else take over as the iconic Guard. Hell, that could simply be their "Mortal Empires" map. That'd be perfectly doable and since anything that isn't system level is basically generic empty space I don't think it'd be much of a strain on resources. I think I'd end it there and just have planets and moons act as cities do in the other games.
With each system containing anywhere from maybe 1-12 conquerable planets and moons. Then each sub-sector can have 3-8 star systems that you can zoom in on for a micro-level view. Then have the Sector be divided in to 7-10 sub-sectors that you can zoom in on to have a mid-level view. If they are feeling a bit adventurous they could have the Sector be the macro level. I think I would want it take place in a Sector at least. i hope so, at least, these games have basically been money-printers and the fans are wild about them. Which would actually be a fun mechanic.Įdit: the other important thing to note is the working relationship that Creative Assembly and GW have developed, which seems to be really amicable! two companies working closely together to make two very successful products, and a third oncoming and likely just-as-massive success, are likely to find excuses to continue working together. That way, you could do different planets with various environmental hazards and resource production and cultures/their own lore, you could introduce some races that don't have much of a tabletop presence like the Hrud for example, and you'd also have the fun of "well these territories aren't connected, but it's just a hopefully-short hop through the Warp! hope we don't get Event Horizon'd or displaced in time!" or vice-versa, whichever one is correct, you know what i'm saying here. The other way to do it would be to have the galaxy as the board with various sectors or whatever serving as provinces and the planets therein serving as regions within the province. I imagine it would probably be centered on one important planet, maybe even a planet invented for the game since GW can be pretty guarded about their canon in weird ways sometimes
