Suppose I'll end up getting a crappy late release then, even though we have a CA studio here.

Yeah but they'd have to write a completely new engine. The TW one isn't meant for ranged combat.

Misc Info


But combat has evolved so much since the era that Rome: Total War takes place in. Modern Combat doesn't evolve large scale battles like that anymore. Modern Combat is more small scale and is more concentrated on precise movements and surgical strikes.

Napoleon: Total War would be an interesting possibility.
