Medieval 3 would get my. One, but I wouldn't be surprised to see China this time around.

"With production getting fully underway in the new year, pre-production for our next historical major release continues. Also, we have now partnered with our first historical advisor, pre-eminent in his field and already bringing that world-leading expertise to bear on our designs and extensive research so far." said the developers in a blog report on the  official website.


   An actual historical advisor -- preeminent in his field ...so no Mary Beard and no Rome 3.  What kinds of fields feature re-eminence?  And the possibility of magical animals?  It must be Peter Matthews and the field is MesoAmerica with appropriate underworlds and Purgatories attached.  You'll be able to take (in-game) hallucinagenes and travel via your wei-kob spirit animals.  Historically!

How about Total War: Pinkertons v. Coalminers? Could be a thing (again) soon.

I'd like Medieval 3, but CA has said previously that the next TW game will not have a "three" in the title nor will it be an era they've tackled before. 

So with that said, my hope is Renaissance or Victorian era.  If it's Victorian I hope the scope is very, very grand.

So how would you handle railroads on the strategic map?  Balloons would be cool though!

Shogun 2 Fall of the Samurai is Victorian Era.
