Looks like it will be a remake of Viking invasion and kingdoms Britanica campaign.
It’s not really pushing the boat out and trying something new. They need to improve siege combat a lot and add some new features. They need to bring back naval combat and make it enjoyable.
I never bought Atilla, first total war game I did not buy, and I won’t buy this unless it brings something new to the table.
I enjoyed warhammer 1 as they introduced magic, monsters and flying units plus interesting factions that played different.
Warhammer 2 was good but nothing really New was added, ok you had rites and they did a good job on the factions but where was the improved siege maps, where was the naval combat, where was the underground map for skaven, dwarfs etc.
It feels like the new Total War is 2 steps forward and then 1 step back.
For me to buy this game I would need:
Great sieges with each city having its own unique map.
Unique battle maps that actual resemble where you are fighting on the campaign map.
Naval combat and naval invasions being fun with weather making a difference.
Family tree and factions playing integral part to running your empire.
Units have more than 160 men.
Units that look different with armour upgrades and weapon upgrades.
Factions play different to each other and have unique win conditions.
Armies can have more units per stack
Units of same type have different performance levels, depending on say its officer. Thus you can get attached to units instead of just replacing them at will.
