Shogun Total War Trailer and mini Guide

Here is a trailer that was made for Shogun, I think it show many aspect and principle that are the core strategy concept behind the creation of this series of game. There is also many strategic advice. So I think it's a good thing for every one to watch this to learn or refresh some strategy principle.

seeing that vid shows you how games have moved on it just amzing how they have change,

ww1 total war i don't think that would be possible

Attila said...

well my guess would be an China (asia) Total War.

But I must say I think a World War II Total War, would be possible to make, I have the concept in my head. ;)

The thing is... I think most Total War fans actualy like the concept of sword wars. So I don't know if Creative assembly would Risk to annoy some fans by switching to Gun age.

Maybe Napoleonic Total War would be a first move toward that...

But I can easily conceptualize a Total War in any era easy.
I think a World War II Total War (and modern total war) would take a lot more of AI programming, and I wonder if CA would invest in that now. Or they could import the AI from Close Combat ABTF. ;)

I think world war one is not really likely... it's not what I call a popular war period... they use old tactic against modern weapons... it's a big massacre. Could be interesting... but risky in sales, and money is every thing...
