Werewolves, despite the germanic name, are greek, and not from the Stone Age.
There were no boat axes in the Stone Age

My brother in Osiris, you obviously haven’t the foggiest what you’re talking about. I even specifically identified werevolves as ‘Indo-European’ to provide some context for those unfamiliar with this area of research. And of course there were boat axes, where do you think I got them.

My point is, a Stone Age Total War is absolutely possible, and would probably be pretty engaging. It would just piss off even more people than the Bronze Age Total Wars because the unit variety would be on the level of Shogun if not narrower.

But I personally would be very interested.

Perhaps entirely satisfying to you and some others with apparently low standards and expectations but that DLC could have been so much more and so much better simply by including the rest of the map.

Define ‘rest’.

The rest of the map as seen in the base game.

all these children talking sauce on OP when he is 100% right. they need to stop what ever it is theyre doing ever since 3 kingdoms they just keep making games in un interesting eras. i have been waiting for an empire 2 for 15 some odd years now, the first was a fantastic idea that they really just half arsed, you play that game today and its by far the worst attempt compared to the other yet still the most interesting era of warfare in human history

im gonna die before they give us Empire 2

just wanted to vent, ive played total war since birth pretty much. first game i ever played on PC was medieval 2 and i was hooked. now i havent bought a total war game in a long time though. Britannia was the last interesting one they made and tbh it sucked, only cause you were stuck in england, what happened to bludgeoning the whole world to dirt? why do they keep making these titles where youre stuck in a micro area of a micro portion of history? Atilla still stands as the pinnacle of total war cause it was the last total war game to actually be TOTAL WAR! the rest are just meh war as of late with how uninteresting it is to be stuck in a small everything. dont you want to take a fleet and whole army from the shores of dover and sail em all the way over to shanghai and pummel some dudes? thats the total war i grew up on, not this meh attempt they keep feeding us. sadly another total war i will not buy and thats 3 straight now, Atilla was the last real total war game they released. cant change my mind.

Just because the 3 Kingdoms period doesn't interest you personally, doesn't mean its not an interesting period. That's straight up childish thinking right there.

But it would not be possible, there was not even a lot of town building, nor can we name a single actual tribe from the period.
Also, as I stated, the indo-europeans are from the Bronze Age, and they did not have werewolf myths yet.
There were no indo-europeans in the Stone Age, no aryan migrations, Europe was fully populated by brown people.
Aryans (white people) came from Central Asia, as huge conquering hordes, on chariots, around 2000 BCE, which is well into the Bronze Age (starts in 3300 BCE), and far from the Stone Age.

Stone Age TW would have no analogue to any European culture with werewolves and axeboats.
These things came MUCH later, which is what I am trying to tell you.

3K is the most popular TW game, after Warhammer, in terms of playerbase. It far displaced all others beneath it, so it is interesting to a WHOLE LOT OF PEOPLE!

Most of it isn’t relevant for a Charlemagne campaign. Your goal in the campaign is to make the Holy Roman Empire, and that’s what you do. Your complaint is like if someone was upset that Napoleon doesn’t allow you to conquer China.

Buy Warhammer, Warhammer II, and Warhammer III, and download Immortal Empires. Boom. The largest map Total War has ever seen.

The statement ‘there were no Indo-Europeans in the Stone Age’ is just bizarre. They’re literally a Stone Age cultural group. You must be confusing Stone Age Indo-Europeans with Bronze Age Indo-European cultures such as the Hittites.

Of course Stone Age Indo-Europeans didn’t have werewolf myths — because they were werewolves, they are where the werewolf myths come from. The concept of a ‘werewolf’ comes directly from Indo-European culture, and refers to the ritual separation of young warriors from their native society and perceived transformation into savage beasts of the wild, half-human half-beastly warriors who prey on both beasts and humans while not being either of them fully. Where do you think the wolf hats on Velites come from, or why the Germans have a dozen wolf-themed names like Wolfgang.

those are the most terrible thing that CA ever did, in leaving realism and historical TW and going to phantasy childish games.

[Yews]

OP complains about not being able to bludgeon the whole world to dirt. Actually no game in the franchise ever did that, with Empire coming the closest to it but still omitting most of the planet. But Warhammer III with Immortal Empires? That’s a couple islands short of a true planet-spanning, total, war.

I fundamentally disagree with everything you said. I like micro eras. If you don't like it Go back to medieval 1 please god

CA, why do you constantly ignore suggestion emails and polls from fans?

Most of us want this:

1. Empire (with Napoleon) remake

2. Medieval III

3. A setting in the Colonial period in the Victorian Era (e.g. Boer Wars, Anglo-Zulu Wars, Anglo-Afghan War, British Rule of Raj, Establishment of Belgian Congo, etc..)

4. A daring WWI setting (from a few people)

5. Shogun III (forgot about this)

why dont you make a game what the fan is willing to pay and/or even preorder in mass quantities to appease SEGA's sales target eh?

Yes please I want the same setting over and over again. I hate all of history and I prefer to ignore everything interesting and just have medieval on repeat durrrr empire 2 durrrrrrr medieval 3
