would making a "China: Total War" or "Asia: Total War" game be a bad idea?

i heard during the classical or medieval times there was a lot of bloodshed in Asia.
CA could squeeze a bit of Asian history and warfare out of it.

what about a Total War game set in India?

if you think these are shit ideas or want to share your own ideas:
where do you think Creative assembly should base their next game on?

Not really. Americans and probably Europeans would by it. It would probably be banned in some Asian countries, but that’s happend before. Successful games getting banned in whatever country the game’s bad guys are from.

I like the India idea.

Maybe a Persian/Mongol type game?

Not always. For example, WWII games where you play against the Nazis are legal in Germany. The only thing is the makers of the game remove the swastikas and Nazi salutes in the German version because those are illegal.

hey

here are some interesting mods i found

there is a Three Kindoms: Total War mod, i think it is based on Koeis game “Romance of the Three Kingdoms” and “Dynasty Warriors”

seems very large scale compared to videos i have seen of Rome Total war

there is another interesting Mod i know some of you would like to look at
The Third Age: Total War seems like it is based on Lord Of The Rings books and movies.
here is some Dwarves campaign to look at.

The problem with India is that the pre-19th century Indian situation isn’t really as well-known as that of Japan or Europe.

China, you could do Three Kingdoms or Warring States or whatever, but again not really as well-known.
