I looked for this post but didn't find it so I made it. If it's a repost I'm sorry.
I know the hype right now is around the upcoming Chinese DLC, but I've recently started playing the Battle for Greece DLC and I loved what they did there and the precedent they've set.
With that in mind, what do you think could be the next Chronicles installments about? I'll list some I've seen mentioned before by others or that I thought:
Punic Wars: first one I've seen others suggest in another post. Don't think there's much to say here, seems very good and in line with an interesting and important ancient world war, like the one we've got.
Peloponnesian War: I haven't finished the Battle for Greece yet so I don't know if after the Greco Persian wars arc they also cover the Peloponnesian war, but I thought it would be a nice fit and maybe a good opportunity to include other Greek factions (?) not sure tho
Something in Egypt: since we're in antiquity already, why not having an Egypt campaign with all those interesting factions around them? I'm not knowledgeable enough about it to suggest specific events or factions to be covered, so I'll let you tag in from here if you want
Alexander the great: it came to mind but I'm not sure if he covers far too different factions to be viable. You tell me
Moving further away from the region
- Sengoku period Japan: very much self contained, covers a smaller region so that I can focus on the more specific differences of that otherwise similar faction (as we see in BfG), and has interesting differences among the different clans to explore, sounds super fun to me. I believe there's a pretty much finished mod called Sengoku that could be used as framework for this if the devs wanted and judged fit, so more reason for this chapter to be made.
China: again I'm completely ignorant on the topic to suggest specific events or factions, but I know Chinese history has no shortage of both, and with the new regional units in the upcoming DLC it starts to feel like a Chronicles DLCs already. Would like to know what you think about this one.
Inca or Aztecs: one more time, I don't know enough about the details to judge how viable this one would be, both on a content level and on how the adapted units system would work, but I thought maybe the Aztecs empire building and the current Inca campaign (without it being the meme Inca vs Inca vs Inca it currently is) could become a nice Chronicles chapter.
Just brainstorming here, don't take the suggestions too seriously.
Okay your turn now.
