into the >>>/trash/ can it goes

>>675324
Agreed.
I would enjoy a game where you actually had to face the impossible odds against you as Cortes, and build up enough strength to finally collapse the empire.
Would be fun.

Ive always wanted to try and build an easy RPG about building a rebel group in the 60s from the ground up.

As long as there's a Turkish campaign too.

How about we add a twist, the "reinforcements" the Venetians were "going to send" actually arrive along with, lets be honest, godtier navy and helped out the Romans? Maybe that Might even out the fight.

Also malta would also be bae af desu

The Studio that brought you S.T.A.L.K.E.R presents: Hell on Earth: Eastern Front, 1942

Something in the vein as the Koei Warriors series, but instead of having anime-style super exaggerated portrayals of historical figures from Three Kingdoms period China or Sengoku period, have similarly styled historical figures from World War II.

So Josef Mengele being a mad scientist figure wielding a giant scalpel mowing down tons of Jews, Hirohito being a super honourable katana user massacring loads of Chinese at Nanjing, Paul Tibbets in a nuclear powered robotic exoskeleton called Enola Gay, Mussolini as a stereotypical Italian ladies man, Winston Churchill as a massive John Bull type brawler chomping in cigars.

RPG set in Classical Greece, Post-Persian War, Pre-Peloponnesian War

Paradox grand strategy, but more complex.

Mount & Blade set in the Western Balkans in the 14th Century, with RPG & building mechanics.

I just want to be able to go hunting, mine ore, forge a blade, build a fort, and then fight hordes of invading Saracens. That's all I want.

You run a kingdom like a Paradox game but you do it by proxy of your advisers and generals. They'e AI controlled and tend to be retarded, although you can choose different people and they AI behavior is different based on their attributes. You can lead armies in person but it hands over the entire kingdom to another retarded adviser while you're away. The whole game is just you trying to juggle these retards who have radically different personalities and each of them is retarded in their own unique way. No matter what, your monarch always dies with the succession uncertain, the kingdom in a precarious position economically and militarily, and the cycle repeats itself with the new king

This, my life needs historical RPGs. Why are there so few, are they particularly expensive to produce or something?

Naval Action/Age of Pirates, but all your sailors are meticulously rendered and when you give an order they physically carry it out. None of this psychic sail setting business, I wanna see a nigga climb up there and tie that shit. Hell, I wanna zoom in on him and hear his dumbass conversation about how he saw a mermaid once and how he's mad about the half rations I put everyone on.
I want to know my crew, get attached to them and then get sad when a heavy wave knocks five of them overboard.

American Civil War strategy game.

Think Ultimate General Gettysburg, but a whole campaign. Cities and Governance is automatic, but you control armies. You are given regiments by the AI government, which you can form into brigades, divisions, corps, and armies. You can assign commanders and artillery batteries as well. Army management is complicated and requires a careful balance of available forage and logistics capacity, number of troops, sickness and desertion, etc. There is also extensive fog-of-war and cavalry are needed to determine enemy positions etc.

Battles can play out over several days and through several phases. The terrain is also based on historical elevation map survey data and is as close to historically accurate for the ground as possible. Units generally appear as brigades and batteries in battles, and have morale bonuses when fighting as a division or corp.

Basically, an incredibly in-depth and complicated TW that focuses on realism as much as possible.

>>677183
This, but with the added caveat that it doesn't shoehorn you towards the major battles, instead allowing the game to naturally form its own turning points and major milestones. If you want to divert all your dudes to Gettysburg for a big battle, so be it, but the biggest battle of the war could be the Battle of DC or Nashville or something in your game.

Just realize a historical version of Mount & Blade with god tier gameplay and an actual storyline.

An MMO similar to elite dangerous, but instead of in space, you're some guy in the american west. You can become a merchant, bounty hunter, bandit, hunter, lawman, whatever. Either that or something similar in the golden age of piracy.
