While the main target is tighter, Creative Assembly say it’ll provide “the most detailed Total War campaign map ever made.” They’re not displaying something of the sport but nevertheless it’s broadly Total War so I’m positive your creativeness can fill within the particulars as you watch this animated announcement trailer:
