Man I would dig a WH40K Total War.....although....the tactical part is a perfect and natural fit how are they going to handle the strategic layer for a game like that??
Strategic layer would be the thing they'd have to completely re-invent.. that's true. But it's not like that is the strength of Total War lately anyway. A new take on the entire strategy layer, unit recruitment and army movement paradigm + siege/rally would be very welcome.
They could move requisition to a space faring flag-ship (1 per "leader" you have) that enters planets with it's fleets, and engages the fleets there, then if successful, planet can be invaded and installations and cities can be captured.
Or the entire game moves into space? Granted, WH40k would require a huge effort to get right... so maybe it's just a dream after all. Imo China is most likely.
