So apparently the Warhammer fantasy battle RTS will be published by Sega and created by Creative Assembly...

A fantasy themed total war is long overdue. The Call of Warhammer kingdoms mod was really fun, but a newer engine will be nice.

As much as I love RTS games, I would love to see less of a resource gathering type game, and a game more like warhammer where you get to pick your units from a list based on points and then go against the other army. In other words, I hope they make it just like the table top game and less like other RTS games.

Don't drown the enemy in legislation, drown them in explosives.

That is how total war works, I think we're onto something cool. Heres some gameplay footage: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vDDxPHezwMs

Awesome, I'm not a huge PC gamer, so sorry if I sound ignorant on some of the gameplay in total war. I've always played consoles and we've never seen a game like this done well so I'm quite excited. The mark of chaos was a disaster and I don't believe you actually got to choose the units in your army. Either way, this is exciting.

You could choose what units to take before each 'level/battle'.

If you'd got time, it wasn't bad. It just wasn't as widely appreciated as C&C etc and as such, fared badly in comparison.
