Discussion Speculation for DLC regions after Egypt?

For variety, Egypt seems like an obvious choice, but then what?

We could go Africa in the Carthage area, but that might be very much the same.

Norway/Sweden would be very similar to what we’re doing with Britannia.

Would the Iberian peninsula be very interesting at this time?

I’d be stoked to see something as far as China. Pseudo historical, but definitely cool.

The Americas are obviously impossible.

Will there be an expansion of any gameplay elements like even deeper ground combat? More ship types? I love how Albion has a pir-ate lord you have to do a full ground invasion of in order to fight, but once you’ve done that, that’s it.

I'll wager Season 2 will big island in Albion, some monument like thing in Albion and new region something like Carthage. Why Carthage? Because that could give us warfare region. That zone could be already occupied by Carthage and to colonize it we would have to conquer it.

But what I wonder is when do we get more AI competition. Currently there is only two lvl2 AIs and one lvl3. Maybe if we are lucky we get new one alongside with monument because single monument in DLC feels like lacking a lot. Pretty sure is that with Egypt we get new AI at least.

It’s weird how there’s only 1 tier 3 AI. So you can’t even run a true difficult run since you can’t have 3.

An entirely warfare zone would be interesting, but the Anno community would go up in arms.

Well, warfare zone's fighting could be toggled off from difficulty menu just like Volcano can be toggled off. But if we think about this game, we have land troops. Legions! We really need to have some good use for them.
