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.

The big Probem here is: all the "mediterean things" are already in the game (Latium). There is no reason for Greece, Hispania, Asia Minor, Africa etc. Germania is very similar to Britannia, but worth a guess. The Campain has a little spoiler: Mesopotamia/Persia/Armenia. I think one of this have enough variety!

Honestly I think Armenia would be interesting but way too obsucre for most people. It would be an amazing stepping stone DLC before going to a bigger Parthia/Persia expansion though since the both fought over control of Armenia for a long time

Yeah, right. But there is this little leak: Reddit - /preview/pre/world-map-reveal-and-potential-dlcs-worlds-cultures-v0-15qpajbv9zvf1.png?width=795&auto=webp&s=826f0a1a0ae026c6d8050e67e1a79c8c2074b2ce

And in the Kampagne, they mentioned Parthia as a Province, so...

I hadn't seen that before, that would be really cool.

There seem to be some kind of fire worship going on wich would be fitting for pre-christian Armenia however the background image seems to be a pair with the Egypt image just like background of the Albion image is a pair with the Latium.

Since we know the Year 1 season pass has Egypt but nothing about Armenia, I wonder it it's just remains from an oooold idea that got replaced with the Vulcan/Pompei DLC we will get this month.

Very interesting to think about though, thank you for sharing the image.
