Interesting turn of events but quite welcome in my personal view as something completely new and different. Should be interesting to see how they make it work in practice.

I think they've an unneeded duplication of 'war' in the title, should have gone with Total Warhammer tbh :p

Apparently this is just the start

The first in an epic trilogy of titles, Total War: WARHAMMER will deliver hundreds of hours of absorbing gameplay. It will combine with two further standalone instalments and additional content packs to create the single largest Total War experience ever.

In the turn-based campaign game, players will find the Old World an unforgiving and treacherous place, filled with endless war and cunning alliances alike. Whichever race you choose to play as and however you seek conquest, you will be faced with a conflict that threatens to tear the very fabric of reality asunder.

as to be expected there will be a campaign map by the looks of it. Can't say I ever played Warhammer (heretics the lot of them) but still this does raise the question - what other fantasy realm could Total War go into. Lord of the Rings?

I assume the trilogy will all be GamesWorkshop products so could just be extensions of the Warhammer concept mind you.
 
I've always thought Middle Earth would be a perfect setting for Total War, probably even enough to get me into the franchise!

Then haste thee to Steam and buy Medieval 2 Total War with the Kingdoms expansion, then proceedeth to download the Third Age Total War mod.

Really awesome news. Only recently finished playing a campaign of the Call of Warhammer mod for Medieval 2, and that was a blast :). Cannot wait to see how CA's take on this franchise.

Hopefully this solves a lot of the problems with other Total War games, were all the nations units are pretty much interchangeable - but here its going to be very different, it also will add a lot of re-playability to the game I reckon.
