Come dribble with me over this pitch for Total War: Redwall, in which Shrimp ’n’ Hotroot soup is a vital strategic resource
A Reddit user named BuildingAirships has created a fan pitch for a hypothetical game combining the Total War strategy franchise with the Redwall book series. The concept, titled Total War: Redwall, is not an official game from Creative Assembly or any publisher, but rather a community creative project circulating online.
The latest iteration of the pitch focuses on a cooking and feasting system that would integrate recipes and food items directly from Brian Jacques’ Redwall novels. Examples of in-game resources mentioned include dishes like “Deeper ’n Ever Turnip ’n Tater ’n Beetroot Pie” and “Shrimp ’n’ Hotroot soup,” which would serve as strategic resources within the game’s economy and mechanics.
The pitch represents the kind of fan-created game concept commonly shared across social media and forums, where players imagine crossovers or adaptations they’d like to see. While not an official announcement from Total War developers, the detailed design work showcases creative thinking about how two distinct properties—a turn-based tactics strategy franchise and a fantasy book series—could be combined into a cohesive gameplay experience.
