I'm really trying to work out how some of those would work in terms of Desmonds ancestors, mostly Feudal Japan.
But they're all so good... too hard to decide.

Either feudal Japan or medieval China, preferably the later for its sweeping set pieces. I'm very wary of setting an AC game in an era with guns. So that knocks out all the other options but Egypt and Ancient Rome. We've already done Rome, twice, so thats out. Ancient egypt would be allright, but i think an Oreintal culture would provide some nice variety. AC1: arabian, AC2: Western, AC3: Eastern. Would really flush out the sense of the templars being this vast shadowy hegemony.
I would love Victorian Britain or Communist Russia. Considering I am interested in both, it will be easier to learn about them in video game form. It's so nice to have such a historically accurate game series!
I was under the impression that whatever came after AC 2 and its expansions would be chronologically set after them and AC 1. It only made sense to me that we'd be playing a new descendant of both Ezio and Altair. So in that case, any of those suggestions set in ancient times would seem like a step back (both in plot and the technology available to the assassin).
The AC series is pretty much built on its urban set pieces so playing an assassin through the American Revolution and the Spanish colonization of the Americas wouldn't really appeal to me.
That being said, I would like to see a lot more focus on Desmond. The Templar threat in his time has been so significantly built up that an other adventure in to the past would seem like a disservice to the overall story. I'd also be interested to see how the series' focus on melee combat can hold up against modern day Templars who could just pick off Desmond with a rifle from 50 yards away.

The advent of the mighty British Empire during Victorian England, This sounds pretty awesome to me, the fog filled streets of london, replace the assassin outfit with a good suit and sword cane, and a steampunkish engineer to replace Da Vinci. That is a game i would definitely buy.
Think Im gonna go with Egypt for my first choice just because Im hard pressed to think of any historical egyption style game. The closest ones I can recall are all Arabian fantasy themes
My second choice is fuedal japan but I have a hard time seeing Desmond as having any japanese descent, he just seems to American for that
Yet this also brings up another question. What happened to that future setting the game was originally set in?

Egypt all the way for me. AC2 was an excellent game, just imagining something like that set in ancient Egypt makes me salivate almost uncontrollably.
Medieval China should be cool too, but nowhere near as interesting for me as that Egypt.

That one, and it would be nice to get a poll to vote, or a link to somewhere you van actually vote.

Egypt and the Russian Revolution both seem like cool ideas. However the Russian Revolution seems like it happens too close to modern day, I think there should be more games before they start moving that close to modern day.
Also somehow climbing a pyramid while locked in epic combat would be a great final boss.
Come to think of it Feudal Japan would be interesting too.

Feudal Japan. It'd be like the latest Tenchu games but good.
Seriously though, it'd be freaking awesome.
