I think logically it must be Rome expansion. EU3 had HttT not so long ago, and Hearts of Iron III had Sepmer Fi. Victoria 2 didn't yet come out so I don't think it is time for expansion yet. And Rome needs expansion. Alexander era would be great 
I would love me some Rome, but all this talk about the issues or rather the design and execution of the game has put me off on the hold till the price drops. And maybe a new expansion could improve it like HTTT did for EU3. Though, I think I made an mistake by not buying it just few days ago on steam. Was it Rome + expansion for something like 10€...
Eu3
Even though I do not have HTTT, I would buy both XPs if the game provided a challenge and was just as fun in the late game (seems to be a problem that plagues empire-building games). I would really appreciate stability to be tied to a distance-from-captial modifier. Just my two-cents!

Why have you been putting off HttT? Don't even play EU3 until you get Heir to the Throne!
Rome FTW. That game is amazing. You can almost see CK2 in there already, with all the characters plus the proto-EU3 construction. Imagine if it were brought up to current EU3/HTTT status. Mind blowing.
Promise me, that you will make this.
By the looks of this poll, it won't be the next expansion, but please let it be the following then.
I voted EU3. I know some say that the game has too many expansions and is 'complete', the truth is that its far from it. Europe and its immediate area is great, but rest of the world is at a much much much lower level of quality. Every expansion has focused on Europe, and I would dearly love just one that significantly improved the experience in the rest of the world, because its really just an adhoc setup right now.
I voted for Rome, but I'd like an EU3 RotW expansion just as much. (I imagine I'll want a Victoria 2 expansion, too, but since it's not out yet, I'm ignoring that option, lol, and I haven't tried Semper Fi yet, so I don't know about HoI3).
Honestly, my vote would be for "get the current expansions out of beta first", which of course was not an option. SF appears to need a lot of work, which is what I imagine the expansion team is doing right now, HTTT is still in beta and the latest version has some reported balance issues and bugs with the HRE, but it hasn't seen any work since April 29. Starting another expansion now to me means HTTT is dead, in development terms (of course if it's an EU3 expansion the fixes needed for HTTT will transfer to ROTW) and SF will be soon to follow (again, unless we're talking another HOI3 expansion). Perhaps I'm wrong. If the question is what do I want the team to do after they've gotten HTTT to patch 4.1 and SF in fighting shape, then I would say Vicky 2 expansion, because we'll be past the release date at that point and all Paradox games get expansions these days to add in new features based on gamer feedback.
I really like what they have done with republics in Rome. Even without characters and just geting those parliaments to EU3 would be really nice. With the ability to add factions - lol.
If my vote still matters, it's going to EU3:ROTW. A more enhanced trading system and some sort of dynasty/family-tree would be awesome. Also, it'd be nice to see a little re-cap on how the world and it's borders developed from 1399 to 1821? A bit rip-off from Civ IV, but yeah.
Imo a "real" expansion for HoI3 would be nice, as semper fi more or less was a big patch. EU3 has so much stuff already, and Im having a hard time seeing what could be added within the limits of the game that cant be done by mods. Paradox can spend its time in better ways than making decisions and events for non-european nations in EU3. Also HoI3 to me feels like it has the most untapped potential of the current paradox games. It still has some funky bugs and is a bit shallow on the non-combat side of things. An expansion that would give some love to politics etc would be nice.
Edit: Just read up a bit and saw someone write that rather than doing a new expansion, turn HttT beta patch into real patch and fix the broken stuff in SF. I'd rather have that than new expansion as well.
On the other hand, with paradox you can often have the cake and eat it

I'm pretty sure that ROTW would feature more than decisions and events, despite you not able to imagine new possible features. The thread in the EU3 subforum on wishlist for new expansion/rotw gives a long list of ideas.
I voted for Rome. We got HTTT not to long ago. Time to show some love to an older title that still rocks.
Yeah, if I could change my vote I'd go for Rome
In fact, I've started a new game this week. And I'm enjoying it so much that I'm embarrased because of my vote (for EUIII, a terrific game either way).
