Aside from that I often ran into the situation where I could spend an entire hour pouring resources into a city and still not been able to recruit any halfway decent units from the place.

It was several hours in that I realized you must either have a city or a castle because I had been investing money on developing several of my dozens of cities and the option to upgrade these two came up quite often. My first problem was with the cities and upgrading the buildings because I couldn't for the love of god wrap my mind around all the damn effects.

The BadAfter playing the Hyrule: Total War mod for a while (which lacks a campaign mode) I decided to try the real stuff out for once and go into the Grand Campaign, however this proved to be an overwhelming disaster from start to finish. I haven't really done any research, but the fact that characters age and seem to die at fixed moments in the plot suggests to me that Creative Assembly went through quite a bit of research to get all these details which feels like a treat to me.

I was pretty surprised when the tutorial battle had me fighting the Saxons because I am a descendant of Saxons myself.

I am pretty sure that the fact that you have to manage every single city this way will appeal to the most hardcore of the RTS fans, for me it was personally quite a novelty, but it did get overwhelming later on.Īs far as I know the game is very historically accurate which is always a plus for me. You also have to go into discussion with different nations and the tech tree is not as mapped out as it was in Civ games. Not only do you have to manage your economy and soldiers, but you also need to keep different factions happy, most notably the pope. The game has a lot of depth to it, more so than any other strategy game I have ran into thus far. It is rare to see a game that is both interesting to play and also interesting to watch. Simple fights can vary from anywhere between 600 to 8000 sprites on the screen which all have randomized bodies and faces and carry banners. I just love to send thousands of soldiers into combat, the swords clashing, burning arrows flying and the sound of my crying processor backing it all up. The GoodThe battles are really massive and it's easily the most awesome-to-watch RTS out there. SummaryI know I am not that good at strategy, but I can't be this bad. 2 out of 3 people found this review helpful write a review of this game
