    Total War series

    Anybody ever played any from Total War series?

    It seems to me that there are few playing it. I'm currently playing Rome: Total War, and may get the coming Empire: Total War a year from now.

    I really like the battle of R:TW, and E:TW seems to be promising that finally there's a TW game that you can play Wellington v.s. Napoleon or Washington v.s. Cornwallis. I'm not sure about M2TW, though. The term-based strategy part is boring and administering cities are PITA.

    Any comments?

        LOVED Shogun:TotalWar. Played all the others, but they werent the same :*(

        I hear ETW is going to be pretty sweet. I will try that one out as I continue to hope for a Shogun2.

          Fairly sure the singpleplayer was turn based in Rome and shogun.... Played all of them so far and while they are really decent game the AI can be a pain in the but a lot of the time, only thing i hope they will fix really in E:TW.

              Turn based with real time was a masterstroke

              Rome total war was me favourite, with a bit of modding

              ETW is looking awesome, have waited ages for Naval battle and the level of detail and intricacy makes my mouth water

              the AI is said to be much improved as well

                      same.

                      i have played all of the total war games and they are the best strategy series IMO.

                      cant wait for E:TW finally be able to establish the british empire and, in my game when the American colonies revolt i will crush them and be supreme ruler of the entire world, with my vast navy and thousands of linesmen.....

                      apart from naval combat the best part is the MULTIPLAYER CAMPAIGN!!!!! although ill probably get my arse handed to me on a silver platter.
