Travel to the eighteenth century in this strategy game.
One of the most important series of the strategy genre, is without doubt,
Total War, and with
Empire Total War it reaches a milestone in what refers to playability, new features and, specially, entertainment.
Empire Total War is a game that is half way between a
real-time strategy game and a turn based strategy game. Because like in earlier titles of the series, the battles are fought in real-time, but the tactic system is turn based.
The player has to choose from the faction that are available, based on the
armies of the XVIII century, and fight by means of military force, politics, diplomacy, espionage or economy to bend your enemies to your will and become the ruler of the known world.
Among the available faction we will find up to 50 possibilities, including British, Spanish, French, Austrian, Prussian, Polish, Ottoman Empire, Russian and Swedish, even though not all of them will be available from the beginning.
With graphics that are very good and a refined control system, the only thing that the game seems to lack is a
slightly better artificial intelligence, that would be the perfect complement to this
game.
In
Empire Total War, you will be able to control from foot soldiers to naval battles, and once you start to play, diplomacy, assassinations, espionage and war will be an everyday things. So if you like
strategy games that are very complete and enveloping, with
Empire Total War you will enjoy as if you were a real king.
