What goes up must come down and those who spent weeks building their empire in Total War: Rome 2 can spend just as long trying to prevent its fall. The division of East and West has resulted in huge swathes of empire left in disrepair, defended by ill-equipped and unmotivated soldiers who can be tempted away by promises of freedom and glory. The great Roman Empire itself still stands, but as a fractured and fractious beast. Still, this prosperous and enlightened empire must contend with petty Roman leaders who grasp at their exotic riches to help prop up a faltering regime. In the Eastern Empire of the Sassanids, things are quieter and life is undeniably easier. Decisions must be made in order to balance the hungry expansion of a developing kingdom with the necessity of moving beyond static stone walls to leverage the strengths of a mobile horde. There are numerous paths to victory and each faction boasts unique strengths to help get them there, but they also bring with them tough leadership challenges.
To the south, the migratory tribes lie in turmoil the Alans have grown tired of the other tribes poking fun at their name and now rage against the world with a ferocity that wins them few friends but many battles. In the northern reaches of Europe, the small barbarian kingdoms teeter between oblivion and greatness. Total War: Attila is a rewarding strategy title, but it's dragged down by a lack of feedback and an abstruse UI.Įurogamer has dropped review scores and replaced them with a new recommendation system.
