Product Description
Manufacturer's Description
With every new game the Total War series has been getting bigger and better, until now it's ready to take on the whole world. For the first time you can build an entire global empire, with up to fifty factions available, from the British and French to American revolutionaries.
With a history dating back to 1987, this developer came into their own with Shogun: Total War in 2000. Based in Horsham, West Sussex the studio has also dabbled with action games such as Viking: Battle for Asgard and their first Sci-Fi strategy game Stormrise. They were bought by Sega in 2005.
Product Description
Empire: Total War introduces a host of revolutionary new features, including true 3D naval combat. For the first time in the Total War series, you will be able to intuitively command single ships or vast fleets upon seascapes rich with extraordinary water and weather effects that play a huge role in your eventual glorious success or ignominious defeat. After pummeling your enemy with cannon fire, close in to grapple their ship and prepare to board, taking control of your men as they fight hand-to-hand on the decks of these wooden behemoths.
In addition, Empire: Total War will see further enhancements to the Total War series' signature 3D battles and turn-based campaign map. Real-time battles will pose new challenges with the addition of cannon and musket, challenging players to master new formations and tactics as a result of the increasing role of gunpowder within warfare. And the Campaign Map - for many, the heart of Total War - introduces a variety of new and upgraded elements, including new systems for Trade, Diplomacy and Espionage with agents; a refined and streamlined UI; improved Advisors; and a vastly extended scope.

 Large doesn't even begin to describe the scale of this game |
 The naval battles feature an astonishing amount of detail |
 The world map is where all the strategy and diplomacy goes on |
 Expand the British Empire or destroy it - the choice is yours |
Like the previous Total War titles the gameplay is split into two main parts, with overall strategy, diplomacy and resource management taking place on a turn-based world map. Actual battles are controlled directly by you though.
The strategy elements are more engrossing than ever, but it's the battles that really steal the show, with incredible graphics that may be the most detailed ever seen. For the first time you can control naval combat hands-on, while rifles and artillery play a much more central role than ever before. If you thought strategy games were boring and slow, this is the game to change your mind.
Key Features- Imperial power: Take control of the empire of your choice in a worldwide quest for territory that runs from 1700 to the early 19th century.
- A sailor's life: For the first time you can control naval combat yourself, with authentic ships, weapons and tactics that evolve as time goes on.
- Century of change: As the 18th century progresses the art of war evolves, with more modern style battles involving artillery barrages, snipers and riflemen.
- Pretty face: With an incredible eye for detail and historical accuracy, the amazing new graphics also allow for factors such as the weather to be properly simulated.
- Online empire: For the first time in a Total War game you can compete in a full campaign multiplayer mode, not just one-off real-time battles.
