Genres:Strategy, Turn-based strategy (TBS), Real Time Strategy (RTS), Tactical
Themes:Fantasy, Historical, Warfare, 4X (explore, expand, exploit, and exterminate)
Game modes:Single player, Multiplayer
Story:Experience the middle Ages in all their blood-soaked magnificence. From the lush grasslands of Western Europe to the arid deserts of Northern Africa, from the first Crusade to the fall of Constantinople, implement diplomacy, utilize trade, espionage and assassinations, spread your religion and wage total war in order to expand your influence and secure your reign as you build a dynastic empire to stretch across four centuries.
Total War is the follow on from 2000’s Shogun- Total War. As with Shogun the game is split into two sections – the turn-based campaign map wherein the player is required to make strategic decisions, recruit and move armies, besiege settlements, fight naval battles and employ agents such as emissaries, spies and assassins to aid with diplomacy, offer alliances or bribes, or execute rather more clandestine actions.
Religion is important in the game and whether a faction is Muslim, Orthodox or Christian will affect allegiances and public loyalty – as a catholic nation the player must carry out the wishes of the Papal States, embarking on a holy war if need be or else run the risk of excommunication. If public order and loyalty should fall too low in a particular region a rebellion or a civil war may occur – in these situations the player may decide to side with the rebels or the current rulers to quell the rebellion or overthrow a tyrannous regime-Show more

It does battlefield-simulation better then the rest essentially - this in a way that even later TW-titles never managed to replicate or surpass. If you like battlefield-combat simulations and leading armies - this is it! Overall it is - despite its several design-flaws and shortcomings - a very well crafted (especially in battle-mode) and enjoyable game! Easy to understand but hard to master. Ridicolous replayability by design, and it has many solid mods made for it! The GFX is dated by todays standards but the game-experience itself is still top-notch, even today. This is a true classic, a GOG-must if there ever was one!
this game, along with the Viking Invasion expansion, is the best iteration of the whole series. would love to see this available on GoG before my CDs die. Steam has the "Gold" edition, which crashes constantly and without remorse, get the original and VI.
Also, really easy to mod stuff in this game
Le jeu a vieilli et ne mérite pas qu'on s'y intéresse (à moins de la nostalgie) tellement MTW2 est incroyable.
En revanche AUCUN TW n'a réussi à recréer cette ambiance musicale de malade mentale qui décrit MTW1. Allez voir les tracks de la BO c'est simplement incroyable.
