Hello, there.

Does anyone here play Medieval II Total War or any other Total War game in the series? Both I and Wat are favourable of the game. I just finished a campaign with England, and was going to try Scotland, but I couldn't get into the Scottish.

So I am perhaps gooing to start a new, more serious campaign wih England. Or start with either France, Portugal or Spain.

For those who don't know, here is a quick overview from Wikipedia:


Similar to previous titles of the Total War series, the game consists of two modes of play: battles and single-player campaign. Battles can be played in multiplayer, in user-defined scenarios, or in historical scenarios which simulate real battles such as the Battle of Arsuf or the Battle of Agincourt. Battles are also featured in the campaign.

The campaign allows the player to assume control of a faction of the time period, and build a civilization, both economically and militarily in order to conquer other factions. Gameplay consists of controlling the faction's military, economic, and social systems in large campaign maps. During the player's turn, armies, fleets, and agents can be moved on the map. When an army engages another army, the player can choose to fight the battle personally in the battle mode, or automatically calculate the outcome.

The goal of the campaign depends on which type of campaign is played. The short campaign requires the player to defeat one or two enemy factions (for example, England must defeat its historical enemies Scotland and France) and control at least 15-20 settlements. The long campaign requires the player to control at least 45 territories and one or two significant cities, which are faction specific, such as Jerusalem, Granada, Rome or Constantinople.

I love this game:thumbs up I finished Polish campain ofcourse, and in "Kingdoms" I played with pagan Lithuania faction. Since I have laptop with only 128 MB graphic card I back to Rome Total War.
I recommend great mods to Total War: Lithuanian Total War (http://www.twcenter.net/forums/forumdisplay.php?f=242)(Extansion Kingdoms) and Vlad Total War (http://www.twcenter.net/forums/forumdisplay.php?f=100)(Extansion Barbarian Invasion).
