Release Date: March 3, 2009
The fifth installment in the popular strategy game series created by Creative Assembly in 2000. This new game is set in the 18th century, focusing on key events of the period, such as the American Civil War, the Industrial Revolution, and the rivalry over the Eastern trade routes. Although the core concept of the gameplay remains the same, the mechanics went through some major alterations, mainly due to the introduction of sea warfare.
Empire: Total War is the fifth installment in the eponymous RTS series, launched back in 2000 with the release of Shogun: Total War. It was developed exclusively for PC by Creative Assembly.
The game depicts the most important events of the 18th century such as the Industrial Revolution, the American Revolutionary War, or the struggle for control over the Eastern trade routes, among others. The selected events of the period occur in the campaigns created by the developers.
The latest game in the Total War franchise introduces some revolutionary changes and offers several entirely new options. The basic gameplay mechanics remain very similar, though. We still operate within two screens. The tactical one lets us govern our empire in turns. Battles, however, are fought in real time, which makes the game similar to other RTS productions. Furthermore, the main campaign screen was enriched with new trade, diplomacy, and espionage options. The behavior of our advisers was also enhanced, making their advice more accurate.
The biggest novelty offered by Empire: Total War is the ability to fight sea battles, which were unavailable in the previous installments of the Total War series. In the game, we can command entire flotillas as well as single ships. We can either try to sink hostile vessels or try to take them over by means of boarding. We are given some new attractions in classic battles as well, such as cannons and muskets. Units can also assume new formations.
Empire: Total War for PC presents even higher visual quality than its predecessors. The enhancements were made in the appearance of water, among other things. What is interesting, weather conditions at sea have a significant impact on the outcome of battles, for example: a powerful storm can render some tactics impossible to carry out.
