Release Date: February 17, 2015
Another chapter in the Total War large-scale strategy game series, created and developed by the Creative Assembly studio. After a couple of sequels to the earlier installments in the series (e.g. Medieval, Shogun, and Rome), the developers took on a new great historical figure. The game is set in the late 4th and the early 5th century CE.
Total War: Attila is a grand strategy game with turn-based empire management and real-time battles. It was developed by Creative Assembly studio, the authors of all previous installments of the series.
The action begins in the year 395, more than eighty years before the collapse of the western part of the Roman empire and the beginning of the Middle Ages, thus allowing to play a truly fascinating and rarely used in games period in history. The campaign focuses on a relatively short time period, at least by series standards, but pursues it in much greater detail. Among the playable factions are the major powers of the period, ranging from both parts of the declining Roman Empire, the young kingdoms of the Franks and Saxons and numerous tribes of wandering barbarians, to the nomadic Huns and the oriental Sassanid Empire. Thanks to the variety of starting situations and victory conditions, each faction is played differently, so that both novice strategists and veterans of the series looking for a real challenge will find something for themselves in Attila.
Just like previous installments of the series, Total War: Attila is a mix of RTS and turn-based strategy. We fight gigantic battles in real time, in which thousands of soldiers can take part. On the other hand, a strategic layer takes place in turns, requiring us to take care of the economic, military and technological development of our subjects and diplomatic relations. At the same time, the authors have introduced a number of new features designed to fully reflect the military, social and religious turmoil of the time. Fans will be particularly pleased by the return of the family tree, which was missing in Rome II, thanks to which we get the opportunity to sow intrigues, appoint officials, manage families and relations between specific citizens. In addition, pestilence has become a deadly threat, and if we do not keep the cities clean, their populations can quickly fall victim to a variety of plagues. Diseases can also bring enemy armies to the centers of civilization during clashes and sieges. The game also realistically reflects the religious and even weather situation, forcing players to station armies in cities and field camps during the winter, or to prepare supplies given the climatic changes that were occurring in Europe at the time. General cooling caused worse crops and resulted in regular famines.
Battles, on the other hand, are enriched by the ability to make clever use of fire, with engine improvements making it able to realistically spread and engulf buildings and sow panic among defenders. In addition, Creative Assembly studio has improved the interface (the classic images of troops have been returned and their identification on the battlefield has been simplified) and significantly improved the graphics, both on the tactical map and during battles. The entire game has been made with enormous attention to historical realism, so that it could reproduce the realities of that period as faithfully as possible.

Guide to Total War: Attila is a very extensive compendium of knowledge about this hard and challenging game.
Warner Bros. has recalled it owns the rights to the Lord of the Rings movie universe. As a result, a mod developed for years, called Rise of Mordor for Total War: Atilla, disappeared from Mod DB.

The Last Roman expansion introduces an extensive, story-driven campaign that begins in 533 AD, that is, with the fall of the Western Roman Empire, which created room for many barbarian kingdoms. It is also when the emperor Justinian decides to make a last-ditch effort to resurrect the fallen legend and sends the titular Last Roman to fight for him. The person is an experienced commander called Belisarius, who can either re-conquer the lands for the emperor or become the monarch of the west themselves, depending on the player's actions.

Game Ratings for Total War: Attila Video Game.
Game Revolution: 4 / 5 by Griffin Vacheron
Perhaps it's best to think of it this way: If the occasional AI glitch or incoming onslaught of paid DLC gives you unbearable or unwanted flashbacks to Rome II, then you may want to avoid Attila altogether. But for everyone else, you'd be remiss to deprive yourself of a rich, captivating experience that, though not quite perfect now, will likely achieve true greatness via updates well before its successor arrives.
Game Informer: 8 / 10 by Daniel Tack
If you've played a Total War game before, you know what to expect. Despite some new mechanics and ways to play, the core is cultivating your expansive holdings or charging headlong into battle.
Attack of the Fanboy: 4 / 5
All things considered, this is a solid Total War game that, while being far from revolutionary and requiring just a little bit more polish before official release, will be far better than Total War Rome 2 can ever hope to be.
