Improved core gameplay and UI through the latest optimised and modified Total War game mechanics, including politics, family tree, civic management and technological progression. Playing as the Western Roman Empire you will begin with vast territories under your control, but weakened by political in-fighting and threatened on all sides by enemies, your dominance will quickly become a struggle to survive. Wield the ferocious power of fire in battle to set buildings ablaze and terrify defenders, or wipe entire cities and regions from the face of the campaign map with the new raze mechanic. How far will you go to survive? Will you sweep oppression from the world and carve out a barbarian or Eastern kingdom of your own? Or will you brace against the coming storm as the last remnants of the Roman Empire, in the ultimate survival-strategy challenge?
A time of apocalyptic turmoil at the very dawn of the Dark Ages. The next instalment in the multi award-winning series that combines turn-based strategy with real-time tactics, Total War: ATTILA casts players back to 395 AD.
With a million horsemen at his back, the ultimate warrior king approaches, and his sights are set on Rome… Against a darkening background of famine, disease and war, a new power is rising in the great steppes of the East.
