Anno Online vs Total War: Warhammer
Anno Online
Anno Online is an amazing, free-to-play browser MMO strategy game based on the renowned Anno game series by Ubisoft. The gameplay in this game is quite similar to The Settlers Online where you need to strategically build your empire and trade the resources you get with other players. The sole exception between these two games is Anno Online's famous, grid-based naval battles.In some way, Anno Online is a more historically accurate version of The Settlers Online where the goal is not to annihilate your opponents but to manage your kingdom well and help it to grow. We can confidently say that this is a game that will definitely engage players who love the genre for hours.
Total War: Warhammer
Total War: Warhammer perfectly combines one of the best fantasy-adventure literature of all time with one of the best historical real-time strategy games in gaming history. Deviating from their usual historically-based titles, Total War: Warhammer is set in the rich, expansive, and most defintiely fictional universe of Warhammer, where war between the 5 major races, namely the Bretonnia, the Empire, the Dwarfs, the Vampire Counts and the Greenskins, is a pretty constant occurrence. Amass an army filled with all manner of creatures imaginable and appoint powerful Lords, equipped with the best items you cna offer, to lead your battalions in massive real-time battles.Not to mention, being a fantasy-themed game, you can now use magic to combat your foes and deploy flying units - the first time ever for a Total War game.
Featuring top-of-the-line graphics and animations, Total War: Warhammer is a marvellously-crafted and meticulously-designed masterpiece of a game. There are still some flaws that the game can work on like the sieges (need more stuff for defenders) and maybe not add in what should have been free game patches as purchasable DLCs, but that aside, the game is as great as large-scaled battles go.
