Nords: Heroes of the North vs Total War: Shogun 2
Nords: Heroes of the North
Nords: Heroes of the North is a Viking-themed MMO strategy game that generally resembles Plarium's Viking: War of Clans but is yet quite different. In this game, the realm of Shingård is under siege and it is up to you to forge a ragtag army of Northmen, Orcs, Elves and Dragons to fight for King Björn the Awesome and defend the realm. The game features over 30 different units from 4 different factions along with a variety of heroes that you can build an army with. Satiate the bloodlust of your Norsemen now and send them to fight, complete with full animated battles, for loot and glory in Nords: Heroes of the North!
Total War: Shogun 2
Total War: Shogun 2 is the highly anticipated sequel to the groundbreaking original game, Shogun: Total War. Set in the darkest age of Feudal Japan right after the collapse of a unified government (in 16th century to be exact), many warring clans have risen through the chaos and out of them, 10 legendary warlords, or Daimyos, have their eyes set on the coveted position of shogun, but only one of them will be able to reunite a warring island.The gameplay is pretty similar to the original game. The campaign map features a turn-based, Risk-style gameplay while the actual battles themselves (rendered in glorious 3D) are played out in real-time. However, this time around, the game is filled with a ton of new units, including massive warships, as well as a more in-depth strategic gameplay based on the ancient texts in Sun Tzu's Art of War. There are multi-stage sieges, unique hero units who can be improved through standard RPG methods, and that the campaign map is now in 3D as well and can be rotated whichever way you like.
The campaign in Total War: Shogun 2 can also be played cooperatively (2 players), but if you truly want to test your skills, you can engage in epic online battles with up to 8 other players.
This game does the very first Total War game justice and is the sort of game that fans of the series would greatly enjoy. Also, considering that the game came out more than 5 years ago, the graphics in the game is still pretty relevant today... so I guess, that's another bonus.
