Shogun: Total War vs Tribal Wars 2
Shogun: Total War
Shogun: Total War is the first original title in a legendary, 15-year (and counting), award-winning, real-time strategy game series that currently spanned across multiple themes and settings. However, this game is set in ancient Japan - 1542 to be exact - when the last shogunate collapsed and the entire nation is thrown into conflict as multiple daimyo (faction leaders) vie for the most powerful seat. To make things worst, Europeans have also ventured to island at this point, bringing guns, religion and disease - factors that you'll eventually have to deal with if you are to attain the people's support and conquer the whole of Japan.The gameplay in Shogun: Total War is akin to Rise of Nations in the sense that each battle is carried out in real-time, but moving your troops on the world map is pretty much turn-based (Risk-style). However, unlike the latter, the battle itself is purely consisted of the actual fighting rather than having you build a base and amassing resources and an army. Instead, Shogun lets you view the entire battlefield from any view you like and send commands to your troops as the battle unfolds. This is basically something that's unheard of until this game came along.
Shogun: Total War may be an old game by modern standards, and due to this, many players might simply opt for its sequel in order to have a taste of that this game has to offer. However, if you truly want to experience the very first of the Total War series, this is the game to play.
Tribal Wars 2
Tribal Wars 2 is a fantastic MMORTS game set in medieval times in a war-torn land. The game provides pretty much the best of traditional strategic gameplay of developing your village, building an army and conquering neighboring towns. However, what sets Tribal Wars 2 apart from its predecessor is that "hero system", where you can and need to recruit powerful paladins to head your armies. Paladins themselves can be equipped with gear to further enhance their combat abilities. Being the newer game, Tribal Wars 2 also has a larger playerbase, allowing players like you to have an even more enjoyable time fighting tooth and nail for control of certain regions on the map.Tribal Wars 2 has everything you'd need from a high quality MMORTS game. Best yet, the game's available on your mobile devices - both Android and iOS - too!
