Total War: Warhammer vs Total War: Warhammer II
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.
Total War: Warhammer II
Total War: Warhammer II drops you into this universe as the leader of one of 4 armies, bent on either saving or controlling the world depending on the race you play. Choose to be a saviour as a High Elf or Lizardman, or take control as the Dark Elves or rat like Skaven. The twin comets have destabilized the Vortex that holds back the tides of Chaos, and you must decide what you will do, and battle the other armies that stand in your way to claim victory.With a mix of both Real Time Strategy and Turn Based mechanics that popularized the series you have the controls and game style that you know with an incredible styling and the lore of this much loved universe.
