Total War: Attila is the ninth Total War game by the Creative Assembly. It was released for Windows and OS X on 17 February, 2015.
Contents
General Information
Total War: Attila is set in the late Roman at 395 AD. The campaign allows the player to take control of either of the Roman Empires, the Sassanid Persians, one of the various Germanic tribes, and more.
Campaign Map
The campaign map in Attila is very similar to the one in Total War: Rome II. It stretches from Morocco to Caspian sea, and from Hibernia to Arabian peninsula.
Engine
The game engine is the improved and reworked version of the Rome II's. Although not identical, the two are largely similar.
Gameplay
Unlike other Total War games, Total War: Attila is mostly based on surviving. You can see that throughout the game, even in the victory conditions. However this doesn't mean you have to be defensive all the time.
In the details of the campaign mechanics, we now have an improved and reworked version of the Horde mechanics from Rome: Total War: Barbarian Invasion. A horde is a combination of a large army and a mobile city. This comes with a price however, because if you lose the army, then you lose the horde and all its development.
Attila has an improved, reworked version of Family tree and Politics too. Now you can manage them both in more detail than before. There are many options for player to attempt, but AI is also capable of using these same abilities. So you might expect some political intrigue against yourself too!
One of the differences Attila has from Rome II is the use of edicts on any region, however there must be a Governor of that province to issue them. That governor, chosen by the player from your family or an opposing one that will rule your province by himself. In doing so, he will gain some experience from running the city, which will give him some levels and skill points that improve his abilities.
Apart from cultural differences, religions and religious buildings play a big role in the game. It doesn't just effect a city's public order, but it also effects diplomatic relations between factions, just like cultural differences do.
Battles are mostly open field and siege battles, with very few naval battles. There are a few more bonuses for each side of siege battles in Attila that weren't in other Total War games. Watch towers can now be found in any settlement type. Defenders have the ability to erect some temporary barricades that close off some roads to buy time or defend.
Last but not least, the UI has gone threw some major changes by the Creative Assembly. The style has been reworked and has becoming simpler to use and have more options over Rome II's.
Playable Factions
There are ten playable factions on Grand Campaign without any DLC (at release) and twenty nine with all DLCs. As for Campaign packs, there are thirteen playable factions in total.
