Warhammer: Total War, or WHTW for short, is a mod for Rome: Total war (version 1.5) that changes the games setting from ancient Europe to the Warhammer Fantasy universe, much like Call of Warhammer does for Medieval 2: Total War.

History
This mod was started in the autumn of 2004, with the first discussion and tossing of ideas taking place in a thread at totalwar.com. However, for a time the mod died due to the mod team realising that the mod was unlikely to be completed before the release of Medieval 2: Total War. However, Jubal_Barca revisited the mod, and a version with a working campaign and a number of different factions was finally released in August 2007.
Features
- As would be expected from a mod of this kind, every unit is brand new, ranging from Empire Knights through to Elvish Chariots and Chaos Daemons. Every faction has a unique unit roster.
- There are 18 factions in this mod-Altdorf, Middenheim, Araby, Brettonia, Wood Elves, High Elves, Dark Elves, Hordes of Chaos, Dwarfs, Ogres, Orcs+Goblins, Luccini, Kislev, Vampire Counts, Tomb Kings, Skaven, Dragon Islanders, Chaos Dwarfs and the Lizardmen. Each has its own strengths and weaknesses, and individual victory conditions.
- Each faction has its own part of the new campaign map, which, bearing in mind the limits and nature of the game, is reasonably accurate. The campaign is still technically a beta, but is stable enough to play.
- Unique building trees for each of the factions.
- New loading screens with a Warhammer Fantasy theme.
