Welcome to Total War Saga: Thrones of Britannia on the TWC Wiki



Britannia banner.png


Total War Saga: Thrones of Britannia is the first in a new class of Total War game developed by The Creative Assembly
The game was released on 3 May, 2018 for Microsoft Windows and for MacOS and Linux on 24 May 2018. The Total War Saga games are intended to be standalone spin-off titles which concentrate on short pivotal moments in history occurring in limited geographic areas.


Overview

Total War Saga: Thrones of Britannia has the same structure of real-time battles and a turn-based campaign as the major releases in the Total War Series but is concentrated around one critical flashpoint in history. As described by CA:

"The year is 878 AD, the embattled English king Alfred the Great has mounted a heroic defence at the battle of Edington, and blunted the Viking invasion. Chastened – but not yet broken – the Norse warlords have settled across Britain. For the first time in nearly 80 years, the land is in a fragile state of peace.
Throughout this sceptred isle, the kings of England, Scotland, Ireland and Wales sense a time of change approaching; a time of opportunity. There will be treaties. There will be war. There will be turns of fortune that become the stuff of legend, in a saga that charts the ascent of one of history’s greatest nations.
Kings will rise. One will rule."

General Information

Thrones of Britannia is set in the British Isles starting in 878 AD and comprises 10 playable factions. The game uses the same 32-bit engine as Total War: Attila.

Campaign Map

CA's Thrones of Britannia - Campaign Map Reveal explained the size difference between the Britannia map and the size of the British Isles as they appeared in Total War: Attila. The Britannia map being 23x larger allowed for much greater detail in the coastline and more realistic height modelling.

Provinces in Britannia are still made up of multiple regions, as in Attila, but now only the province capitals have walls and garrisons. The minor settlements in a province still have building slots which allow them to provide food or other resources to the owner of the capital, but do not have their own walls or garrisons.
