![]() ![]() the "perk" system is also a bit different where in civ you get bonuses as they level up in TW2 they have their improved abilities (accuracy, melee/range damage, defence etc.) depending on where they are built and leveling up just makes them slightly more skilled (much like irl). a lot more complex where you can use different units (spies and such) to influence the enemies troops in different manners. then there is the actual combat which i think is a lot better than civ. not really any manner of "run-away" clans, sure some become strong but then there is often another strong one which is agro against the other one (balancing system). However there is still tons of diplomacy, much more than civ in fact (or at least more reasonable) trade agreements, alliances are all super important and will help/destroy you. you ofc still have clans (in shogun at least) with different capabilities which you tend to lean towards but nothing on the importance scale of civ. you got two different "tech" trees which supply different things, one more domestic improvements or things which help stabilize your holdings and another which focuses on direct war. You focus on your efforts in improving your military might, which can still be done in multiple ways. in total war:2 (for shogun at least) its as it says "total war". it also focuses a lot of managing what is being worked and stuff inside the city radius. Its quite a bit different, with civ you start with nothing and rely on your civ's UA,UU,UB to progress you or choose your VC. ![]() That's my shortcoming, and not TW's, though. Honestly, though, I probably enjoy Civ more simply because I'm better at handling the slower battle pace. Well, unless you're able to think and react very quickly, which I cannot.Īnyway, they're different games with some elements in common, and I thoroughly enjoy both of them. If the game is playing on normal speed you could miss what's happening and lose the entire cavalry unit before you can retreat. Say you've decided to charge into a unit's flank with your calvary and he rushes a group of spearman over to stick their pikes up your horse's backsides. ![]() I usually slow the game speed down so I can watch everything unfold and not lose entire units to a split second change in the enemy attack. Total War also requires a lot of attention to real time unit management on the battlefield, which I'm frankly not very good at. I mean, it is called Total WAR for a reason. Eventually your allies will turn on you as you become more powerful. There are some Civ elements to TW, but it's nearly impossible to play peacefully with certain factions. ![]()
