Re: What Total War Games do Org Members have?
Got all the games, but I had to start somewhere. I did with the viking campaign of MTW:VI.
I can't run M2TW on my computer, and it is not working very well on my girlfriend's. I'll wait a while!
Played Rome a wee bit to test the game. My father actually plays a lot at RTW, to my surprise.
Never tried Shogun. Soon.

Well, I do remember three or four of my friends speaking of STW like constantly five year's ago: we were playing a collectible card game connected to medieval japan at that time, and the were excited like drunken rabbits about that game.
I came to the total War games when medieval came out, being quite fan of this historical period. But I had to wait to have a proper computer. Then another game (Civilization III) came out and took ALL my computer game time! Until the ERA's box. Because I wanted so badly to play the viking campaign.
But I'll give a shot to shogun, of course! :yes:
Re: What Total War Games do Org Members have?
I remember playing Shogun so many years ago that its really just a hazy memory; and I never really related this game to Rome when I bought it. It only occured to me once I started reading the .org
oh the distant memories.
But I love Rome, it drives me nuts sometimes but I really enjoy it, I've got the BI expantion as part of the Gold Disc but haven't played it yet.
My dad bought me M2TW for my birthday coz he's great but my computer isn't powerful enough for it and he's not quite great enough to buy me a new one... .seems to think I'm old enough to be buying my own.
TUT.
Played M2 on a friends computer however as England and was surprised by the slow speed of the battles !! thats gonna take some getting used to !!
Gonna finish my Egypt game; wiping out the last of the romans, then will probably decide between a Greek game or moving onto BI.
TW is my top gaming experience. :2thumbsup:

LOL! Good one!
To everyone:
By the way, Rome is the only game in the TW series that I own (and I'm glad I do). If I were to give consideration to buying another game in this series, which one would you recommend? Or - are there other titles outside of the series that I might want to check out?

If you have a fairly modern computer, you should probably get M2TW. Sharing the same engine as RTW, you will feel right at home with it. It needs another patch, but that's on the way.
Otherwise, MTW/VI (buy them together) is a good bet - like RTW and M2TW, it has a lot of variety in its campaigns. STW has very good battles, but more basic and less varied campaigns. With both of the older games, coming from RTW, it may take a while getting used to the older graphics and the Risk style map.
Also, don't forget the RTW mods. Rome Total Realism vastly improved RTW for me. The release of Europa Barbarorum 0.81 is just around the corner.
Finally, I personally have a soft spot for Barbarian Invasion. I just like the premise of shoring up a declining Roman Empire - the atmospheric opening movie is worth the price of admission to me. It also has some very nice mods - Goth mod and IBFD; I think RTR 7.0 will require it too.

Not necessarily, M2TW has higher system requirements. You can test if your PC meets the requirements by going to this website and choosing M2TW from the list of games:

The safe thing to do in such a case is try the demo. The actual game runs better than the demo, but still - if the demo is unplayable, I would think hard before buying the real thing.
