Some concerns about the campaign report

[Megas Methuselah]

2) You're describing a game that goes against everything that is Total War for the past 7+ years. The game you are describing is NOT a Total War game. That's why nobody is really agreeing with you.

No, he isn't. Every faction had different win conditions in M2TW and RTW, too. Also, there were preset diplomatic relations at the start of each game in the other TW titles.

1) Relax...nobody's attacking you or criticising you.

Uh... Yes, you are. Deliberate sarcasm, see below:

Have you played Total War titles before?
