Empire & Napoleon TW GOTY, worth it if I'm a new to the series?

I'm not gonna lie, the steam sale on this title is kinda tempting but as the title implies I've never player a TW game (I know shame on me...) so I'd like to know how accessible are these games for someone completely new to the series?

Should I give this a miss and save my money?

TiA.

If your ok with "meh" graphics go with Rome Total War. It's the best in the whole series IMO

i have been playing with total war:empire for 2 months now and it is one of the best games i have ever played. some people had issues with the game though, so cant guarantee performance
