Finally a fantasy based total war game with heroes unique units and spells. Highly addictive you will lose tons of sleep. On the bad side is quite hard as the difficulty even on normal rises very high fast and you got to compensate with tricky tactics like specialized armies for certain weather conditions and spells to deal with the vast armies you have to face each turn. Would like to see more fantasy units like dragons and other stuff though. I had always wondered why no one had made something like that since the engine was there and fantasy units and heroes would add so much spice in the game. You have to use spells of weather control along with special units that get stronger in that weather to dominate the battlefield as you can't afford loses as you have to fight tons of battle.
Not much to say certainly game of the year for me as i loved the series Total War and was waiting like crazy for something like that to come out.
