New GAME - not expansion - full game in the Total War series.  I guess Empire: Total War was the beta for this?

QuoteNapoleon: Total War™

History is as yet unwritten.

Napoleon: Total War™ is the new chapter to the critically acclaimed Total War™ series and opens up a new narrative layer to the genre-defining franchise. From the early Italian campaign to the battle of Waterloo, Napoleon covers two decades of relentless battles, a backdrop of a world in flames against which the story of an extraordinary military career unfolds.

Whether you play as or against the legendary general, the outcome of war can never be guaranteed. The course of history relies on your ability to lead your troops through the most intense battles as never seen before in a Total War game.

I haven't bought Empire.  I doubt I'll buy this.
I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

I'll wait for mods to fix it before buying. I liked Shogun, didn't try Medieval 1, didn't like Rome, loved Medieval 2, was sorely disappointed by Empire.

I could see myself getting it if the demo and critique was good. I'm a sucker for lovely maps, and the Egypt map in Stainless steel was nice.

I'll buy this. If I keep supporting this company, eventually they'll make Shogun II...

 Loved shogun, M:TW and R:TW (well, EB anyway..). Didint get empire, or MTW2; this has even more potential than that disaster empire to produce the secession war mod i've always wanted.
It can't be helped...We'll have to use 'that'

Or you could, you know, not buy their products until they make Shogun II.

I tried that with Firaxis waiting for SMACII.

It does not work :(

I still play R:TW on occasion. I usually tire of it when I have too many battles, which take a lot of time (I don't usually like using auto-battles). But still, fun game and good variety to it.

My M2TW with Stainless Steel now works very well on my new computer.  :yeah: Unfortunately, it's a huge time-waster.

I deeply disliked Shogun.  Loved Medieval 1 and Rome and Medieval 2 and very hesitant to get Empire since it apparently doesn't work.
