J'ai jamais accroché à la série des Total War. J'ai essayé Rome TW et Medieval TW2 mais rien à faire, la sauce ne prend pas.
Pourtant, j'adore les jeux de stratégie, je suis un grand grand fan des Civilization (Rhaaa la découverte du 1er il y a.....pfiouuuu :D).

Dommage car le mod a l'air sympa, ce serait à tester.

Disons que TW II presente 2 facettes : la carte stratégique/gestion qui se rapproche de Civilization sans en atteindre sa complexité, et les phases de combats qui virent au temp rèél tactique...ou la frontiere parfois entre une tactique bien orchestrée pour diriger son armée et un gros tas de petits trucs grouillant à l'ecran est mince  ;D

Oh, je crois que tu viens de parfaitement résumer pourquoi je n'accroche pas à la série là ;D

Ca et le fait que je suis un ardent défenseur du tour par tour.
