A simple to use menu displays all the world powers set into groups of Major and Minor powers. However,diplomacy has been sharpened up across the board, as you now no longer need to track down a rival king or agent in order to discuss international relations. As in the previous games, they serve very little purpose aside from watching the initially-entertaining clips which show the duels that you can send your Gentlemen to carry out killings of other Gentlemen. Unfortunately, the game has included the ineffective and redundant emissaries, now under the title “Gentlemen,” who are a cross between a diplomatic agent and a spy. Through the campaign you must not only govern your empire?s armies, but also your people’s taxation and happiness, trade, diplomacy, subterfuge and technology. Don’t be put off by the “short” 100-year campaign though even a 50 year campaign will take a serious amount of time to complete, as one turn equals half a year. The “long campaign” option stretches right across the whole of the 18th Century. This allows you to take over any one of several nations, and, starting in the year 1700, strive to accomplish a set of objectives, involving capturing other provinces. The Grand Campaign is where you will spend most of your time in E:TW. This prospect will no doubt daunt both new and veteran players, as your campaign objectives will often require you to take over provinces all over the map.However, some of the ambitious features of the game fail to meet the polished standards of the previous games. And as many will be glad to hear, the map size is much bigger this go-round Empire Total War lets you spread your kingdom through all of Europe and north Asia, all of North America, the Caribbean and India.
As with the previous games, you will still be expected to take control of a fledgling country and turn it into an empire spanning the breadth of the map. This new iteration features several new gameplay elements such as naval combat, realistically modelled gunpowder weapons and more. Empire: Total War is the latest game in the Total War franchise, renowned for its huge battles, complex strategy and rewarding gameplay.
