Total Napoleon War
faraany3k | Aug. 27, 2011 | See all faraany3k's reviews »Another superb addition to a great series. Napoleon Total War is a cinematic and engrossing life journey of one of the most iconic Generals in history. Unlike the previous TW title Empire, where focus was more on diverse civilizations. Napoleon TW generally covers the life of this great general. Single player is more focused this time around with a lot more character and storyline which was missing in the previous titles. Single player campaign now features episodic campaign featuring many different phases of Napoleon life. Game as a whole isn't much of a improvement over the previous title but still fun as both the RTS and TBS section are still intact with all there might and grandness.
Mutiplayer section has also been given a lot of attention this time around and ACHIEVEMENTS have been added that give game an additional layer of replayabailty. If you are a fan of TW series and looking for a much tighter and focused single player campaign with fully realized story, Napoleon: Total War is the best title for you.

Apart from a better multiplayer and graphics, not too improved.
mevidek | Aug. 19, 2011 | See all mevidek's reviews »Napoleon: Total War is essentially a stand-alone expansion pack for Empire: Total War. Not expanding in many ways, this game isn't exactly revolutionary, but rather evolutionary. An improved Multiplayer and graphics may attract some, but still even though this is not the best Total War Game, fans of the series and genre should still purchase this for a try.

Not Much Improvement
JovoSK | Aug. 16, 2011 | See all JovoSK's reviews »Napoleon: Total War was very similar to Empire. While the campaign was very fun to play, gameplay lacked innovation. In my opinion, this could have settled off as an expansion pack, not a full game.
As with Empire, warfare is massive. Huge, fast attacks are the name of the game. Hitting your enemy from multiple sides, and outmaneuvering their troops is what wins wars, and Napoleon delivers. Unfortunately, sea battles are hard to get the hang of, and really aren't worth the time.
If you can organize a match with friends, this game is sure to entertain, as multiplayer is a key component of the Total War series.

Just empire
hotmando1 | July 14, 2011 | See all hotmando1's reviews »This game is basically empire:total war reskinned. All the patches that should have entered Empire:total war went into Napoleon instead. This is why the game feels so polished and etc. The new units are not really super-exciting or anything of the sort. Visuals are improved but not as much as shogun2 was improved. Still, glitches and bugs are extremely low compared to Empire:total War. If you like empire, you should just stick with it. If you got extra cash, get Napoleon! Total war never lets down players nevertheless.

Be a Napoleon
satyakun | June 22, 2011 | See all satyakun's reviews »This game is a really cool game. The campaign will tell you about the life story of Napoleon. From his rise in France until the fight in Waterloo. Inside the game, tactic is the most influential thing. Do something unplanned and your army will decrease. this make it a bit difficult, but it realistic right? the graphic are far improved and smooth now, also with the sound scheme. Very recommended for you who love the Total War experience!
