The game that made the TW saga a classic.

For someone that played a lot Shogun TW like me, playing RTW for the first time was absolutely stunning.
The vanilla game is superbly done. The battles, the strategy map, visual & sound effects, physics.... you name it.
What made this game even greater were it's excellent mods.

It's greatest flaw, however, was shared by it's successor, M2TW and it's expansion Kingdoms: The lack of naval battles on the battlemap. Which came only when Empires TW came out.

A literally EPIC classic.

Enjoyable for a short duration at playing Napoleonic period battles; however lacks graphics, a campaign and naturally quickly runs thin of entertainment,,, but still a decent bad game
Simply divine as one if not the best strategy Total War game ever made. Tons of exciting things and events to do, graphics a little out dated and inaccurate; however still a good game to this day.

Graphics (8.1/10)
Game play (8.2/10)
Narrative Story Telling: (7.1/10)
Maps: (4.9/10)
Skins (7.0/10)
Entertainment (9.3/10)

Overall result: 9.0/10 = 90% on DaggerClassStudio's Game Mod Rating
= An Excellent Game

Amazing RTS game which allows control of grand armies. Good economy and a wide variety of units allowing the player to have a great gaming experience.

Hands down one of the greatest strategy games ever made and the game that introduced me to the genre. Not only a fun and immersing game but an innovative game. A hybrid of RTS (Real Time Strategy) and TBS (Turn Based Strategy) unlike most anything else on the market. While the original Shogun and Medieval were also great games in their own rights, Rome was when the game that took everything to the next level.

RTW is simply the classic of the strategy genre - not to mention with one of the best ranges of mods out there. Genuinely a fantastic title, and still not showing its age!

For as many years as this game has been out i have played it, this game is a grand mix of diplomatic strategy and a real time battlefield strategy game mixed into the perfectly crafted game called Rome Total War.
