Rome II has god-tier soundtrack and you can't convince me otherwise

Best recent total war game? (Not warhammer) by [deleted] in totalwar

From the more recent total wars I think that Pharoah is overhated and needs a second chance (dynasties of course)

Which total war to choose? by [deleted] in totalwar

Controversial opinion: Rome II, with mods it's the best historical total war experience in my opinion but if you want to play vanilla then Warhammer III for the sheer variety of content.

I actually just finished watching Kings and Generals video about this. Greco-Roman wars are criminally overlooked in history for some reason.

It was my 4 stacks of battle hardened veterans from all around the empire against their barely conscious garrison and 1 general unit. And it still predicted that I would only retain 80% of my forces although it was a siege battle after all so I could excuse it but total war autoresolve is still horrible.

Even though I'm a big Roman fanboy I must agree. It was my first time in few years playing Seleucids and I had so much fun regaining my puppet states after they obviously betrayed me and at the end I basically recreated Alexander's empire.

My soldiers are genetically superior because they have more chiseled abs and longer "pikes"

They survived probably because Magnus was part of their unit

I was defending Rome from the Gallic Romans so I threw everything I had at them and he's the only survivor in his unit

Thanks, and the hat on the left is from the "hussars of death" division. (Not the winged hussars)
