Total War: Kingdoms Review

December 21st, 2007 by Troy Goodfellow · 3 Comments · Creative Assembly, Gameshark, Medieval, Review

My review of Medieval II: Total War – Kingdoms is up at Gameshark.

I loved this expansion. As good as Medieval II is, the Kingdoms pack adds more than enough variety, flavor and cleverness to keep you hooked for a while. There is some really nice stuff going on here, and adding the SDK means that mod makers will soon be doing some really neat things, too.

This will probably be my last update before the holiday, so have a merry Christmas. May you negotiate an acceptable resolution to all the holiday stress.

    Merry Christmas to you too. I’ve been having tons of fun with Kingdoms too.

    Although I stalled on Britannia, having begun what feels like a cakewalk as the Irish. This break will probably encourage me to go back for more.

    I’m tired of hearing how cool this game is! I have M:TW and Viking Invasion, so why oh why do I need this re-make? Is it that much better? Goddam, though: Unicorm McGriddle wrote a huge AAR on Qt3 and it really got me thinking. But really; is it *that* good?

    Last update, eh? Well then, have a very Merry Christmas! And watch out for fruitcake, in the right hands it can be a deadly tool of destruction!
