{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/3953001/33dba4ccba8b50a326dae249c6c8d0f8fa473906.png Greetings commanders, We've pushed out a small update to Total War: NAPOLEON which addresses crashes with 12th gen Intel CPUs. This update also removes integrated chat from the game. Read on for full details: Due to difficulties supporting and moderating dated chat systems in the current online environment, we’ve taken steps to remove the integrated chat from Total War: Napoleon and other legacy titles in our catalogue. We are, however, continuing to investigate ways to properly implement and support chat in our future pro

Let's take a look at some Napoleon: Total War mods. While Empire: Total War is remembered quite fondly, Napoleon: Total War is generally considered the superior version: What it lost in terms of scale - shedding the global map to instead focus on the Euro-centric Napoleonic Wars - it made up for with an improved UI, better technical foundations, and generally fixed most of what was broken in Empire. Napoleon's relative popularity over its older sibling means the mod scene is a bit more robust and active, with plenty of overhauls and smaller mods available to spruce up your game. One thing to n

The strategic armyman management of Total War is being flattened into digital cardboard with Total War: Elysium, a collectable card game made by Creative Assembly. The series overlords call this “a multiplayer strategy game based on Total War background,” a background which is… history? That’s just history isn’t it? Unless Napoleon’s next match after Sun Ren there is against Thorgrim Grudgebearer, mind. I’d watch that face-off. Elysium will will debut in China as part of a partnership with megapublishers NetEase, then Creative Assembly say they want

According to an ancient Sussex proverb, there are as many factions in the 20-year-old Total War series as there are sand grains on a beach, as there are angels dancing upon the head of a pin, as there are grenadiers in the armies of his Imperial Majesty Napoleon I, Emperor of the French, King of Italy, Protector of the Confederation of the Rhine, Co-Prince of Andorra. This is providing, of course, the answer in each case is between 100 and 200, depending on whether you include the DLC and think Sicily is a real country. From stinky hill tribes through trim Teutonic phalanxes to bawling rivers

Total War: THREE KINGDOMS is Now Available for Pre-Purchase on Steam! Three heroes, sworn to brotherhood in the face of tyranny, rally support for the trials ahead. Scenting opportunity, warlords from China’s great families follow suit, forming a fragile coalition in a bid to challenge Dong Zhuo’s remorseless rule. Will they triumph against the tyrant, or will personal ambition shatter their already crumbling alliance and drive them to supremacy? https://steamcdn-a.akamaihd.net/steamcommunity/public/images/clans/31196189/da13104d2feedfcde64c4152fdda43c2203dbc28.jpg

‘Definitive Editions’ of Total War: Empire, Total War: Medieval II, and Total War: Napoleon include all their expansions and DLC and bits, and folks who already own the base games on Steam have been upgraded to their fancy new versions for free. That’s a tidy little gift from developers Creative Assembly, and gets a total phwoar from me. Despite what the name might suggest, the games aren’t revamped or modernised or nowt, they’re just everything all in one package – but that’s not me grumbling. Like I said, a total phwoar, eh? A total phwoar, right?

At its best, the Total War series casts a spell over you. Your empire rises from nothing, surrounded by enemies who are poised to trample it into the dust. Each decision on the strategic level is a gamble on the immediate future, where “one more turn” isn’t just a stepping-stone to a new upgrade, but a perilous step onto thin ice. Each time you take to the battlefield is another do-or-die moment, a possible Hastings or Austerlitz that can open the road to conquest or plunge you into a desperate fight for survival. But the Total War series has also been defined by massive, abr
