Rome: Total War

Quite a good strategy for 2005. The game has many factions, city development options and historical events. A feature of the game is a global battle on the map, with good optimization. The game does not lag with more than 2000 warrior models at once. There is also diplomacy, trade and espionage, which completely diversifies the game. A complete description of units, factions and politicians who have characteristics that also affect the battle. The only negative is the choice of a long campaign, since you need a large number of captured settlements and checking them every turn becomes longer and more boring. But as a counterbalance to this, you can choose a short campaign, which is quite enough for an interesting game. Result: 10/10

perhaps the best game in the series (only medieval 2 can compete with it for this place), the graphics for the 2005 strategy are ideal, the audio accompaniment is especially good, in the end, when hundreds of your legionnaires, hastati, principles, triarii and other troops march to Jeff Van Dyke, this is unforgettable sensation.
