Empire: Total War Guide

Since bursting onto the scene the Total War series has gobbled up countless hours of free time from armchair generals. The series which began with a title focused on feudal Japan has been getting more massive and intense with each release. The latest title Empire: Total War takes all the most beautifully polished aspects of the past games and expands on them in a complex strategy game that is fought over nearly half the world. Set in the eighteenth century, the golden age of muskets and cannons, Empire: Total War is sure to be just as addictive and intense as its predecessors. Not to mention that for the first time in the history of the series we are being treated to a wonderfully detailed tactical naval combat system. With so much going on it can be easy to feel like you are aboard a sinking galley, but don't worry here at IGN Guides we have done all the painstaking digging for you.

Inside we break down all you need to know about eighteenth century warfare so that you not only understand what is going on, but so that you can start planning your own strategic assault on Europe. If that is not enough we have packed in short strategies for all of the playable empires in grand campaign mode and a detailed handling of the special campaign Road to Independence.

In this Empire: Total War strategy guide, you'll find:

  • UNITS // A breakdown of the game's myriad units complete with stat charts.
  • CAMPAIGN MAP // Tips for building infrastructure, researching, and more.
  • GRAND CAMPAIGN WALKTHROUGH // Our Empire: Total War walkthrough with strategies for conquering each campaign.
  • ROAD TO INDEPENDENCE // A walkthrough for the road to independence campaign.

So ready your musket and ramrod, fix your bayonet and charge into an in depth over view of eighteenth century military strategy.
