Fight a battle in Russia and you get a few lightly rolling hills, a few farm fields, a couple scattered trees, and a few buildings in a village and one of them has an onion dome. Fight a battle in India and you get a few gently rolling hills, a few farm fields, a couple scattered palm trees, and a few buildings in a village(which look an awful lot like the buildings in the south of France). Fight in south of France and you get a few gently rolling hills, a few farm fields, a couple scattered trees, and a few buildings in a village. The terrain features in just about every map look just like about every other map you fought on. Land battles were a uniniteresting fight in Dullsville. Most of the time they were a liability and firing into the back of their own troops. I finally gave up on even trying to figure out how to use them effectively. I'm not talking about little nuisance bugs I'm talking game crashing, saved game recking, reinstall the whole fricken thing, shove your fist through the monitor in frustration bugs.
When this game was released it was the most bug ridden game that I have played in the last 20 years. This was the first game to introduce a RTS element to the navel engagements. It was so bad that I have refused to buy STW2, which I have heard is by far a much better game. Rome: TW was in my mind the best game in the series and after that MTW2 was a little bit of let down and then came Empire: TW which has to be the very worst game in this series thus far. It got so bad, that I would plan my major computer purchases to coincide with the release date of Total War title. As each subsequent title was released, I would drop everything and play it non stop for months on end.
When I first purchased Shogun:TW(Yes, the very first one), I was instantly addicted to the hybrid turn based and RTS game.
