Welcome to /r/TotalWar!Ī subreddit for all of those who love the Total War series. These guys are lethal in so many ways that you’ll struggle to decide which units to produce.Ĭannons, English warriors, and early access to muskets (if you develop gunpowder before others) will help you on your quest to conquer the Old World. I mean really, if you want to fight the papal forces and endure a couple of crusades as you set yourself on a quest for total European domination, you’re going to want to pick the English. I was pleasantly surprised to see that online, many people share the opinion of England being the best faction if you’re going for a full military conquest. And it’s also safe to say that I’m not just saying this because of nostalgia, either. It’s safe to say that it’s still my favorite one. If you don’t mind killing a catholic or three, then you’ll certainly enjoy using the HRE.Įngland was the first faction that I ever picked in this game when I first set myself on a quest to finish the campaign. Which means you’ll be fighting a crusade almost as soon as the game starts (depending on how expansionist you decide to play). Not only that, but you’ll also have to deal with most of your enemies being Catholic. There’s a simple reason: the Pope despises you from the beginning. So then wat’s the issue with the HRE, and why isn’t it at the top of my list, you ask? I’d even go as far as to say that an HRE playthrough is the best one for the sheer fact that every single time feels different. You’ll also start in the middle of the damn map, which means that you get to choose where you want to expand towards. You’ll be starting off the campaign with a grand 6 territories, giving you a huge chunk of Europe to deal with, and to truly rebuild the Roman Empire of old (even with their historical differences – I know). I mean, if you’re really looking for the most well-rounded faction in terms of economy, territories, units, and power, I think there’s no better faction to choose than the Holy Roman Empire. You can pick up a new faction and still make it a useful one, without caring too much about their buffs or disadvantages, for the sheer fact that these factions didn’t have as many differences as they do in the newer games (particularly post Empire).īut let’s look into some of the differences, or at least some of the unique features that they all offer. There’s been enough time for you to master the game if you’re a veteran but, if you’re new to Medieval II, you’re going to love what you’re about to read.įriendly Disclaimer For Newer Players: Factions here don’t have the same level of diversity that they do in newer games. So let’s list out and rank all the Medieval II: Total War factions, to help you get a good grasp of what they offer and where to start a new campaign. I do hope our wait doesn’t become a case of Half-Life 3… I trust CA to never let us down like that.īut if we’re going back to play this classic then you may want some faction ideas for your next playthrough. And kept us eagerly awaiting the inevitable release of Medieval III, which quite frankly, is long overdue. This game marked a “before and after” era on the Total War games, which has shaped them to become what they are today. I’m sure that I’m not just saying this because of a weird case of nostalgia, either. I will always stand by what I’ve always said: Medieval II is still the best Total War game ever made.
