Age of Charlemagne is an expansion for Total War: Attila, set in the Middle Ages on a sprawling new campaign map of Europe.
A diverse array of factions to try, that drag the Total War series back into the Medieval era.
It's a step forward for the series and a step toward Total War: Medieval III. I hope the improvements here will inform that game, should it be on the drawing board. These gloriously attractive strategic sandboxes may be about the journey rather than the destination, but without a clear destination in sight, and without a shared objective to tie their factions together, they can become unwieldy. As a template for Total Warhammer, Charlemagne seems like a snug fit.
