Whilst the game has some downside, it's pretty great once you get used to it. Use forts to store troops in, and use ambush stance to attack invading armies. The court system, dieties, and instant construction are nice. As far as total war goes, I would say this title is around an 8/10. A pretty great game and not as bad as some peeps say.
After 88 turns and 29 hours I finished my first campaign as Ramesses, achieving ultimate victory, on normal difficulty. Here are some of my thoughts. -although happiness and influence (control) are still a thing, during all this time even conquering a region a turn and looting I never had a single rebellion. This is refreshing compared to other total war games where you constantly and endlessly play wackamole with rebels spawning full stack armies next to your cities. -lack of naval battles doesn't hurt me as I never played them anyway -lack of agents doesn't either; micromanaging them was a pain in the ass. Here agents were replaced by court intrigue, outposts and a little button that allows you to spy on chosen city for $$ without the need to physically guide your spy there -the theme, music, graphics are all top notch and got me interested in egypt -civil war and religion mechanics are well done -some review mentioned playing a wackamole with sea people. sea people here are like huns in attilla or danish invaders in thrones of brittannia. they, along with desert tribes, keep coming pretty much whole game long. but they don't spawn next to your cities out of nowhere, they come in waves from the edge of the map and you are even warned about roughly what kind of armies are in current wave. you have time to prepare. -autoresolve is competent, it rarely gets whole units on my side destroyed, so I didn't feel pressured to play battles manually All in all, a cool total war campaign that doesn't waste your time. Haven't play the dynasties expansion yet, this review is only for the base game, which is fine as it is. edit: I forgot to mention an important thing. Advanced infantry units have "stances" now. Stances are formations beyond just changing the shape or loose/tight, they give stat bonuses and allow to do unique things on the battlefield. For example the pull back stance allows your infantry units to move while still facing their current direction. In other words, if they are engaged in combat with enemy unit, and you tell them to move back, they will not turn their backs to the enemy anymore! It's a super useful ability that is missing in most total war titles.
Quite liked playing as Ramses in Sinai, been having a good bit of fun, the fact the seasons affect gameplay is also a nice touch, as it means that one must track them to take advantage of them during campaigns. The only thing that annoys me is the fact the units are so small even on max size, like what am I supposed to do with a unit of 75-90 guys that's supposed to represent a whole battalion? you literally need pairs of them to hold even a single narrow street for any real time, it's nuts. Other than that, it's lots of fun, the fact cavalry aren't as big of a factor is probably the most interesting thing (since chariots are kinda ineffective at doing much more than running down enemy infantry as they flee)
At first the negative reviews of this game put me of trying it. I have played all ToW and and still think Empire is the best but that isw for another review. I had so many restarts of Pharaoh, trying to work it out, how to build and how to stop rebellions and build armies and reources. Yes the units are limited, yes the game is challenging but I am so glad that I finally ignored the negative reviews and tried. This is a great and challenging game.
