From GameWatcher: “Total War spin-offs are always a complicated idea. Some, like Fall of the Samurai, expand on base game mechanics with a never-visited period such as a nigh-Wild West. Others, like Thrones of Britannia, are made by self-confessed non-Total War veterans that try to do completely new ideas and end up repeating some mistakes that were fixed half a decade ago by previous instalments. And others still, like Troy, try to mix existing mechanics with new takes on the franchise for decidedly mixed results.”
