Total War Saga: TROY Standard Edition Europe Steam CD Key
Total War Saga: Troy is the second, after Thrones of Britannia, spin-off of the Total War series, developed by Creative Assembly studio. The source of inspiration for this strategy game was primarily the epic Iliad by Homer.
Story Background
The action of Total War Saga: Troy was set in the time of the half-legendary conflict known as the Trojan War, which sparked off the kidnapping of Helena, the Queen of Sparta, by the Trojan prince Paris. This was the beginning of a battle in which, under the walls of Troy, the defending armies clashed with the Greek army, and the heroes fought for eternal glory. Players can take one side and try to lead it to victory..
Gameplay Mechanics
As was the case with the previous games of Creative Assembly studio, the gameplay in Total War Saga: Troy takes place on two levels. The first is the strategic map, where we make subsequent moves in turn-based mode. It is here that we manage our empire on a macro scale, taking care of the economy of our regions (based on raw materials such as food, wood, stone, bronze and gold) and trading with allies, establishing more or less friendly diplomatic relations with other parties, and finally conquering new ones territories. The second is the real-time battles on land and sea, during which we take direct control over our troops. During the former, we have to rely primarily on infantry, and the differences between its types are now more palpable than ever. Besides, the combat effectiveness of our troops is also influenced by the ground; for example, mud can significantly slow down heavily armored soldiers, while lightly armed warriors do not have much trouble crossing marshy terrain, while tall grass protects units specialized in stealth.
The creators made sure that the most realistic assumptions were hidden behind the mythical "envelope". In the game, there are units referring to myths, which, however, are not monsters or heroes endowed with supernatural abilities; for example, in the case of the Minotaur, which we can also send into battle, we are talking about a tall, muscular warrior wearing a helmet in the shape of a bull's head, who sows fear among his opponents. We can also meet mythical agents such as Medusa. Heroes known from the epic of Homer stand at the head of eight camps that we get at our disposal during the game. On the side of the Greeks, we are talking about the brave Achilles, whose temperament can be a problem in the event of the defeat of the army he commanded. Hektor, Prince of Troy, is in turn handsomely rewarded by King Priam as soon as he succeeds in completing the task in front of his brother Paris. While playing, an important role is also played by the favor of individual deities, the faith in which brings our army various bonuses. For example, Ares, as the god of war, gives our warriors greater combat efficiency, Poseidon, the god of the seas and oceans, facilitates battles on the water, and Aphrodite contributes to the development of the economy.
