The expansion pack to the Creative Assemblydeveloped strategy title, Medieval: Total War, Medieval: Total War Viking Invasion casts players back to the Dark Ages; the year 793AD, and a brutal Viking attack on a monastery in Northumbria in which the invading marauders make off with a precious artifact. Centered in and around the British Isles, the new campaign offers over 50 territories and eight playable factions Vikings, Irish, Northumbrians, Welsh, Picts, Mercians, Scots, and Saxons. Renowned for their fearsome raids and savage coastal attacks, the Vikings possess ships with superior speed, range, and weaponry. Castle sieges have also been updated, offering players the ability to develop upgrades such as boiling oil, burning projectiles, and the 'Organ Gun' (the latter available only in the original three campaigns) with which to defend strongholds.

Prior to each engagement, players are presented with an allnew deployment screen through which they can explore the enemy ranks and organize their own army; unit lineups can be determined, and commanders and reinforcements inspected. Along with new units specific to the game's many factions, the title also boasts a new technology tree based upon the era, foregoing the advancements made in later years. In addition to the new Viking campaign, the original three campaigns have received minor enhancements, while also offering three new factions, the Aragonese, Hungarian, and Sicilians for players to command.. ~ All Game Guide

    The good and Bad about viking invasion/total war

    By Yahoo! Shopping User  Sep 8, 2003

    Bad first:This game needed a better written guide as some of the rules such as who could start crusades (not all christians) and needed more clarity on when unit types were available.The game would crash rarely on my computer, but sometimes when I we...nt to save the game it crashed. This was a very inoppurtune time to crash.The computer AI needs upgraded in campaign settings. If I can terrorize Germany with Poland right off the bat, there is something off. The computer AI doesn't recogize easily how well they could defeat an army if they grouped themselves correctly.The Good:The battle commands are wonderful. Watching the battles is even fun. The historic battles are good to play.Maybe there were some patches I could have found online for the crashes.The commands in running the campaigns are good.Overall this game is a 4. Read more Less
