This is the game that fully brought me into the total war franchise. Since then, I have played hundereds of hours of this game and always enjoy it. Even after playing many other total war games, this is still my favoite one.

The diplomatie and spying systems are incredible and very ingaging, the battles are of epic proportion, the emphisis has been put on the leaders and characters to make them unique (plus the duels are awsom), the music is awsome and immersive, the map is huge and beautiful...

One thing I like very much is the atention to detail (soldiers planting the flags before fighting or realesing flying lanterns in night battles for example).

So far, I have played Total war thrones of Britania, Rome 2, Napoleon and athila and Three kingdoms is my favorit by far. I'm planning on playing Warhammer 3 and maybe two after I've played that one for a bit. We'll see if it stays as my top 1 after these two, but it would be a high bar to reach.
