Steam Multiplayer Games Series Relies On

The condition of man is a condition of war of everyone against everyone Thomas Hobbes Total War: Attila War is all-encompassing and to give you the taste of blood you crave, the Total War series relies on a dual-engine approach.

First, theres a real-time war theater which allows you to command your troops every move on the battlefield.

It lets you deploy your soldiers, define your engagement strategy, groupings, pace, and more.

Different games in the Total War franchise take you from before the birth of Christ to the end of the Napoleonic period and all over the globe.

MacGamer HQs head-honcho Ric is a fan of the franchises take on feudal japan, Total War: Shogun 2, but Im definitely fond of the most recent release, Total War: Attila.

Attila takes you to the end of the western Roman empire and puts you in control of one of the Mediterranean or Germanic tribes that carved up former Roman territory, and their enemys hides in the process.

The game features a skirmish mode, historical battles mode (which lets you relive some epic battlefield confrontations of the period) and a campaign mode.

Campaign mode features a dynasty interface that allows you to play the court game of intrigue if youre the type that likes your war in intimate settings.

You can purchase additional campaigns and culture packs if your favorite war-mongering pack of blood-thirsty maniacs isnt in the base game.

Humble Bundle Wargame: Red Dragon The Wargame series, from Eugen Systems, is a real-time strategy (RTS) wargame that gives you control of Cold War Era militaries across the globe.

The campaign modes have grown with each release and the multiplayer modes are worth hundreds of hours of replay value.

A unique aspect of the game is the satellite camera mode which, on its own, is little more than a cool video effect but, in reality, demonstrates the scale of the games battlefields.

Wargame: European Escalation, gives the player the chance to control one of the Cold War militaries in Thatcher-era Europe.

The games sequel, Wargame: Airland Battle, takes you right back to the battlefield in a conflict between NATO and Warsaw Pact forces.

But if you had to buy just one, the series latest, Wargame: Red Dragon, brings you near the end of the Cold War and adds a variety of the Asian communist states, expanding the theater of war to a truly global scale.

The two most powerful warriors are patience and time Leo Tolstoy Company of Heroes 2 Another Mac Gamer HQ favorite, Company of Heroes 2 is the sequel to the original Company of Heroes, released over a decade ago.
