Apart from the Danes and the Charlemagne's own faction, each has a fairly uninspiring roster of troop types consisting of lightly-armoured levies interspersed with one or two heavy troops gained in late-game.Ĭreative Assembly appears to have gone all narrative on its fans, though. Arrayed in various places around the map are the Avars, Saxons, Danes, the Kingdom of Cordoba, the Kingdom of Asturias and of course the Kingdom of Charlemagne. Each faction comes with its own unique buffs and debuffs, tailored to their historical tendencies.ĭisplacing the Romans are the Lombards, a Germanic tribe who have settled in upper Italy. The world has changed when the game starts, with a number of new factions to choose from in order to reflect that. Expanding the setting of Total War: Attila into the medieval period, Age of Charlemagne builds upon the work of the previous DLC package for the game: The Last Roman.Īge of Charlemagne delivers a ‘redesigned’ setting in the way that it chops off the east and south portions of the original world map and focuses on northern, central and western europe. While Creative Assembly worked on the main course offering to its ever-hungry fans: Total War: Warhammer, a separate team in the company spun off to create an aperitif to in the form of the new Age of Charlemagne DLC.
