The Creative Assembly's Total War series is undoubtedly a pioneer in the strategy genre. With every new instalment the series has introduced new ideas that have since become staples of the genre, in addition to greatly improving on it's own predecessor. That why when this latest release, Napoleon: Total War, was announced for release early this year – just a year after the launch of the critically acclaimed Empire: Total War – it was met with a mix of anticipation and quiet scepticism. Could The Creative Assembly really offer such a compelling campaign and wealth of content just twelve months after their last release? As ever, the proof is in the pudding, and Napoleon: Total War is one meal that's certainly filling.
BLG writes: "I don’t think it’s a stretch to say that the Total War series features some of the best strategy games ever made. And yet, not all Total War games were created equally. None of these games are necessarily bad but some are definitely better than others. Much better. With that in mind, I decided to take a look at all the Total War games released so far and attempt to rank them all from worst to best. "

So how many of you have got into this then? I've heard mixed things, some people are saying it's no different to Empire:TW. But then, that's pretty much as good as it gets in my opinion!
