Which campaign should I play first and with what faction?

who are we to decide what is the most fun? just pick a random one, I thought all of them were ok except the brittania one, it is deadly boring.

What kind of computer and OS? I am waiting for my new system and am concerned about the compatibility of Kindoms with the 64-bit version of VISTA. Anyone heard if they are compatible?

**eggthief** · June 13, 2008, 11:43 AM

its compatible with the 32-bit if that helps.

Yeah, I am hoping I won't have to wait for Empires to play Total War again. My old computer decided it did not have the will to live or I would have used it as dedicated total war platform...

warning about vista:
DO NOT i repeat DO NOT install the game into the program files
the games hard coded security systems wont let you change the files
i installed it into a separate folder in my documents called "my games"

mine has always been in program files without any problems, if I want to change a file I'll just drag it to the destkop, change it, save it and then I put it back.

The computer I'm typing from currently has decided to be an asshat and no longer run any of the Total War games, so I'm getting a new PC within a few weeks or so. I'm thinking of getting the RTW and MIITW Gold editions from Best Buy, just to make sure that uninstalling on this old box won't go awry.

And now for the completely-on-topic part. All four of the expansion campaigns have their pros and cons. I think that they're all about equally good, so, I suggest you try a campaign in all four, just to get a feel of it, before you make your decision.

you can also probably install them one-by-one, if your are that short on space, to see which one(s) is(are) the most(s) entertaining(s)
