If so, this sequel only pushes the madness further.
For a start, simply duffing up your enemies to dominate the map is no longer enough.
Whats more, you gotta move quickly.
Each little tweak to the formula goes to make the campaign more dynamic.
Yet whereTotal War: Warhammer IIgets really exciting is in the new playable factions you get to control.
If you like to hit hard and fast, theyre an excellent choice.
For most of us, though, the real delights will be the Lizardmen and Skaven.
And thats whereTotal War: Warhammer IIwins big.
On the one hand, you have this hideously absorbing, in-depth strategy game.
While terrain, range and formations matter, the madness is infectious.
Its going to be difficult going back to historicalTotal Warafter this.
