Total War is the name of a strategy game series developed by The Creative Assembly. Its games combine turn-based strategy and resource management on a Risk-like map, with real-time tactical control of battles.
As of 2004, there are three games in the Total War series. The first two have established an apparent pattern: both have an expansion pack with 'Invasion' in the title, and a compilation of the original game and expansion.
- Shogun: Total War (2000, Electronic Arts) is set in feudal Japan. The expansion pack is called Mongol Invasion, released with the original in the Warlord Edition.
- Medieval: Total War (2002, Activision) is set in medieval Europe. The expansion pack is Viking Invasion, and the combined edition is called the Battle Collection.
- Rome: Total War (2004, Activision) is set in the Roman Republic era of Europe. The expansion, Barbarian Invasion, is not yet available.
