While Napoleon is a game with a much narrower focus than Empire and as a less sweeping scale, it is undeniably superior. It is bittersweet to see that though the myriad annoyances and disappointments that players had with Empire have been addressed it's been done in a second (albeit cheaper) game, rather than just patches.
However taken on its own merits, without the baggage of its predecessor, Napoleon: Total War is a fantastic game that definitely deserves to be the shelf of every armchair general out there.

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. "
