I have always been a huge fan of the Total War franchise from the older historical titles to Warhammer 2. I liked the idea of them releasing these smaller titles focused on a smaller period in history. I also love the setting for Thrones of Britannia, since its a very interesting time and it revolving around the events so close to the tv show Vikings.
-My issue is that the games campaign feels very slowly paced, some mods can help make up for that, but they are not enough. -There is very little variety in the units in each of the factions. -Another thing, is that even the models for the units almost all look the same across all factions. >All elite units have the same look between the Gaelic, English, Viking, and Welsh factions; all bearing just chainmail around them >Nearly all units models sport the same helmet design, there being no difference between Vikings and Englishmen besides their beards
The only thing I seemed to enjoy was the multiplayer this time round. The game feels more of a $20 value add-on to Attila. In my opinion I would save your money and not purchase this game. You won't miss out on anything important in skipping this one minor title. If you are really interested in getting it, wait till it's 50% off on Steam.
