Total War: Attila is a stand-alone game in the Total War saga that serves as a sequel to both Total War: Rome II and Rome: Total War's Barbarian Invasion expansion; it places the player in Late Antiquity, as the Western Roman Empire slowly dies and various Germanic tribes threaten the imperial borders, a new enemy arises from the steppes of the east, bent on destroying everything and everyone that stands in their way.The player is able to, as with the original Barbarian Invasion, take control of one of the many barbarian tribes of the time, the mighty Sassanid Empire to the east, or The Roman Empire itself, either its prosperous Eastern half (what would be known in time as the Byzantine Empire), the dying Western half, or as the mighty Hun horde, led eventually by the titular Attila the Hun.The game reintroduces the family tree note Eventually, the mechanic was also added to Rome II. and adds other features that focus on destruction and the apocalyptic nature of the time period, such as setting fire to entire cities and settlements on the battle map, ordinary people fighting side by side with your army against the invaders, diseases that will spawn more frequently and will kill both citizens and armies, and the ability to raze entire provinces, utterly destroying the city that was there. On top of all these, climate change will progressively reduce the fertility of many lands across the map.Expansion packs The Last Roman was released on 25 June 2015, and follows the exploits of the legendary Eastern Roman Empire general, Flavius Belisarius, in reconquering the ruined remains of the Western Roman Empire. It adds several new factions to play as in a mini-campaign, including the Roman Expedition that features a unique Roman horde play-style, extensive narrative-based missions, and an entirely new campaign. Said campaign also features the bubonic plague (i.e. the Plague of Justinian, manifesting as a powerful disease in-game) which historically ended Justinian I's ambitions of re-unifying the Empire. Age of Charlemagne was released on 10 December 2015, set in an entirely different time period from the base game: the dawn of the Middle Ages. It features a huge new Campaign focused primarily in Western Europe, along with special early medieval-era units such as proto-knights and huscarls, eight new playable factions, new tech and buildings, and unique features, such as War Weariness, and story-based Kingdom Events.

Darker and Edgier
 Total War: Attila (Video Game) / int_14beeefd
comment
Darker and Edgier: Not only when compared to Barbarian Invasion; this is also the darkest and most realistic of all the Total War series: The weather of the world will render many areas barren as time goes by, forcing many of the factions (or even you) to flee or face starvation. On a related note, every province now has to be self-sufficient in food, forcing players to devote buildings to food production in every province. Fire is a much more powerful and dreadful tool, as it can destroy entire cities and make them uninhabitable. The destruction of a city has an impact on the morale of the armies defending it and, for the first time, civilians are shown to either stand their ground or escape the destruction, which, if a settlement is too damaged, will happen anyway, as people won't live in a warzone. You will have to raze cities at times, given the logistical and tactical difficulty in properly maintaining them, and rebuilding the infrastructure of a province from scratch comes at a high cost in both money and manpower. Armies and navies now have integrity, that is, the general morale during the campaigns. If depleted, the army will commit mutiny and suffer attrition. Power is now better held in the middle ground; too much power and your people will hate you, too little and there will be endless civil wars. As your empire grows, you will be faced with corruption and mismanagement inside of your provinces which will sap your general income, thus making the prospect and profit of simple expansion even less desirable. note Penalties due to expansion were also present in Rome II. As the game progresses, you will have to face the Hunnic horde, and unlike previous installments, you will have to deal with the collateral damage of their expansion (population fleeing and migrating to better lands). Age of Charlemagne introduces War Weariness: The people's morale will be determined by how much you wage war, as they much prefer that their king engage in fewer wars and end them as soon as possible.

Unexpectedly Realistic Gameplay
 Total War: Attila (Video Game) / int_15264ac9
comment
Unexpectedly Realistic Gameplay: The game shows the after-effects of war and how taxing attacking cities can be. Razing or rebuilding cities can greatly affect your empire's economy and the morale of your citizens and armies. Things will not be as easy as putting things back together like game board pieces. Even further highlighted in The Age of Charlemagne with the inclusion of "War Weariness" as a game mechanic. Which makes fighting multiple wars on many fronts for a prolonged period of time a guaranteed way of harming your own people.* Uriah Gambit: As in most Total War games, sending a detrimental general on vacation in enemy territory with no backup is a great way to be rid of him. Emperor Honorius of the Western Roman Empire is a particularly popular candidate for this.

"Well Done, Son" Guy
 Total War: Attila (Video Game) / int_1779f10e
comment
"Well Done, Son" Guy: Queen Mavia of the Tanukhids fits this trope. When you play as that faction, Queen Mavia's first mission briefing states that you strike her as being "semi-competent" and that she didn't want to hand control of her army to you. If you complete all the missions, she admits on the last one that she thought you'd have died before this point. Bear in mind that the Tanukhids faction leader, the person she's presumably giving these briefings to, is her adopted son Tubbakarib.

Accent Tropes
 Total War: Attila (Video Game) / int_1ad8499c
comment
Accent Tropes: As in previous games, each faction has its own respective accents with variations occurring among units and agents. The Norse and Germanic tribes are Guttural Growlers who speak in vague, Dutch-accented English that can just pass for a "Scandinavian" or "German" accent. The Norse and Germanic champion agent basically sounds like a more aggressive Arnold Schwarzenegger. The "Eastern" factions (meaning North African, East African, Arabian, and Iranian factions) all speak with Arabian accents, despite this game taking place before the spread of Arabic as a lingua franca throughout those regions. The Huns are Guttural Growlers who speak with vaguely East Asian accents. Romans and the derivative factions speak in The Queen's Latin.

The Horde
 Total War: Attila (Video Game) / int_1bb2c500
comment
The Horde / Hordes from the East: The Huns, and to a minor extent the Great Migrators (Visigoths, Ostrogoths, Vandals and Alans). They all start without a capital city and are always on the move till they decide to conquer one and make it their own. The Huns however are the only faction that can never settle down, thus having to be always a horde. The White Huns are a group of these on the Sassanid Persian frontier.

End of an Age
 Total War: Attila (Video Game) / int_1bc2e445
comment
End of an Age: A common thematic across the different campaigns is the closing of a time to open another. The main campaign focuses on the fall of Rome and the violent closing of Classical Antiquity that gave way to the Late Antiquity. An ice age is driving the Barbarian Tribes south across Rome's borders in search of more fertile lands, while the Huns pillage and burn everything in sight. Rome is losing its advanced construction technology, its roads, its waterworks and its old Greco-Roman pagan religion, and the entire empire is reorganizing itself around the Church, sowing the seeds that will give way to the feudal system that will dominate Europe in the coming centuries. The Last Roman features the final shrine of the Roman Empire, with Belisarius, the titular last classical Roman commander. The Age of Charlemagne campaign acts as the closing chapter of Late Antiquity and with it, the start of the Middle Ages.

Welcome Back, Traitor: In African and Middle Eastern provinces, there is one mercenary unit called "Mercenary Desert Legion Defectors" ... both the Eastern and Western Roman Empires can hire these bands of deserters to fight in their army.

Crapsack World
 Total War: Attila (Video Game) / int_21d70919
comment
Crapsack World: The 4th and 5th centuries were not pleasant times to live in, and it shows in these games. The sacking of cities, the execution of POWs, and the execution of entire settlements are all acts that happen with regular occurrence. In the Eastern and Western Roman Empires, immigrants are flooding in to escape from the hordes outside the gate (the West ALWAYS has immigration), famines and food shortages occur every other winter if you fail to build enough farms (which you probably won't be able to afford to), plagues will ravage your cities if you don't build enough sanitation buildings to combat the squalor (which you absolutely won't be able to afford to), the military is beleaguered by barbarian hordes, and civil wars are inevitable. This is most visible during battles that take place in Roman cities: there are ruins around the cities, amphitheaters and theaters are abandoned (the former taken over by squatters, the latter overgrown with grass and shrubs), and the residential buildings appear dilapidated. If you are defending a Roman city with only the local garrison, then God help you; the best you can hope for is a Pyrrhic Victory in which half your army dies defending a choke-point, but the more likely outcome is a Last Stand in which the barbarians burn neighborhoods to the ground, kill any civilians unable to hide in the buildings, slaughter the people, loots their corpses, and move on. The Migration Factions are forced to find new lands fast, because if they don't, they will be exterminated by the cooling climate and merciless Huns. Whether player controlled or AI controlled, a Migration Horde that doesn't succeed in finding new lands usually ends up getting wiped out in a nasty defeat. The Huns are having the time of their lives. They're stronger than any of the migrating hordes and far stronger than the splinters of Rome, and can freely rampage across Europe, leaving fire and death in their wake. But Huns can't build a settled kingdom; they can only destroy.

Anachronism Stew: The various Germanic (and Nordic) factions have access to pikemen whose weapons resemble Macedonian sarissae and can form pike phalanxes. While there is an account of Germanic tribes using pikes, it comes from the timeframe of 'Rome II', which was a few hundred years prior to the timeframe of this game.

Proud Merchant Race: The Aksumites' kingdom is built on their dominance of the silk and spice routes, and their faction bonuses relate to commerce and to hiring mercenaries. The Eastern Romans fall into this due to the nature of their government. Unlike the West, they have an efficient and powerful monarchy that provides both effective tariff collection and a measure of stability in these dark times, which in turn provides incentives for commercial growth. The Empire even generates interest on its treasury.

Villainous Incest: Downplayed. While incest never occurs in-game, the results of it are represented by character traits note In the Family, Unfortunate Parentage, Thin-Skulled. Being inbred makes a general or agent less effective overall.

comment
The Germanic and Norse Hero agent straddles the line between this and Testosterone Poisoning in his hyper-masculinity. The fact that they're one man armies who can reliably inflict massive losses on enemy warbands and are very good at killing enemy generals (including their bodyguards) doesn't help matters. This makes a great deal of sense though when you take into account the enormous importance of heroism (in the original meaning of the word, badass, rather than someone who does moral things) to the Germanic and Norse cultures. They've also got chest-length beards and Barbarian Longhair.

Going Native: The Eastern Roman Empire gradually undergoes this as differences emerge from its Western counterpart, foreshadowing its Byzantine fate. By The Last Roman, it's gotten to the point wherein unit upgrades for Belisarius' expedition shift from Latin to Greek, such as with Skutatoi infantry. An in-game mechanic in which factions can convert religions if their territory contains a 35% following of that faith. Most often seen when Germanic-Pagan factions invade Roman Lands, settle in them, then convert to Christianity.

comment
Magikarp Power: The Christian religions. At first glance, it seems nigh insane to stick with the religion, considering the major upkeep costs of their religious buildings, but these costs can be dealt with as your faction's economy improves, and their lack of a food cost will pay off later as the world's climate worsens and would otherwise highly restrict you from many building combinations without the food for them. Their major religious buildings and Sees also have a lot of religious osmosis bonuses, making the Christian religions uniquely capable of converting and actually holding onto a lot of conquered territory later in the game while the other factions note at least, factions which are landlocked and/or have no access to camel farms are stuck playing survival strategy as is usual for Attila. Granted, all of these benefits will still later compete with the significant -10 morale penalty that will be inflicted on your troops while they're fighting the Huns...

 Total War: Attila (Video Game) / int_4127eb1
comment
Shut Up, Hannibal!: When you are playing as the Lakhmids, there is one event where the King of the Sassanid Empire insults your people. One of the options is to swallow your pride; the other is to tell him exactly where he can shove his superiority complex. From there, you get two more options; apologize or double down. This trope is deconstructed in that picking it and doubling down ends in the Sassanid King drunkenly trying to attack you, getting killed by your bodyguards, and the Sassanid Empire declaring war on you. Reconstructed if you have the military strength to win that war and dismantle your former oppressors.

Game Mod: Attila, like many other Total War titles, has seen its fair share of mods, ranging from cosmetic changes to complete overhauls. Among the most notable is Medieval Kingdoms 1212 AD, which turns the game into an enhanced version of Medieval II: Total War combined with elements from the Age of Charlemagne DLC. The Rome Era series ambitiously covers nearly a thousand years of history, from the Second Punic War up to the collapse of the Carolingian Renaissance.

Justified, as in this time period the Western Roman Empire was falling apart and its armies were a shadow of their former self. Not to mention the Sassanids were giving the ERE a hard time as well.

Happily Adopted: In the game, you are allowed to adopt characters as your sons. In The Last Roman Campaign, Belisarius's wife sends him an event at one point, asking him to adopt a boy named Theodosius. Accepting grants you a son with TWO special combat abilities. Ultimately a subversion though, as Theodosius ends up sleeping with your wife.

Technology Marches On: In-Universe, the new unit tier mechanic works likes this. As you advance in the military tech tree, many of your units will be able to be replaced with superior counterparts of themselves. The catch is that you will need to have the minimal infrastructure to support your army, or you will be left with a dead end in your game.

Age of Charlemagne fast-forwards towards the reign of the titular Frankish king. Vikings, Muslim invaders, and other threats best the nascent Carolingian domain from all sides, while the descendants of the barbarians who conquered Rome are evolving into the feudal realms of Medieval Christendom.

Artistic License – History
 Total War: Attila (Video Game) / int_56515a39
comment
Artistic License – History: Par the course for a Total War title, it's extremely likely for events to progress in a way during the campaign that completely derails all over established history. An example to illustrate this: it is very likely for Attila the Hun to die in 445 AD. In Germano-Sarmatia. Fighting Geatish Vikings. During the Alpha, Western Roman Empire is Catholic while Eastern Roman Empire is Orthodox. However, the split occurred in the 11th century. This error was corrected in the release version, as both Roman factions' religions are renamed to Latin and Greek Christians respectively.note  Although the formal split happened many years afterwards, there were already various differences in the church in the West as compared with its Eastern counterpart. It's dreadfully common to come across one or two Germanic tribes in western Europe who have decided to convert to Tengriism. This can be decades before Attila comes along to get the Huns' shit together also.note This is actually more of a gameplay mechanic than anything else though, as the AI tends to convert religions as soon as that religion becomes the majority. The Germanic tribes in this case merely had the ill-luck of taking over areas with massive proportions of Tengriists. Attila tends to become the Hunnic faction leader around 425 AD or so, when in history he actually ruled the Huns from 434 AD till his death in 453 AD. He's also scripted to die of natural causes in 445 AD. 8 years before his historical death in 453 AD. Bleda's the one who died in 445 AD, which allowed Attila to gain control of his half of the horde. If anything, after 445 AD he should be even more dangerous. The various Germanic (and Nordic) factions all have access to pikemen whose weapons resemble Macedonian sarissae. While there is an account of Germanic tribes using pikes, it comes from the time-frame of 'Rome II'. Sclavenians practicing Turkic Shamanism. This was rectified with the Slavic Nations Culture Pack, where they now practice Slavic Paganism. At game launch, the Alans were considered a Germanic people and got several Germanic units; in real life, they were an Iranian ethnic group, not Germanic. This was corrected by free DLC; now the Alans have their own identity and unit roster. The Nomadic factions tend to be very East-Asian like, something that, while plausible and relatively grounded in history, is somewhat exaggerated if you take into account that the hordes were composed of various tribes from all the over the Eurasian steppe, which means that some of them should have European or Central Asian features. This is most noticeable for the Huns themselves, who were something akin to a confederation of Turkic and Mongol tribes. Ironically, it's only Attila himself who looks at all Turkic or Mongolic.note For one thing, he's Central Asian ruddy, not East Asian yellow. He's also got a more square face than the Huns, who tend to have ovals. His beard and hair-style is also a lot closer to what you'd expect from Central Asian tribesmen than whatever those things the rest of the Huns have on their faces. The musical theme for the Huns is based on Mongolian throat-singing. This is reasonable as we have absolutely no idea what real Hunnic music sounded like, but it's still music from a different culture over a thousand years later. Overall, the Huns are characterized as proto-Mongols, which fits a historical conception that traced their origins back to the Xiongnu, a Mongolic people from which a branch (the northern Xiongnu) was expelled by the Han dynasty into the western steppes; this view however is now viewed as incomplete since there is a gap of around three hundred years between the expulsion of the Xiongnu and the arrival of the Huns, in turn meaning that the Huns couldn't have gone through the Eurasian steppe without contact and influence from other nomadic peoples. The Visigothic faction religion is Germanic Paganism. Historically, they would've been Arian Christians by this point. The High King of Ireland at the time of the game was Nath Í mac Fiachrach, but the faction leader for the Ebdanians is a fictional character called Voseniosnote There was a British king named Vosenios (or Vodenos), but he ruled from the end of the 1st century BC to around the year 15 AD, and he ruled the Cantiaci in what is now Kent, not anywhere in Ireland. Also, Ireland's religious status at the start of the game is 100% Celtic Pagan, but the 5th century chronicler Prosper of Aquitaine recorded that there were Christian communities in Ireland at the time. Finally, Ebdanians isn't their name: it's the Eblani or Eblanii, with Ebdanians coming from Ebdani, which is believed to have been a simple transcription error in several copies of Ptolemy's Geography. They also weren't anywhere near the only tribe in Ireland, nor were they necessarily the most important. As well, the Ebdanians have access to galloglasses, who wouldn't exist until the 13th century AD. The royal families of every faction has the ability to choose the heir AND to adopt generals into the family, and when the faction leader dies, the entire realm passes to the new Faction Leader. In real life, several of the factions depicted (such as the Franks) had gavelkind inheritance (the realm and its wealth are divided among the ruler's surviving sons). The exclusion of different inheritance restrictions is likely an Anti-Frustration Features as losing 3/4 of your kingdom upon your ruler's death could very easily ruin the game. The Bretons and Basques in The Last Roman expansion are Germanic(!). When playing as the Sassanid Empire, the introduction video mentions that Emperor Valerian was killed by having molten gold poured down his throat. While this was indeed one account of how he died, it was only one of many accounts. The only thing certain was that he died as a Sassanid captive. Besides the molten gold account, other accounts mentioned that he could have been flayed alive or even lived in relatively good conditions.

The Teetotaler: There is a line of traits for characters based around this. The first, "Sober" clearly has them be one, improving Authority and Cunning by one. "Abstemious" makes them practice abstinence in pretty much everything and give them two to Cunning and one to Zeal. "Painfully Teetotal" gives plus two to Zeal...and a penalty of one to Authority, because they're apparently a bit of an annoying Soapbox Sadie about their teetotalism.

The Berserker
 Total War: Attila (Video Game) / int_5c300c3b
comment
The Berserker: Any unit with the Berserk trait - Norse, Vandal and Celtic varieties exist in Exactly What It Says on the Tin examples, though there are other units with the trait and not the exact name. They fight with axes, shields and are Walking Shirtless Scenes, aside from the Vandals who use swords and actually are wearing shirts. Those with the Frenzy and Killing Spree abilities may also qualify, if to a lesser extent, though the Frenzy ability becomes downright common in the later tiers of Norse units. Contrary to most expectations, the best Berserkers come not from any Norse faction, but the Germanic Langobards' actually-armored Godansmen and Godan's Chosen. In The Last Roman, only the Vandals contain playable ones - though the Langobards exist as an enemy faction and still have their signature melee units with the Berserk trait. In the Age of Charlemagne, only the Danes keep the berserkers - this time with swords, armor, and wearing a wolf hide over their helmets. Additionally, there is a berserker line of traits that barbarian generals can earn. It starts with "Shieldbiter", then "Axe-Friend", and ends with, of course, "Berserker"...

Nintendo Hard: There's a reason why "survival strategy" is highly emphasized when playing as the Western Roman Empire. It's the first faction in the series to get the difficulty rating of legendary. Playing as the Eastern Roman Empire is relatively easier compared to its Western counterpart, given its better stability, technology and economy. By relatively, it means defending against both the Sassanid Empire to the east and keeping the various barbarian factions from reaching Constantinople.

By The Battle of Ravenna, one of the game's playable Historical Battles, it is already in the Long Night as you find yourself commanding a Western Roman Army with the goal of defeating an Ostrogothic force led by Odoacer. Losing the battle (as the Romans did in real life) will mark an end to the Western Roman Empire, and winning the battle is implied to reforge Rome in fire and steel cause it to re-enter the Expansion Phase.

Javelin Thrower
 Total War: Attila (Video Game) / int_7270820d
comment
Javelin Thrower: Javelinmen are the great equalizer in Total War: Attila - only the heaviest units in the game can hope to survive the most basic javelin skirmisher infantry unit tossing all of their ammunition into a shield-uncovered side, and even they will probably lose at least third of their men in short order. While they have the shortest range out of ranged weaponry and the least amount of possible volleys, their damage is significant and their fire-rate nearly as good. Javelins may be used by melee infantry and cavalry as well as skirmisher cavalry, though dedicated skirmisher infantry units carry the most ammunition. Many Roman melee infantry, however, actually hurl plumbata darts instead of true javelins.

Easy Logistics: Played with. Your armies will replenish over time in friendly territory, but the units will regain strength faster if they are garrisoned in a settlement and replenish even faster if said settlement can train that unit. On the other hand, razed provinces can be deathly grounds for armies, regular and horde alike, and is best avoided. Unlike in Rome II, Food is calculated at the provincial level; every province has to be self-sufficient.

Similarly, at the end of each cinematic, "They made ready for war." Act 1: "And behold a red horse, and power was given to him that sat thereon to take peace from the earth." Act 2: "And I beheld a black horse, and he that sat on him had a pair of scales in his hand..."

Vestigial Empire: The game is set during the last years of the Western Roman Empire. It starts with a massive territory and ranks number 1 on the power list. However, most of its cities suffer from terrible public order, poor hygiene, alien religion and its armies are sparsely located in remote provinces. However, it is in an alliance with the Eastern Roman Empire which rank number 2 in the power list and start with more technology than barbarian factions.

Villain Protagonist: The Hunnic factions since they do tons of pillaging, plundering and the razing of entire cities and towns or outright subjugation of other nations. Unlike other playable factions, you can't even peacefully occupy the major settlement of a province. note Mechanics-wise, AI nations are highly unlikely to submit as tributaries if they control more than one region, and the only way to wrest regions away as a Hunnic faction is to raze. This can happen with other factions if the player chooses to burn down or sack enemy provinces.

Mighty Glacier: Herculiani Seniores from the Western Romans are heavily armored and slow-moving, and can also shred most other units in melee combat (even the feared Huns), making them one of the best infantry units in the game, albeit very expensive and at the end of the tech tree. Heavy Infantry in general fit this trope well (as with other Total War games), but for a rare Cavalry example, take the Alani Heavy Cataphracts or Sarmatian Cataphract Lancers, two units from the Alans. VERY slow (they both have a measly Speed Stat of 45, compared to most cavalry units having speed stats in the range of 60-100), but well armored and able to hold their ground against even the best of the Hunnic Cavalry, as well as even heavy infantry.

Born in the Saddle
 Total War: Attila (Video Game) / int_96804de5
comment
Born in the Saddle: The Hunnic factions are the archetype, so much so that they can never adopt a settled lifestyle, instead keeping their entire civilization (or what passes for one) on the move at all times. They favor horse units and especially Horse Archers (though they do have foot soldiers available). The Alans are the finest horsemen in the world, and that includes the Huns. The broken and scattered children of Sarmatia, the Alans likewise do have foot soldiers, but they receive a special bonus to horse units, and also have some of the statistically most powerful horsemen in the game. While Cataphracts are more iconically associated with the Romans and Persians, the Alans' Sarmatian Cataphracts are superior to the original Persian model, and some are even archers as well. The patch to their unit roster emphasized this; now they have no dedicated spear infantry or foot archers at all, but a lot of cavalry choices.

Big Bad: Given that his name is in the game’s very title, and the fact that he poses the single biggest threat in the game, Attila is rather obviously this on a character standpoint. For the same latter reason, the Huns are this on a faction standpoint. Big Bad Duumvirate: Though, on the latter standpoint, there’s also the White Huns to consider. While lacking any particularly special characters, they make up for it by having what is arguably a more dangerous roster of units, with Xionite Spears and Spet Xyon Archers being standouts.

Nothing Is the Same Anymore: Even if you manage to get the Western Roman Empire back on its feet, the civic technologies actually encourages you to decentralize the state and has various trappings of conceptual feudalism. The Eastern Roman Empire meanwhile is directed such that it gradually develops its own Byzantine identity. One that while still Roman, is more evidently embracing Greek and Eastern Christian influences.

Difficult, but Awesome: Surviving as the Western Roman Empire after players brought stability to their provinces. Their armies have great morale and discipline, not to mention having an alliance with the Eastern Roman Empire. The problem is that at gamestart, the Empire has crippling income problems and faces massive internal revolts - and to be honest, it's often better to let the rebels win for a while, because that means you have fewer provinces to defend and less corruption sapping your income.

The Revolution Will Not Be Civilized: The Tanukhids and their revolt against the Eastern Roman Empire falls squarely into this. They have to sack enemy cities for food before settling down, and the first mission Queen Mavia gives you involves razing five Roman settlements. The final revolution mission even gives you the option to absorb your allies, stripping them of their independence and forcing them to convert to your religion. If they are unhappy too long, they might revolt against your rule.

Back from the Brink: One of the historical battles is the Battle of Ravenna, which ended in real life with General Odoacer deposing the last Western Roman Emperor and wiping the Empire out in 476. You play as General Orestes, and must prevent exactly this from happening. Win the battle, and you get a message implying this trope. The Kingdom of Asturias in the "Age of Charlemange" campaign. After the Visigothic and Subian Kingdoms were destroyed by Muslim invaders, a Sole Survivor Visigoth nobleman flees into the northern hills and founded the kingdom. If you play as them, you receive missions telling you to reconquer all of Spain.

Invading Refugees
 Total War: Attila (Video Game) / int_a3e3cce1
comment
Invading Refugees: Befitting the time period it's set in, it is inevitable that the factions holed up more north will become a horde faction and seek greener pastures after climate change reduces all provinces' fertility, after which they'll probably have to sack other factions' holdings as they try and stay afloat while they travel since becoming a horde removes all settled buildings (and thereby their income) while keeping their armies and the upkeep needed to supply them. It's possible for players to become a horde and only commit more aggressive violence again after they settle down again if they had enough money before and settled in an area already abandoned, but odds are pretty good that if any horde wants to settle in the most fertile southern lands in the game, they'll have to put on this hat.

Handicapped Badass: The traits for generals and governors being sickly, or losing some vital body part are rough, but enough ranks could potentially let them get past that. The "Blind" trait however, will remove five points from every stat and guarantee that the best general can only be of middling capabilities after being afflicted by it.

Alternate History
 Total War: Attila (Video Game) / int_a86069f
comment
Alternate History: If you so choose. It's quite unavoidable if you're playing some of the more obscure factions like the Jutes, as you're basically encouraged to forge a continent-spanning empire in order to win the game. You can potentially save the Roman Empire, altering the entire course of European history. It's a real challenge though. The game pretty much encourages you to make your own alternate histories, such as the Saxons conquering Britannia centuries ahead of schedule, the Franks invading the territories of Soussoins before the fall of Rome, or the Kingdom of Asturias completing The Reconquista in the 800s. The historical Battle of Ravenna. You play as the last remnants of the Western Roman army fighting against Odoacer's Germanic tribe. If you win, you have saved the Western Roman Empire from the person who historically destroyed it. It's even possible to kill Odoacer 17 years ahead of schedule.

Final Solution: One thing you can do to a captured enemy city is raze it. This completely destroys the city, leaving the entire region depopulated as presumably everyone within either dies violently, starves, freezes to death, or migrates. The General leading the army that commits this horrible crime receives no repercussions - not even a negative trait.

Warrior Poet: The Norse and Germanic faction leaders speak in kennings, which makes them sound like this. Of course, this is really done just to make their badass-boasts sound cooler. For instance, war is referred to as "sword-bite" and "shield-crash".

Sole Survivor: The "Age of Charlemange" Campaign provides two of these. First is the Emirate of Cordoba founded by the Umyyad Prince Abd al-Rahman, who fled Damascus after the Abbasids murdered his entire family. Also in Iberia, we have The Kingdom of Asturias, founded by the Visigothic Nobleman Pelagius after Muslims invaded the Visigothic and Suebian Kingdoms.

Pyrrhic Victory
 Total War: Attila (Video Game) / int_ad9fbc1e
comment
Pyrrhic Victory: Aside from the usual "won but took excessive casualties in the process" also present in previous games, it's possible to successfully take or defend a city, only to realize that many, if not all, of the buildings have burned down during the siege, thus making the ravaged city a resource and time-consuming liability.

The Alans are the finest horsemen in the world, and that includes the Huns. The broken and scattered children of Sarmatia, the Alans likewise do have foot soldiers, but they receive a special bonus to horse units, and also have some of the statistically most powerful horsemen in the game. While Cataphracts are more iconically associated with the Romans and Persians, the Alans' Sarmatian Cataphracts are superior to the original Persian model, and some are even archers as well. The patch to their unit roster emphasized this; now they have no dedicated spear infantry or foot archers at all, but a lot of cavalry choices.

Armor-Piercing Attack
 Total War: Attila (Video Game) / int_afc8ddc7
comment
Armor-Piercing Attack: Armor-piercing damage in the game will cause that damage to hit targets immediately, without any chance of armor reducing it. The primary weapons that are your best bet against armored units are axes and javelins (which also do so much normal damage that odds are good most of its damage will not be stopped by armor anyway). Crossbows are much less common, but are practically made for going through armor. Pikes don't really do a lot of damage in general, but almost all of it is armor-piercing. All archer units have access to heavy shot which fires much slower, but does more damage and armor-piercing damage, and the fairly common Precision Shot ability for ranged units, which gives their temporary higher damage a chance to largely bypass heavy armor. Siege weapons of course will probably obliterate anyone they hit. Additionally, bonus damage based on unit type (such as spears against cavalry or elephants or heavy shot arrows against infantry) ignores armor entirely.

The Cycle of Empires
 Total War: Attila (Video Game) / int_b36123ce
comment
The Cycle of Empires: The Western Roman Empire at the start of the game is in the Decay Phase. By The Battle of Ravenna, one of the game's playable Historical Battles, it is already in the Long Night as you find yourself commanding a Western Roman Army with the goal of defeating an Ostrogothic force led by Odoacer. Losing the battle (as the Romans did in real life) will mark an end to the Western Roman Empire, and winning the battle is implied to reforge Rome in fire and steel cause it to re-enter the Expansion Phase. By The Last Roman Campaign, The Western Roman Empire is completely gone. The only hope is Belisarius choosing to break away from the Eastern Roman Empire and attempting to reforge the Western Roman Empire by himself. The Eastern Roman Empire, while also declining in power, is much easier to stabilize (as happened historically). During "The Last Roman" campaign, they are in a new Expansion phase under Justinian.

comment
Another one for the Geats: there is a character by the name of Gautrek whose wife is deceased and thus suffers from the Heartbroken trait as a result. This is a reference to Gautrek's saga, where historically Gautrek fell into a depression due to the death of his wife. This probably also doubles as Genius Bonus, given how few people would recognise it. Bonus points if you remarry him to a character with the Shieldmaiden trait.

Otherwise, each faction within those culture packs has the exact same selection of units.

Promoted to Playable: From Barbarian Invasion: Played straight with the Ostrogoths, zigzagged with the Sarmatians (there is no longer a "Sarmatian" faction, as it has been turned into more accurate tribal confederations, of which the Alans (who were represented by Rebels in BI) are playable, though all the others are (as of yet) unplayable), inverted with the Alemanni (initially) and an exaggerated example with the White Huns who were only present on some of the leftover game files. With DLC taken into consideration, played straight with the Norsemen (represented by the Saxons in BI (they're now divided into the Geats, Danes, and Jutes), Celts (now represented by the Ebdanians, Picts, and Caledonians), Burgundii, and Lombardi. Inverted in a different case with the Roxolani and Armenia, who were playable in Total War: Rome II but aren't playable here (yet). The Empire of Sand DLC makes the Aksum, Himyar, and Lahkmids who are mere side factions to playable ones.

Real Men Love Jesus: The Christian factions fit this. In this World of Badass, they show that the followers of the new faith are capable of surviving and thriving. Subverted by the observation that players who play as the Roman empires have a better chance of surviving and thriving if they merely pay lip service to the religion, or convert to another religion. note Christian buildings cost money in upkeep; players have discovered that they can easily resolve the Western Roman Empire's financial woes simply by leveling every church in the empire.

comment
Hold the Line: In the Main Campaign, the army of the Roman Empire is greatly overstretched. The result is that very often, the only people defending a Roman city or town during an attack will be the local garrison. However, these outnumbered and beleaguered units CAN still successfully defend by taking advantage of choke-points. The Limitari Border-guards actually invoke this trope: they are meant to pin invaders down long enough for one of the main armies to finish them off. Generals with the Confident Defender traits note Confident Defender, Good Defense, Superior Defender and Gate Keeper traits note Gate Keeper, Like the Pillar, None Shall Pass! excel in this sort of combat.

Generic Doomsday Villain
 Total War: Attila (Video Game) / int_c250346f
comment
Generic Doomsday Villain: Attila's a badass villain, no doubt and the game magnificently plays up his aura of menace and dread, but the guy's still pretty much portrayed as inhumanly evil. His end goal is presented more or less as wanting to destroy the world just to watch it burn, with no exploration of any other motivation or driving goal. His time as a Roman hostage is also glossed over. Nevertheless, a lot of this may be due to the fact that the game narrative device seems to be of a historian recounting past events and thus presenting Attila as a monster. In the game itself, you can talk to the guy and he's pretty honorable so long as you're on his good side. This trope is enforced by the Huns' Victory Objectives. Sack twenty five cities, exterminate five factions, gain 75000 gold from raiding, and maintain 80 units. The only thing about The Huns that can be seen as even remotely good is that they, unlike Migration factions, cannot build Slave Trading buildings in their hordes. Lampshaded by Attila in the Ashen Horse trailer, where he mentions the bad rap history has given him. He also makes it very clear that he doesn't give a shit.

Shout-Out
 Total War: Attila (Video Game) / int_c75df49a
comment
Shout-Out: There are so many damn ones in this game, many of them to other barbarian themed fiction, that it's not even funny. One of the unit responses after ordering a Barbarian/Norse army to raid is "We shall hear the lamentation of their women!" There's another one in the flavour text for the Inexorable Warband perk — "Crush your enemies and see them driven before you!" Yet another one! What's a possible name for a Barbarian Kingdoms or Norsemen warband? The Children of Doom. Hell, you can even get a screwy looking snake-and-sun standard! It can't be coincidence that one of the banner options for a Barbarian/Norse army looks suspiciously like the Wheel of Pain amulet? Your Barbarian or Norsemen army can also be called "The Trees of Woe". Crucifying your enemies has never been so badass. Your commander's misshapen? He is not an animal! He is a man! A commander with the Fearless Warrior perk moves for NO man. The final army perk for the Barbarians is Furor Barbaricus, which is an actual Graeco-Latin term which basically translates to "fury of the barbarian", but is probably also a reference to the Heidevolk song, Furor Teutonicus. Which is about the same thing. One of the traits in the Hunnic general trees has this delightful flavour text: "For I beheld him, as he fell from heaven LIKE LIGHTNING!" The Irresolute trait has the flavor text "Yes. No. Maybe. I don't know!", which is most of the opening verse for They Might Be Giants' "Boss of Me" song, which was used as the theme song for Malcolm in the Middle. A common refrain from Roman units upon selection is "Heaven can wait!", which is possibly referencing some song or another with that title. The Ruse Skill for Heroes says "Look over there! A three-headed monkey!" The descriptions for buildings in the fur production tree contain lyrics from "Hungry Like the Wolf" by Duran Duran. Namely, the descriptions for the tier 1 and tier 2 buildings are "In touch with the ground. On the hunt." and "Stalked in the forest, too close to hide." There's an ancillary called the Heroic Germanic Warrior. What's the flavour text for it? "If it bleeds, we can kill it!". That's right, you can get Arnold (or one of his ancestors) to aid you in this game. A possible name for a Barbarian Kingdoms/Norsemen warband is The Brothers of Metal. Needless to say, such an army is clearly destined to be the single most badass fighting force in all history. Once again, one of the generic names for Celtic armies is The Rolling Menhirs (Menhirs are standing stones that were religiously significant to ancient Celtic peoples). The text for the last trait of a Germanic/Norse general is this: "This man became legend, legend became myth." One of the possible names for a Germanic/Norse warband is one to Warcraft of all things — the Frost Wolves. The description for the Dreaded Reavers tradition says "We are your salvation through destruction.", a take on Harbinger from Mass Effect 2's "That which you know as Reapers are your salvation through destruction." line A possible Hunnic warband can be named "The Steppe Wolves", which may or may not be a reference to Steppenwolf. Description for the Exclucatores (javelinmen): "These men have a particular set of skills. They will find you, and they will kill you." One achievement asks you to embezzle 10,000 credits, and is labelled as 'Resting In My Account'. Stock comments of the Sassanid spies include: "All men must serve" and "A man has many faces". The Roman Military tech, Language of Comradeship, reads By all that you hold dear on this good earth, I bid you stand! The description for the 'Cavalry Commander' trait reads "Half a league, half a league, half a league onwards!" In The Last Roman campaign, the Roman Expedition starts with two armies. They are called The Watchmen and The Brave Companions. The first line of the description for the Tanukhids Mavia's Chosen unit is "Her name is a killing word". The marketing for the Celts Culture Pack features female archers for the Caledonians, a reference to Brave. One of the archers shown in the promotional photos even bears a striking resemblance to Merida (due to having the same hairstyle and hair color). In the Age of Charlemange campaign, characters can take the 'Motivator' skill. It's description reads "I believe in you. Don't believe in you, believe in ME who believes in you".

Death of the Old Gods
 Total War: Attila (Video Game) / int_d2a11313
comment
Death of the Old Gods: All of the campaigns in this game involve the rise of Christianity and the decline of pagan faiths. In the main campaign, Greco-Roman Paganism has been usurped by Christianity as the religion of the Roman Empire, and it is very slowly but surely losing its following. Likewise, most of the Germanic tribes almost always abandon Germanic Paganism and adopt Christianity sooner or later. Celtic Paganism is likewise under threat in Britain, though with the Celtic kingdoms' corner position and Roman Britain on the verge of collapse, it has a much better chance of survival. Though this can be averted (The Romans can convert cities to Greco-Roman Paganism with Theaters, while the Germanic and Celtic tribes can conquer lands and build temples). Ironically, many players prefer to go native as the Western Roman Empire and convert to another religion when they get the opportunity since the Latin Christian churches they initially use incur a taxing maintenance cost. In The Last Roman, Greco-Roman Paganism is almost finished off and Germanic Paganism is not even present (all the Germanic tribes present had converted to Christianity by this point). And you can't even convert as Theaters no longer convert people to Greco-Roman Paganism. In Age of Charlemagne, Greco-Roman Paganism and Celtic Paganism have both been completely eradicated. Germanic Paganism (now just called "paganism") is on the decline as Charlemagne's empire invades Saxony and forces them to accept Christianity.

Salt the Earth: Razing undefendable provinces to deny their benefits to the enemy is a valid strategy, as they will have to invest far more resources and time into rebuilding it than if they captured it relatively intact. You also get some extra money for doing so. However, the razed province will permanently lose a fertility point, which, with the climate decline, will make untouched provinces far more worthy.

Anti-Frustration Features
 Total War: Attila (Video Game) / int_d6f284a3
comment
The royal families of every faction has the ability to choose the heir AND to adopt generals into the family, and when the faction leader dies, the entire realm passes to the new Faction Leader. In real life, several of the factions depicted (such as the Franks) had gavelkind inheritance (the realm and its wealth are divided among the ruler's surviving sons). The exclusion of different inheritance restrictions is likely an Anti-Frustration Features as losing 3/4 of your kingdom upon your ruler's death could very easily ruin the game.

Lightning Bruiser: Particularly good Heavy Cavalry is this, of course, but in a faction-wide example, one thing that makes the Huns (and by extension, the White Huns) so terrifying and so hard to fight isn't just that they're strong and able to frighten your units, but also that they're fast. Their cavalry is among the speediest in the game (none of their cavalry units have speed stats below 80) as well as being among the most hard-hitting, with standout examples at the top of their tech trees include the Nokkors, the First Wave Lancers, and Devil Archers.

comment
Historical Villain Upgrade: There are sadly a few examples. Attila The Hun in The Main Campaign is portrayed as an Omnicidal Maniac bent on destroying the world just to watch it burn. While most historians today agree he was something of a monster, this game leaves out the few good things about him and greatly oversimplifies his motivations. No Freudian Excuse for Attila! Emperor Justinian in The Last Roman campaign is portrayed as a spoilt brat holding Belisarius back from the greatness he deserves. In truth, Justinian was a genius in his own right and counted Belisarius among not only his best allies but also his closest friends.

Nerf: Compared to Rome II, agents are now harder to recruit and they become harder to train note  In Rome II, agents can be recruited in any region once the appropriate technology has been researched. They also are flexible from the start: able to deploy in territory (both friendly or otherwise) or attach themselves to friendly armies. In Attila, agents are recruited from buildings and their flexibility reduced, forcing further investment in their recruitment buildings (which may allow them to start at higher levels and thus with greater flexibility when recruited), or exposure by leveling them "in the field". Age of Charlemagne nerfed fisheries so that they only produce food.

The main campaign focuses on the fall of Rome and the violent closing of Classical Antiquity that gave way to the Late Antiquity. An ice age is driving the Barbarian Tribes south across Rome's borders in search of more fertile lands, while the Huns pillage and burn everything in sight. Rome is losing its advanced construction technology, its roads, its waterworks and its old Greco-Roman pagan religion, and the entire empire is reorganizing itself around the Church, sowing the seeds that will give way to the feudal system that will dominate Europe in the coming centuries.

Early-Bird Cameo: After a fashion. The Norse peoples are not only playable but are also depicted as increasingly resembling the infamous Vikings of later centuries. It's not for nothing the DLC pack to play their factions is titled "Viking Forefathers". The Eastern Roman Empire's socioeconomic transitions and unique units foreshadow its appearance in older Total War games as the Byzantine Empire. And by The Last Roman DLC, it's well underway. The Magyars and the Sclavenians, ancestors to the Hungarians and the Slavs respectively are minor factions in the game. Some of the factions in Age of Charlemagne were given traits and/or icons that foreshadow their appearance in the Low Middle Ages such as Barcelona or Bavaria.

Shown Their Work
 Total War: Attila (Video Game) / int_ffad4e9f
comment
Shown Their Work: Unlike Barbarian Invasion, the cities are smaller and more heavily fortified than in the earlier period covered by Rome and Rome II, which was a consequence of the Diocletian reforms and the continuous militarization of the Empire. For the Geats, the declared heir at the beginning of the game, just before Attila shows up, is Gizur, who lead the Geats against the Huns according to the Hervarar Saga. His son is Heidrek, but since Gizur has no wife it's clear that he's adopted, which is how it was in the Saga. Another one for the Geats: there is a character by the name of Gautrek whose wife is deceased and thus suffers from the Heartbroken trait as a result. This is a reference to Gautrek's saga, where historically Gautrek fell into a depression due to the death of his wife. This probably also doubles as Genius Bonus, given how few people would recognise it. Bonus points if you remarry him to a character with the Shieldmaiden trait. One of the main bonus objectives for the opening chapter of the game while playing as the Geats is to sack Rugion and Gothicscandza, which are located right where many historians believe is one of the candidates for the land known as Reidgotaland, the land which the Geatish king Dag supposedly pillaged in vengeance for the death of his sparrow. If you look closely at that picture of Attila, you'll notice his face is pretty heavily scarred, a reference to Jordane's description of the Hunnic people where he claimed that Hunnic mothers would ritualistically scar their children's cheeks, thus explaining the scarred look of the Hun.note This has actually been subjected to considerable scrutiny in more recent times (Jordanes' account is over a thousand years old), seeing as how later historians have posited that the scarring was not from birth, but actually done by adult warriors to themselves in order to mourn a fallen chieftain. It's also thought that it was far less severe than Jordanes described it. Given that Jordanes was a Goth, it's safe to take his depictions with a bit of salt since the Huns had been enemies of his people for generations. Another example is the very aspect of the cities in the Western Roman Empire: if you look carefully, the church is always the central building. This is because with the decline on the civil and urban service, the administration of the cities fell upon the bishops, who were at the time elected by the inhabitants of the cities. In contrast with Barbarian Invasion, armies no longer have anachronical helmets or armour, such as the Romans, Saxons or Norse, but rather the equipment that was available by the time period, such as the Attican Helmet, which was outdated by the Late Antiquity.
