You'll also get Patches 16, 17, 18/Power & Politics, 19 and 20/Ancestral Update automatically downloaded when you install.

Many, many AI controlled factions in the Grand Campaign upgraded with their rosters from the paid DLC, so you get to fight against them and only need the DLC to play as them.

6 Free DLC factions ( Pontus, Seleucid, Baktria, Armenia, Getae, Massilia).

Imperator Augustus Free Campaign (10 playable factions in that.).

Patches 1 - 15 (including the Patch 15/Emperor Edition major overhaul.).Rome II Base Game (8 playable factions, Rome, Carthage, Macedon, Iceni, Arverni, Suebi, Parthia, Egypt.).Hope it helps.Įmperor Edition contains the base game and all the free content, specifically: Steam Summer Sale will be June, and before that they might do a Total War sale for when the new Warhammer DLC (April 17th) or Three Kingdoms (May 23rd) come out.Īnd I've included my quick guide below, as there's sometimes confusion about what's in Emperor Edition. If you're quick, you can still grab it in the Humble Bundle sale for 75% off: īut it's only for another 40 minutes or so.ĮDIT: But even if you miss it, sales on Rome 2 are pretty regular on legitimate sites and Steam Store, so if you don't want to rush into things (very wise) then there'll be another sale in the next couple of months. Plenty to keep you going till at least the next sale.

And the Imperator Augustus campaign is another large campaign with 10 playable factions. You basically have 14 factions to play in the main Grand Campaign, covering the major players of the era, as well as some minors. In my view the base game alone offers a lot, especially with the amount of free content they've added since. So the question is this: is Total War: Rome 2 a complete and fun experience without the full suite of DLC? An if not, are there perhaps one or two pieces which are must-haves and the rest can come later?

However, I'm not exactly flush with cash, so the pile of DLC is quite intimidating, if it's any sort of barrier to entry. Originally posted by Zeabolos:Alright, so having cut my teeth on the TW: Warhammer games (which, to my understanding, trade strategic complexity for faction variety) I'm ready to try out a more 'traditional' Total War game, and everything I've found says that Rome 2 has been polished right up.
