The climate change is one of several reasons why the migrating barbarian hordes packed up their settled lifestyle and began pushing south and east, onto the Roman Empire. Temperatures plummeted, particularly in the north and east of Europe, where the shift was so bad crops failed and people died as their homes became completely inhospitable. Volcanic activity, and maybe even interference from space (no, really!), during the first millennium AD caused a dramatic shift in the weather across the world, or at the very least the ancient world. To coin an overused phrase, winter is on its way (I think that was it), and in Attila this takes the form of climate change.
I have been informed this is not the fertility I was thinking about, and so now I have to tell you about fertility in Attila instead. Yes, fertility! Take a seat and let me tell you all about it! In Attila, this is no different at the core of it, and yet there is one new mechanic that will hugely affect the way in which you approach your food generation and maintenance. In Total War it’s vital that you continue to keep your people stocked with that delicious consumable goodness so that they don’t starve, or revolt, or both.įood has long been the responsibility of the farmer in Total War (and, also, in real life, although I think they stole the idea from us) with the land being toiled for crops and animals to sustain empires. You just can’t.įor those of you who are unaware, food is a variety of edible substance that we as humans consume for sustenance and continued life. So with that in mind, we shall forge onwards!įood! Can’t live without it, can’t … actually no, that’s essentially it. Not long ago, we released our Barbarian Hordes Feature Spotlight, in which Craig’s sultry tones deal with the roaming migratory factions of Attila and briefly touches upon the subject of fertility and food. Today, however, we’ll be focusing in on some of the world mechanics that will be affecting you, and the potential ways you can deal with it. Last time we talked about the ways in which you can affect the world through diplomacy and the subterfuge of your agents.
Hello Total War aficionados! I’m back with another blog for you all, on some of the more juicy and revelatory issues that will be affecting your campaigns in Total War: Attila.
