However, it appears Pyro is aiming to provide a faster-paced game, where tactical prowess and technical innovation are more important facets of leadership than managing a civilian population. Unlike Rome, Imperial Glory's turn-based campaign will be set across strictly-bordered regions (a la Shogun/Medieval), which may seem a regressive step after sampling Rome's more tactical method of grand warfare. Although the game features a nowįamiliar blend of turn-based campaigning and real-time 3D, the major difference is that rather than sword and arrow, the currency of carnage here is lead shot and shrapnel, fired across both land and sea. The line being referred to is of course a histoneal timeline, for Imperial Glory is set squarely during a period when established European empires were squabbling over new and old world alike. I think that Rome improves Medieval, and Medieval improves Shogun, but Imperial Glory is on a different line.
"To be honest," says Pyro's communications manager Inigo Vinos, I don't think Imperial Glory will improve the (Total War) formula - it's a different composition. Imperial Glory presents a glorious technicolour Napoleon-era strategy romp with detailed troops going at each other with state-of-the-art (at this time in history) muskets and cannons. Although Spain's premier developer is dismissive of any comparisons between Impenal Glory and The Creative Assembly's magnificent Rome: Total War, it clearly has plans to ambush the RTS superpower before it can gather its troops for an expansion pack. Pyro Studios, responsible for Praetorians and the Commando franchise (see left) is understandably quite excited about its forthcoming strategy project Imperial Glory.
