Total War: Attila is the newest game in the venerable Total War historic RTS genre. It's the game for armchair generals everywhere. The new game will feature a number of new feature to let said armchair generals general as hard as they can. For example, you'll be able to do things like decimate, Roman Empire style, your units when they misbehave (Roman decimation, if you don't know, means taking a unit and executing every 10th man to send a message to everyone else).

THE RED HORSE OF WAR RIDES IN NEW CINEMATIC TRAILER FOR TOTAL WAR: ATTILA
As the old power of Rome starts to crumble, there is opportunity in being the aggressor for those who seek it. In this latest cinematic trailer from Total War??: ATTILA, we see the Sassanid Empire exploiting the confusion around it and striking out in war on its neighbors.
The game itself will contain a number of new features around army management and waging war to bring further depth to this key aspect of the Total War experience. Most notably, players will have to consider the very real risks of keeping their armies in line against mounting losses, disloyal generals and fragmented food supplies.
A rogue commander can entice other wavering characters to mutiny, one of the triggers at play in the rich, new civil war system. Dark times call for dark measures, and amongst a variety of tactics players can employ to reduce the risk of such division, the brutal Roman practice of 'Decimation' (the systematic slaughtering of a tenth of an army) will restore temporary order at a high price.
