'''Medieval: Total War''' ('''MTW'''), is a computer strategy game where the player builds a dynastic empire in medieval Europe, North Africa, and the Middle East. Gameplay is both strategic and tactical, with grand strategy played out in turn-based fashion on a province-by-province level, somewhat like the 1980 board game ''Empires of the Middle Ages'', while military units of varying types and capabilities fight against each other in real time on a tactical map.
