Napoleon: Total War Announced [Aug 19, 2009, 09:27 am ET]

SEGA announces Napoleon: Total War (not to be confused with Commander: Napoleon at War), saying the next installment in the Total War series of real-time strategy games from Creative Assembly is due in February, 2010. The Napoleon: Total War Product Section is live with a trailer and some screenshots, IGN has an early Napoleon: Total War Preview, and here's a bit from the announcement, which references the "turn-based campaign":

LONDON & SAN FRANCISCO (August 19th, 2009) – SEGA Europe Ltd. and SEGA of America, Inc. today announced Napoleon: Total War, the first in an all-new story driven branch of The Creative Assembly’s multi award winning Total War RTS franchise. Napoleon: Total War will keep the franchise’s genre-leading 3D battles on land and sea. The turn-based campaign is split into three different story-driven campaigns, telling the story of the rise and fall of Napoleon Bonaparte through his most famous battles.

In Napoleon: Total War, aspiring generals have the chance to play as the legendary French general Napoleon Bonaparte or as one of his opposing factions. Battling through his three biggest military campaigns, the game will take you through Italy and Egypt, narrating the early years of the fearsome commander, while the third campaign will tell the story of his fateful drive towards Moscow and, ultimately, his showdown with the Duke of Wellington at one of the most famous battles of all – The Battle of Waterloo.
