"Medieval 2 : Total War" : World map in multiplayer

[Utarefson]

I was thinking whether or not i should buy Medieval 2:Total War.
One important part of this decision is the multiplayer.
Does the multiplayer mode have a turnbased worldmap?
And if not, do you know any other games with a turnbased worldmap and realtime fights?

I don't think it does, imagine if someone went AFK, or decided to grief by doing nothing for ages.

I know Rise of Nations has a turnbased worldmap, and you can choose whether to fight the battles or let them resolve themselves.
And if you're looking for a good MP RTS experience, then Company of Heroes is for you.

No and Heroes of Might and Magic has turnbase/realtime multiplayer but it has NOTHING to do with the Total War games.

 

[The Infamous Scamola]

No, but if you have a good computer I would recommend skipping Medieval and going straight for Empire.

Thanks for all those quick answers, i think i'll take a look at rise of nations.
