+1 - I used Rome 1 music mod, things were hundreds time better and my campaigns more pleasant. (1) Total War: WARHAMMER 2 - Dark Elves Battle Let's Play (2) Assault By Sea (Total War: Attila OST) +1 - Why do you think it creates good ambiance? I payed extra close attention to the soundtracks playing as different factions and there is no uniqueness, no 'Empire song' or 'Chaos song' it's all really similar and bland. This is probably my favorite score in the franchise, it's so damn beautiful It starts a little slow so if you want to go straight into the epicness then sk. +2 - Speaking of Paradox Interactive, pretty much all of the Stellaris music is awesome too, especially the Utopia expansion music! Cradle of the Galaxy is such a good track. Stellaris Utopia OST - Cradle of the Galaxy The undead are a great example how it goes from sounding like a creeping doom approaching to a desperate. While the songs on the campaign map are pretty forgettable and just something to fill out the background I really like the battle themes. (1) The Dead Shall Walk (Total War: Warhammer OST) (2) Heresy! (Total War: Warhammer OST) +5 - I prefer the OST from Heroes of Might and Magic 5, hear this FUCKING THEME! Videos in this thread: Watch Playlist ▶ VIDEO It sounds like Tim took some inspiration and arrangements from other Warhammer game soundtracks Warhammer Online, Mark of Chaos and Dawn of War come to mind. Tim Wynn's TW Warhammer soundtrack is quite good! Not quite up to Van Dyck's level but far better than Beddow's offerings. I guess they're fine for background music though.

I can't think of a single memorable track from any of the Total War games he's scored. I find Richard Beddow's work to be pretty generic and lackluster. I wonder if the time difference played a part? I don't believe think Jeff is based out of the UK.

Sounds like Jeff might have opted out or made it easy for CA to seek out another composer. I remember reading an interview with Jeff where he seemed somewhat relieved to stop working for CA/Sega because he couldn't deal with the constant requests for minute changes to the sound & score, especially at all hours of the day (I believe he was their audio director and not just the soundtrack composer). I listen to them regularly during my morning & evening commutes! I think his Rome & Shogun 2 soundtracks are absolutely top notch. The man has a genuine talent for composing catchy, memorable music. Jeff Van Dyck's music was an absolute force in every TW game he scored.
