Total War Fantasy is a good introduction into Total War games and Warhammer Fantasy. The initial buy-in cost is pretty high, but it isn't as high as it seems. You do need both base games of TWH1 and TWH2, and maybe a few DLCs for your favorite factions, but you don't require all of them, if at all.
The gameplay is fun and there's a very high level of attention to details. The entire development team put a lot of effort into this game and it shows. That being said, it is very taxing on most computer systems, and it does have some high minimum requirements. If you can run this game, its well worth its price, though I recommend waiting for sales if you want to buy DLC.
