The difference between a limited war and a total war is that a limited war has a specific goal and scope of focus, while a total war has no limits on the goals or targets involved. In a limited war, the focus is on destroying the enemy with a limited goal in mind, while a total war may involve numerous and specific goals with no limits on the targets. Additionally, in a limited war, there may be agreed-upon rules of engagement that restrict targeting civilians and infrastructure, while in a total war, there are no such restrictions and everything is considered a potential target.
