How it feels

Commanding vast armies with deliberate, tactical planning across multi-level terrain feels like a methodical chess match of ancient warfare.

What players say

Players say the AI cheats heavily, making some scenarios nearly impossible without save scumming. Missile units are overpowered with unlimited ammo, and the game crashes frequently for some.
