Looks like a real gem for turn-based fans! Can't wait to get my hands on it:-)

You describe the game as "yet another shiny coaster" but your review gives it much more credit than that. I spent most of the review confused by this initial statement.
"I open the packaging and raise a quizzical eyebrow at them while wondering if I'm about to unearth an almost missed classic or yet another shiny coaster."
I think it's pretty clear, I was saying I'd never heard of it before I recieved my review copy and I had no idea if it was going to great or rubbish... No confusion there...

I'm still confused with this game, because of two things:
- Haven't yey found how to undo a move (dumb me?...) - if this does not exist, then game is doomed, would be a first (and a last, for sure).
- Sore eyes trying to figure out what those tiny units are, compared with the size of terrain & buildings. I really miss the old isometric 2D - or the basic and pleasant 3D of SSI's (oh what a shame they disappeared!) Panzer General 3 games. So far, in turn-based games, this is the best for me (still play it).
As for the graphical aspect, I must say that I was expecting more - but a bright 2D would be more welcome, my eyes don't live well with all those many shades...
As for the gameplay, it is too complicated in certain aspects (too many units for the same job)and the camapign puts too many restrictions until too late on the units you can buy.
And, of course, there is the undo thingy that I have not yet found... and find nowhere.
I must be dumb, damn!... Where's the Undo feature?...

i dont think that u r right paul video games should be blamed for this and i am willing to debate against them whenever i get the chance
