Endless Fun
First off, if you are into turn based strategy games and have not yet purchased this gem of a game, then it was either before your time or you are not as into turned based strategy games as you think. Others before me have noted that this is the best in the series, but there are a few major reasons for this: 1. Random Maps & Games - Think Civilization for this. For some reason, the other games in this series opted out of this for scenarios to build up a story. The problem, is after you finish all the other scenarios, you will always come back to this game because it's random and endless. Buy this game, have your friends play it, then challenge them to random matches of epic fun. 2. Music - I can't stress this enough. You will be playing this game for hours on end, so sub-par music would kill the fun and leave you muting it and listening to Pandora....but this game has great music. 3. Strategy - What makes chess a great game? Balance, and this game has it. Every class is competitive, and once the monsters get too easy for your strategy, you bump up their bonuses, simple. I would rank this game above Panzer General because of the Hero quality, but below Civilization IV because of Civ's online community and graphics. It is equal to Master of Orion 2, but less complicated
