I only played about 2 hours. While the price on GOG is pretty cheap compared to everywhere else at the moment, the game is too difficult to both play and understand, with no tutorial whatsoever. I can see how deep it is, and that thing's great, but once I declared war to a minor state and started fighting, I would lose every single attack even tho I had a high numerical advantage and the game showed me before each battle I was supposed to win or at least lose just a few men. I can understand the prediction not being entirely accurate and lose a few battles here and there even tho I'm expected to win, but every single one? I'm sure there's an explanation for it. But the game doesn't tell you, you have to figure it out or guess by yourself. If you're not willing to read the manual at least partially, don't buy this game. I refunded the game after playing 2 hours. Maybe one day I'll get it again, but not right now.
