Nice and polished experience. Of course there are parts of game design I personally did not like but definitely totally enjoyable game nonetheless.
Not a perfect game so ***** is a bit of a stretch, but played it almost in one breath and kept returning to it at every possibility. Pros Interesting historical settings (but NOT historically accurate) Well balanced strategical and tactical part Nice art, very atmospheric Great cut scenes, one of the best I have seen in game (and I have seen a lot :)) Cons Even if length is solid (about 40h), last third is boring except for the missions Poor tactical AI Tactical part can be cheesed easily, there are only few mildly difficult parts Strategical part is too repetitive and straightforward. Randomization is not enough in quantity and quality. Lot of unused potential there. Also can be cheesed in ridiculous way. Apple pie anyone?
