Let me just start that the game really feels refreshed after this dlc and it is worth it`s price. It contains great content and I really enjoy fighting in the arena, all new weapon/armor sets, the holy war event and some south related quests like for example indebted revolts. The problem started, when I encountered the handgunners; yes after couple of battles I have applied new tactics, but a note to the devs: these guys are waaaay OP :) Either they should fire each consecutive turn, or with decreased accuracy, as my line can`t withstand the volleys at 60-65% chance to hit totally melting armor. Apart from that little issue, the best DLC so far.
What the game is really good about it`s that feeling of being a simple legionary and not that important hero, ready to save the world. It is also very well prepared when it comes to historical accuracy. I would easily compare this production to FTL, a nice leisure after work; but if you are a person that doesn`t like to loose don`t buy it! If you think that WOT or XCom RNG are annoying, this game will change your mind :) After maiking you fail a couple of 60 - 90% tests in a row, it will also punish heavily, even when you do everything right. Recommended when on sale and for people who don`t loose their nerves that easy, but I really like it.
First, don`t expect this tiltle to be an RPG game; it`s more like a novel watched and played. Yes, your choices don`t matter that much and if you think this is an anime Mass Effect, you can be dissapointed. But the story is as epic as fighting against the reapers. The characters are great, the plot twists are amazing, I was brainwashed like after watching "Fight Club" movie or that KOTOR scene when Revan took his mask off. Gameplay is really good for a turn based strategy/tactics fan like me, as you need to really plan your turn. (I would add some description on enemy units, as it`s hard to tell what to expect from the new ones appearing during game progress). What`s missing? The next part of the game. I would buy it immediately if available.
