At first, I downloaded the game and spent 2-3 hours, then uninstalled it. I thought i was not in the mood for an RTS, wanted something more tactical. Later on, I had the urge to try it again without knowing why. Fast forward to 30+ hours now, I can say this game is worth every penny! The clans have significant differences and every gameplay is not the same. Mechanics push you towards that clan's strengths and you build around that. There is a high tactical element, as enemies cannot invade your inner areas before they conquer the starting ones, which means there is time to prepare if someone attacks. Moreover, you don't have the RTS component of destroying one building then leaving, then again the same etc. It is indeed a mix of Settlers, Civilization, Warcraft3 (relics etc) & AOE. I won't keep going about the game mechanics, just buy the game and experience it. Coming from a person who initially thought this game is not worth it, trust me, it does!
