"Wholly immersive time sink thats swallowed up entire weeks of my life. Does all the things you want from an MMO, even if it is derivative in many aspects."
"Good recreation of true battlefield dynamics, but poor historical referencing a other aspects ruin what could be a genius game. A good mod is neccessary (RTR or Europa Barbarorum)."
"Best of a good series, improved battle recreation and better campaign. Poor AI spoils what could be a perfect game. Mods again necessary to get the best out of it."
"A much needed shot in the arm to the series that improves on it in every way, new perspective works well and the games villains are much more threatening than plodding corpses."
