    It is just too bad that Timegate ruined the sequel by changing the game and restricting freedom. Now that Timegate is defunct, perhaps someone will pickup the IP and give us a proper reboot/sequel.    … Expand

    A baby-step improvement, not a must-have for owners of the first game.

    A new way to look at RTS games and a great story that may change how you view those "other" RTS games.
