    Lords is a nice change from the type of gameplay that WCIII created. I actually had to learn new strategies for this RTS. Glad to see someone is taking on the Blizzard goliath.

    Thought it was going to be a rip-off, but it turned out pretty good. Hopefully the subsequent versions will be even better for now I have to just give it a flat 8. :)

    Provides a nice step forward in the RTS genre with leveling occuring with EVERY unit. Well balanced and is just plain fun.

    Single player game is very solid, though i only just started it. Multiplayer is fun.

    This is a game for true RTS fans. Has a look all it's own, definitely not a clone of anything I've seen. Unit leveling and advancement is a huge plus and really makes the game play like a true RTS should.

    More than a Warcraft knock-off. A real treat and a new look at the way RTS's will be played.

    The ability to develop individual units, in addition to a central lord, makes the game an attractive offering for those seeking compensation for their gameplay efforts.

    This would be an OK title worthy of rental (if such a thing were possible for PC), but Warcraft III still blows the game away. Get that instead.

    Goes a long way in making EverQuest accessible to casual RTS fans. Hardcore fans on the other hand could find the game to be too simple, and focused on too small a scale. Creation of units is slow, and mines run out often, so if you don’t mind expanding your force for most of the mission you will find an entertaining game in Lords of Everquest.
