    The battle graphics get the job done, but everything else is a wash. The game is simple to play and though it does try to complicate matters, does a poor job – which reveals the simplistic nature of this title.

    Unlike Total War, there is no strategic dimension to the map. It’s all just a linear series of tactical battles one after the other.
