    I`m an experienced strategy player and played all RTS games since 1996.
    Noticed the game some time ago, and still happy to play it.
    The best balance between units i have ever seen before, deep customization, helpful advisers, racial variety, interesting battles, yes, i like that!

    Seems good so far! There is much unit customization, and it is fun having battles with multiple players at a time. The graphics are great, I have not seen rts mmo's with graphics these neat for some time, and it is rewarding seeing the equipment you put on your units show up on them in battle. I can see hardcore gamers that are fans of Shogun, Mount and Blade, or League of Legends seeingSeems good so far!

I can see hardcore gamers that are fans of Shogun, Mount and Blade, or League of Legends seeing this game fun and competetive. What's even better is doing a 4v4 match with armies via skype with some freinds, it's interesting to see all of the comotion and strategy that takes place when players control large armies. You can buy stuff in game with real money, but what is cool is you can pay for the stuff via money you make in game anyways, and so far the costs don't seem too rediculous at all. Not only that, but there is a persistant map in which you can have clans battle over, I have engaged in this very little, but it seems like a fun experience. ALSO if you are a fan of Warhammer, I very very highly recommend this game, it seems like some of the lore itself is stemmed from it, and the gameplay mechanics are very similair.… Expand

    I like this game cause it gives both space for Strategy on Global Map and for Tactics on Battlefield.
    Also as a clan leader i feel myself a king of a small kingdom with real warlords inside, real diplomacy with other leaders, conflicts and so on. For me it does not lag at all, interface is pretty nice and easy to use.
    The best strategy game you can find now also with endless potential

There are no features in this game that cannot be accessed for free. The game features multiple races and is a real thrill to play. It basically follows the format of the Total War games, but with a massive online twist. Unfortunately, the graphics are somewhat dated but this is a fair trade off for having eight players and hundreds of units on the field at a time. In addition, the back story of the series could seriously do with some fleshing out, as it is an extremely generic fantasy setting at the moment. This game might not be for everyone, both those who enjoy table top war games will love it!

    As another example of what this game is like, this is essentially WarHammer turned into a computer game :)    … Expand

    I've got the 45'th lvl today, and the game is still exciting and interesting for me. Clan management, conquering new territories, opening new units and new clothes for them - it seems that you'll never get tired of that. Moreover with every new patch and modification the game becomes more and more interesting. I've never seen the game that offers something similar online.

    Painful to play, poor interface control and execution. I can hardly see where the enjoyment comes in this game unless you simply like your units to tell you "yes m'lord." Purchases prices are very high and effect gameplay significantly.

    I will never understand why people think it's okay to release/publish a game that has very dated graphics while lagging and eating resources like (6GB RAM, 3,2 GHz quadcore) like it was the most complex simulation on earth.

    I didn't really like it as a free to play. Purchase prices are really high, and give too much of an advantage. Matchmaking is kinda poor: I often found myself paired with a few other newbs against seasoned players with 50 more units, with most unit being the upgraded version of what we had. The controls seems to have forgotten the total war series, and the graphics are really obsolete.I didn't really like it as a free to play.

    For an RTS this is a decent game. There are some unique aspects to the strategy for controlling units and utilizing them best against opposing units. If you can grasp that some units are better against specific types of units and play them accordingly, you will find enjoyment and success with this game.

    A great strategi fantasy game, good balance in units and epic battles, i see this as the fantasy version of totalwar with same tactics and gameplay in the battles, but without the city management.

    u can earn crystals ingame through daily and global clan map system so anyone who puts the time into it can buy anything in the game, gear, units and premium membership, and there are 50% on some units and gear each that changes each two weeks, so i dont get why people give this a 0 or 1 score on that reason?    … Expand

    Great customisation and a compelling clan war layer, but the multiplayer just isn't interesting enough to support them. [Aug 2012, p.96]

    World of Battles: Morningstar offers rewarding real-time strategy depth and tactics at a good price, at least initially.
