    If you like this style of game it's right for you. But stay away if you never had played this type of game before unless your are willing to give a lot of time into it.

    The only thing that disappointed me was the removal of the imprison command...I loved letting the captured officers rot in a cell until they came begging for a chance to redeem themselves.

    Excellent! This is definitely an acquired taste, but for those who have this 'acquired' taste, they're in for an amazingly fun and addicting treat. For those who don't have this 'acquired' taste, they'll experience a serious disappointement. I, on the other hand, AM the acquired taste!

    The game does get very dry... first when u start u think its really hard.. so u dont even try then after u get bored with everything u play it. then it gets fun and dont get any sleep to play it. then the next day also u play. after u lose like crazy u giv up and throw it away but still its a great game and very interesting and its nothing educational...

    This is one of those special types of games out there. Chances are, you'll either love it, or seriously dislike it. If you're the kind of person who enjoys stress and other long-running strategy based games, you'll love this game. It will challenge you like few you've ever played. If you want hack and slash action, this game will bore you quickly. The thing is, though, This is one of those special types of games out there.

I don't know of any game I've ever played that has as much replay value as this one. There are just so many different things that can happen and that you can do in this game, that it's impossible to grow tired of it. Give it a chance, and find out what it's like to have a game you can play for the next 6 months.… Expand

    You'll need the patience and interest to pour hours upon hours into the game, tirelessly tracking all your statistics as you slowly progress through the military and political ranks.

    The upgraded graphical presentation and more RPG-like aspect of upgrading characters and abilities really puts it over the top. [August 2002, p.22]

    A deep and time-consuming game. It isn’t everyone’s cup of tea, but it’s fun in a unique sort of way.
