Our Comments:

A pretty interesting strategy game that can be really challenging at times, often in a good way, though occasionally in ways that are a little perplexing. Free DLC has been released several times since the games release, which is always a good plus. Very much for the heavily strategy and tactics oriented, considering this is one of those games where knowing the details of how your units work and how they are most effective is the way to go. It may seem like you are presented with an overwhelming amount of information with no real way to figure things out, but make sure to give the first several single player missions a go, as they have instructions sprinkled within.
