Had it for a while now... is a very good game. Imagine Empire Earth but a whole lot better. I was confused that you don't have a 3d 360° view like Age of Mythology

I actually brought this game too, I've not payed for a game for a looooong time. I was glad I brought it too :)

Basically if you're into Age of Mythology, Age of Empire's etc, then you'll love this...

Nope.
I was Legion, and then at the very end I joined Knights (couse some guy in my galaxy wanted me to join it..).

My planet / ruler name that round wasnt anything with Zhukov.

I have it. Played it. Kinda liked it. Played it some more. Disliked it.

Its a fun game, but its gets really boring after a while. Its flawed 'multiplayer-wise' aswell I think.


For more real life comment you can contact me on IRC :D

Personally I think RON is crap, EE owns it completely. Why do I think its crap? It seems to focus too much on economy / upgrading and not that much on fighting. The fighting seems very spammy and kind of a battle of who can create the most units and send them to die most effectively.

Admittedly I have only played it twice (cant bring myself to play it again) but found nothing to endear it to me. Maybe there is something to it that I missed.

Its not a bad game, its just crap Multiplayer wise.

Singleplayer its kinda fun, and offers some historic lessons aswell :)

Multiplayer wise, its worthless. It lacks certain things nessecary to make multiplayer worthwhile. Like walls. Or any other means to effectively defend your base.

wc3 doesnt have walls, but they have towers, and its still a great multi game
RoN, you can garrison uints in buildings, making great defences.

i dont see how its hard to defend your base

The game looks like it's a good game when you see the screenshots and read the articles.
Took me 15 minutes to understand that the game is retarded and the creators should be sent cleaning seal shit off the rocks in northern norway.

Tried out the demo, RoN is not bad but seems to lack depth. Multiplayer looked shaky, so didn't bother to get the full game.

Never got round to finishing EE, gonna have to re-install it on my new comp.

Anyone looking forward to AoM expansion?
 

AOM expansion :-)
